small ears
Petite hearing organs
Small ears are ears that are notably compact or undersized relative to typical proportions.
The phrase usually describes a physical feature: The breed is known for its small ears and short snout.
Someone with small ears may be said to have delicate or refined features.
Figuratively rare, though have small ears occasionally means being unreceptive to gossip or complaints—the opposite of having big ears.
