teeny-weeny
Barely there sized
Teeny-weeny means extremely small—tinier than tiny.
The playful reduplication emphasizes smallness, often with affection or humor: just a teeny-weeny bit of cake, a teeny-weeny spider.
The word belongs to casual speech, especially with children.
Also spelled teeny-weeny or teenie-weenie.
