SMALL
Big ve large sözcüklerinin en yaygın zıt anlamlısı olarak small kullanılır. Little ise başka bir sıfatla yanyana kullanıldığında ufaklık kavramının yanısıra duygu da ifade eder:
 a horrible little man
 a lovely little girl
 a nice little house.
 Small sıfatının üstünlük dereceleri smaller ve smallest olup, genellikle rather, quite ve very gibi sözcüklerle yanyana kullanılır:
 My flat is smaller than yours.
 The village is quite small.
 a very small car.
 Little ise bu sözcüklerle pek kullanılmaz ve bu bağlamda üstünlük derecesi de yoktur. Hem tiny, hem de minute /maɪˈnjuːt  / çok küçük anlamına gelirler.
