English diminutives are very rudimentary and irregular compared to inflected languages.

In some language you can form several levels of diminutives from any noun. Even stuff that makes no sense, like "cute taxes", "cute death", "cute abstraction", "cute declension".

And you can form the opposite - take a noun and create less cute/uglier/larger version of it.

And these additional forms still obey the other rules, including declension. So there's a combinatorial explosion of versions of each word.
