Affixes for hundoj
I'm a turbo beginner and still trying to get a feel for how the affixes work, and was wondering about the use of diminutive-ish affixes beyond their literal meaning. EX. in English, I will affectionately call my dog "doggy", or "puppy" even though she's an adult, and am curious to know how to express this sentiment in Esperanto. I was wondering if "hundido" can work similarly to "puppy", or if -id- doesn't carry over that sense of cuteness and it would just be weird because she isn't literally a hundido. Maybe "hundeto"? But she's also not particularly small, so maybe similar problem. I've not yet seen the explicitly affectionate affixes used outside of names and familial terms so perhaps it's not permissible, but maybe hunjo..? Hundinjo?
Dankon!
