edit

-ül

  1. offspring,young(of ananimal), youngorganism(animal or plant) (e.g.,torül= young bull,bullock;kunül= young cow,heifer;lupül=wolf cub)
  2. Hypocoristicor used to denote affection for the noun.(e.g.,Samül=Sammy)

Usage notes

edit
  • In many languages, the diminutive form of a word can also be used to denote not (just) littleness but (also) affection or intimacy (for the word'sreferent), whereas in Volapük this secondary meaning of the diminutive is split off, since Volapük attempts, somewhat likeLojban,to avoidpolysemy.
