(Scotland, Ireland, North England, NZ) smallness.
- weeness70%
The state or quality of being wee — tiny, small, diminutive. Used across Scotland, Ireland, northern England, and New Zealand, weeness captures smallness with a warmth that words like 'smallness' or 'tininess' simply lack. You might comment on the weeness of a newborn's fingers, a cramped flat, or an absurdly small portion at a fancy restaurant. It carries affection as much as description.
