The question required the candidates to define a Diminutive, mention the types and use them in sentences. Thus:

a) Tsigilau kalma ce ta nahawu da ake amfani da ita wajen nuna ?an?antar abu, kamar ?an da ‘yan da ‘yar.

b) - Dan karamin yaro ya bace. - Ta zuba kaya cikin ‘yar karamar jaka. - Wadansu ‘yan yara sun yi ta’adi. - Wata ‘yar yarinya ta fadi. - Ta ba shi abinci dan kadan.

Many candidates attempted the question and their performance was encouraging.
