    Slavic languages do this too, augmentative forms are quite common when emphasizing the size and bulkiness of something

    Many Slavic languages also have double diminutives, where you apply multiple diminutive suffixes onto a word

    For example, in Polish, dzwoń (bell) becomes dzwonek, which can then become dzwoneczek
