Frenos or Frenillos?

Question

Do you say frenillos or frenos for braces?

Answer 1

Both are correct. Frenillos has the diminutive ending -illos; adding it is like adding -ito to the end of a word.

Answer 2

Thanks! I've heard both ways but I didn't know if frenillos was ok to say.

You're welcome. :) - MacFadden, Jun 30, 2010
