Dinámicita

I was playing around with words and diminutives and came up with that. I would like to know what it translates to/what you think of when you see it. That is, if it's not utter gibberish and translates at all.

I don't want to influence whatever y'all come up with so after I get a couple of responses then I'll add a comment stating what concept I was attempting to convey.

Thank you kindly to anybody that responds. grin

Edit i : What if I make it "una dinámicita"? I think that would make my meaning more clear.

Edit ii : Thank you JulianChivi, I believe the word that I'm looking for is "dinamiquita".

The concept that I was looking to convey was indeed that of a (to quote ajaks): 'Tiny dynamo of the female persuasion'.
It was wonderful to see all of your guesses and I had much fun waiting for somebody to get it right. Thanks for helping me refine my sister's new nickname. cheese

Here's a wild guess. Tiny dynamo of the female persuasion? Do you by any chance have a daughter, say in the range of 3 to 5 years old? ;o)

Ding, ding, ding! You've guessed correctly what I was trying get across. It's an 8 year old sister, by the way :D - DanyelR, Dec 15, 2011
Close enough! :) - ajaks, Dec 15, 2011

I am guessing that you are saying dinámica and then using a diminutive form, however; in this case it would be dinamiquita.

Heh, I knew there had to be some way to arrange that properly. Thank you for clarifying the proper diminutive form. The diminutives are one of my favorite parts of the language. - DanyelR, Dec 15, 2011

Yipee! You're closer. That means that even if it *is* gibberish, it's somewhat comprehensible gibberish :) - DanyelR, Dec 15, 2011

That is not a word in Spanish!

I have an answer for you, but I am curious to see what the SD students have to say - so I'll keep my peace for now.

Not quite what I was trying to convey. Though, it could definitely work if used in a descriptive fashion. - DanyelR, Dec 15, 2011

I'm curious too.. However, I often make up nonsense words in English, so it would hardly surprise me to find out that I was making them up in a foreign language. rolleyes
