Прилагательное little имеет в своем значении дополнительный компонент положительной оценки и часто сопровождается еще одним оценочным прилагательным: He is a nice little boy. Он хороший маленький мальчик. Прилагательное small может определяться наречиями quite, very, rather, too. (2.) В отличие от small, прилагательное little, как правило, не сочетается с very, quite, rather, too, а обычно образуется сочетание с другими прилагательными: a nice little house хорошенький маленький домик; historic little shop небольшая историческая лавка. Small в предложении употребляется и атрибутивно, и предикативно: a small boat (атрибутивное употребление) и the boat is small (предикативное употребление). Little употребляется только атрибутивно. (3.) Small и little входят в ряд градуальных прилагательных степени, расположенных по мере увеличения в следующем порядке: tiny крошечный, очень маленький; minute маленький; small/little маленький, небольшой; middle-sized, average-sized среднего размера; big, big-sized большой; huge огромный -
