If anyone can help with the correct answer, I'd appreciate it .

======================================================================
I am still a new learner
jIHaDbe'
jIHaDnIS
But a friend needs these words translated and I'm not sure what to tell
her, please help me
"my little heart"
tIqwIj = my heart
The noun suffix *diminutive* is Hom
Hom is a type 1 suffix, wIj is a type 4
But I also saw that there is a verb for ' be small' [mach]
She wants to use the words as an 'endearment'[for a child] in a story
that she is writing.
oy referred on page 174 TKD might also be used as a noun suffix.
[endearment]
So I'm really confused as to what to tell her.
tIqHomwIj or tIqoywIj [does this even make sense?] or to use mach
somehow
