Our own Peter Calamai is quoted in today's A.Word.A.Day:
lilliputian (lil-i-PYOO-shuhn) adjective
Very small.
noun
A very small person.
[After Lilliput, a fictional island nation in Jonathan Swift's satirical
novel Gulliver's Travels. Everything was diminutive in Lilliput -- its
inhabitants were six inches in height.]
"[Chantal] Lacoste is exploring and mapping the chilly Lilliputian world
of mesofauna, microscopic creatures living in and under the Arctic sea
ice."
