Li'l

ITSY

Think of a tiny adjective often paired with "bitsy" in a classic nursery rhyme about a spider.

"Li'l" is a casual, shortened way to say 'little,' often used in informal speech or writing. The answer "ITSY" fits because it’s a playful, old-fashioned term meaning 'very small,' like in the phrase 'itsy-bitsy.' Both words capture the idea of something tiny, with 'itsy' being a more whimsical version of the clue’s hint."
