Re: Russian diminutives for Luna
in reply to a message by Rene
It's hard to shorten Luna. But the diminutive endings I mentioned are like -ette in French or -ita in Spanish. They're not like Tanja is short for Tatjana. Even if the name isn't shorter, there's some apparent affection because the form is used.
