Itsy Bitsy是什么意思？

Itsy-bitsy comes from the word "ici-pici", which is used in Hungary to tiny, small things. It was taken into the US (to Holywood) by a Hungarian film director in the early 20th century. Then he used it in everyday life and stuck to others. This is the one and only Hungarian word that was adopted to English.

Itsy-bitsy來源于單詞“ici pici”，在匈牙利語中用來形容微小的事物。20世紀初，一位匈牙利電影導演把它帶到了美國（好萊塢）。然后他在日常生活中使用并且也常和他人用這個詞。據說這是唯一一個被英語所采用的匈牙利語單詞。
