In Hindi you may find many examples of full reduplication such as:</p>
<p> sar-sar 'a sound of wind', <br>
Kal-kal 'a rippling sound'<br>
Mar-mar 'susurration'<br>
Car-car 'a crackling sound'</p>
<p>Generally in Hindi reduplication comes for onomatopoeic words. But in 'ghar ghar' it is used as in every home. Reduplication for diminutives is not found in Hindi.</p>

<td valign="top" style="font:inherit;">Hello all,<BR><BR>I'm looking for languages that reduplicate base forms to create diminutives.<BR><BR>An example from Bamyili Creole:<BR> <BR>bragbrag 'froggy' pəpəp 'puppy'<BR>daŋgidaŋgi 'donkey' daldal 'dollie'<BR><BR>Can anyone else help add to this list? It is important that the reduplication process carries no grammatical information. Also, I must point out that I am not looking for partial base reduplication. It must be the entire base. <BR><BR>Thanks,<BR>Scott T. Shell<BR>Graduate Student, Wayne State University<BR></td>
