Etymology 1

From agua +‎ -ita.

Noun

agüita f (plural agüitas)

  1. diminutive of agua; a small amount of water
Usage notes
  • agua is a feminine noun, but the masculine definite article is used because it starts with a stressed a: el agua. Its diminutive, agüita, stresses the second syllable, so the feminine definite article is used as with any other ordinary feminine noun: la agüita.
