Gaitilla (f)

(with) definite article: la
(the) (very) small bagpipe
Cornamusa

Only used to denote the size of a bagpipe in comparison with other types; Term applicable to Biniou kozh and Musette de cour; NB (ws): The Bulgarian Kaba gajda and Serbian Gajde banatske would, in contrast, deserve the non-existing augmentative "gaitón".
