a small town 含义是面积不大或人口不多的小镇

值得注意的是，little和small在修饰某些名词时，会产生不同的意思。例如：

little money 是没有多少钱 small money 是面额小的钱币

下面两个句子的涵义并不相同，请注意： He has no small chance of success． 他大有成功的可能。

He has not the smallest chance of success． 他并没有成功的可能。

一百多年前，有些英美作家用littler，littlest作为little的比较级和最高级，如 the littlest child；the littler house。这种英语在现代英语中已看不到了。
