How do you say a little bit in Russian?

There are a few ways to say "a little bit" in Russian, depending on the context and the nuance you want to express:

For a small quantity:

* немного (nemnoho): This is the most common and versatile way to say "a little bit."

* чуть-чуть (chut'-chut'): This is more informal and emphasizes a very small amount.

For a slight degree:

* немножко (nemnozhko): This is similar to "немного" but implies a slightly larger amount.

* слегка (slegka): This is used for a small degree of something, like "slightly."

For a short duration:

* немного времени (nemnoho vremeni): Literally "a little bit of time."

* чуть-чуть времени (chut'-chut' vremeni): Literally "a little bit of time," more informal.

Examples:

* Я хочу немного сахара в кофе. (I want a little bit of sugar in my coffee.)

* Он немножко устал. (He's a little bit tired.)

* Пожалуйста, подожди чуть-чуть. (Please wait a little bit.)

The best choice will depend on the specific situation.
