bajo
adjective: low
-
As we’ve seen with many other words, Spanish conveys meanings that English conveys with separate words. First, something that is low:
una silla muy
baja a very low chair -
It is also used non-literally.

Bajo also refers to your physical stature. In this sense it’s often used in the diminutive, with the suffix -ito added.
