năniță (without 'o')

I'd say 'o năniță' with a descriptor for the nap: 'o năniță strașnică'

Your use of 'năniță' for 'nap' is kind of logic thinking that a short sleep (a nap) equals a diminutive form of 'sleep', but people use 'năniță' mostly for babies, and with babies everything is in a diminutive form: somnic/năniță/nani, lăptic, măruleț, legumițe, copilaș, pupicuț, repejor, ușurel etc.

So 'năniță' can be any sleep regardless of when it happens and for how long.

Thanks. I corrected it. But in Romania I heard the sentence only from youngsters, with no babies around. Maybe they told it in a funny way ;-)

Well, we were used to hear it as babies and old habits die hard.

E patru dimineață, așa că mă bag la năniță. :P
Poate prind și defilarea...
