Aistyonok

Aistyonok is a Russian word meaning "baby stork" or "young stork." It is the diminutive form of the word "aist," which means "stork." The suffix "-yonok" (ёнок) is commonly used in Russian to form the names of young animals. Therefore, "aistyonok" specifically refers to a juvenile stork, emphasizing its youth and small size. The word is used in contexts where the young age of the stork is relevant, such as in descriptions of nature, children's literature, or metaphorical expressions. It carries a connotation of innocence, fragility, and new beginnings, as baby animals often do.
