Examples

.

A small path leads to the river.

.

We walked along the path through the forest.

.

A car cannot drive on that path.

This one is genuinely assembled, and worth taking apart. is a road or a way; -- is the diminutive that gives -> and -> ; is the small version, a footpath or lane rather than a shrunken motorway. The suffix carries no affection here, only size, which is where it differs from English endings like -let. Its opposite number is --, so a o would be a great broad highway.
