"Dainty" is one of those words that sort of sounds like what it means. Not that the word is onomatopoetic. Rather, the pronunciation of the word, I've always thought, simply dovetails nicely with its meaning.

Apparently, being dainty as truly peerless as the lionized Goddess who has potential to transcend all conceivable charm in this world must be way beyond onerous to be, I'd reckon, if my empirical savvy is right. However, it appears that the superhuman aesthetic self-transcendence can be seen around me wherever I go.
