'(("Very small" . "32x32")
("Normal" . "128x128")
("Large" . "256x256"))
Small, Medium, Large.
For example, the Gimp uses the following vocabulary for the size words
describing the preview sizes:
Tiny
Very small
Small
Medium
Large
Very large
Huge
Enormous
Gigantic
Quick! - which is bigger, Enormous or Huge? Such names are opaque on their
own - users will need to look up what they mean anyway.
Why not just use the size as the name, without adding the vague translation?
"256x256" is a perfectly good name, and it gives you a clear idea of the
size.
In that case, a list of size-names would suffice: ("32x32" "128x128"
"256x256").
An added benefit would be that any number of sizes could be used, without
resorting to coming up with names like "Super Duper Enormogigantissimo" and
"Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weeny" (which of course could only be used on yellow
polka-dot images).
