有点儿 + Adjective: "A Bit (Too) …"
结构Pattern
Subject有点儿Adjective
这件衣服有点儿大
今天有点儿冷
这个咖啡有点儿热
现在有点儿晚了
解释Explanation

“有点儿”放在形容词前面,表示程度不高,常常说的是说话人不太满意、不太喜欢的事情。注意:“有点儿”在形容词前面,“一点儿”常常在形容词后面,比如“大一点儿”。

有点儿 (yǒudiǎnr) before an adjective means "a little, slightly" — and it usually signals that the speaker isn't happy about it: 有点儿大 "a bit too big", 有点儿冷 "a bit chilly". So you say 有点儿忙 or 有点儿贵, but rarely 有点儿漂亮. Don't confuse it with 一点儿, which comes AFTER an adjective to compare (大一点儿 "a bit bigger") or after a verb (吃一点儿 "eat a little").
