In the png, I have 4 pics. The top 2 are of a list that is collapsed therefore only showing the selected language, and the same list but expanded. Font is 12  
The bottom 2 are the same but with a bigger font, 50.  
With the bigger font, the height of the box surrounding the selected word is also bigger.  
As the font size decreases, the boxes also decrease in height.  
But once the font hits about 12, the box surrounding the word stops decreasing in size.  
So, the box surround a word with font 5 is the same as one with font 12.

Is there a way to make the box surrounding the selected word smaller for smaller fonts?

The list component has a minimum size that cannot be changed.
