If something becomes gradually less or smaller, the term dwindle can be used in that context. Usually it is used in conjugation with the word 'away' and you can hear the term quite often even in everyday conversation.

Unless a word is being used in context it is difficult for anybody to understand the concept, keeping this very thought in mind given here are some of the examples that can make you understand the term better: The support for this particular party has dwindle away. This sentence conveys the idea that the support for that party is declining and soon it will come to nothing.

There are some other examples also that can make it clear for you to understand: dwindling audiences and dwindling numbers. Both these terms convey the idea of declination in size.
