ミゼット

noun

midget; little person

Loanword from English; can refer to a person of extremely short stature or, by extension, to something very small. Note that in modern English 'midget' is often considered offensive; Japanese usage may not carry the same weight but learners should be aware.

• サーカスでミゼットの芸げい人にんを見みた。

  I saw a midget performer at the circus.

• この車くるまはミゼットカーと呼よばれている。

  This car is called a midget car.
