If she is 4'10" or shorter, she would be classified as a little person. When
used to refer to a person, the word "midget" is considered to be offensive.

Sorry.. wasn't the intention.. google translate put it midget ("an extremely or unusually small person".. so what is the best translation for that??

I know you meant no offense. I was just saying. The accepted term
is "little person".

Is dwarf also an offense or is more accepted?? went to check how it's the translation of one of my childhood history and it's the Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs

If I understand it correctly, "dwarfism" is the genetic condition that
causes a person to be 4'10" or shorter, so I don't think "dwarf" is
unacceptable. But, I'm no expert.
