Who does the term "Little people" refer too?

I understand the word achondroplasia better because it is a Greek word. :)

I didn't know the term, I just understood it because it consists of 2 Greek words.

Do I hit the right keyword?lol It is nice to know, you knew the term. Have a great day!

The aos sí (Irish pronunciation: [i?s '?i?], older form aes sídhe [e?s '?i??]) are a supernatural race in Irish mythology and Scottish mythology comparable to the fairies or elves. They are said to live underground in the fairy mounds, across the western sea, or in an invisible world that coexists with the world of humans. This world is described in the Book of Invasions (recorded in the Book of Leinster) as a parallel universe in which the aos sí walk amongst the living. In the Irish language, aos sí means "people of the mounds" (the mounds are known in Irish as "the sídhe"). In Irish literature the people of the mounds are also called daoine sídhe ['di?n?? '?i??]; in Scottish mythology they are daoine sìth. They are variously said to be the ancestors, the spirits of nature, or goddesses and gods. Some secondary and tertiary sources erroneously refer to aos sí simply as "the sídhe" (lit.: mounds). all the best, urban

Thanks for the detailed answer. I didn't know all this.

What is shee and sidhe?!!!!

You are right, respect is the key. But since some people luck respect, these terms are necessary.

Are you sure about the superiority issue? Isn't in only about dwarfs?

People are still people. Some people though, are very rude/mean so terms like that appear.

Thanks. I have seen leprechauns in movies.

I have no problem too. Maybe some of them had a problem with the terms midget or dwarf. It is the same.

I guess all the terms before little people refer to something historical or mythical as you say.
