  • Yes, a midget has limbs in proportion and a dwarf has shortened limbs.
  • it depends on what they look like.
  • yes. A midget (actually an offensive term) is a very short person with normal proportions. A dwarf is usually somebody with an average-sized body but unusually short limbs, or somebody with growth hormone deficiency
  • In my understanding a midget is a person whose torso is fully developed while the legs are somewhat short. But dwarfs are those who's skeleton has not developed to the full and are indeed very short people. It should however be noted that the deficit in their heights do not reflect in any way in their mental capabilities.
  • I saw a movie called "Attack of the giant Midget". It made him regular height.
  • http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dwarfism#Terminology
  • I heard once on the discovery channel that a midget usually has disproportioned body parts (i.e. larger head compared to the rest of their body). A dwarf is perfectly proportioned, just smaller.
  • A midget is a really short person, a dwarf is this small burly dude with a huge beard and a Viking helmet living in a cave, drinking 68% beer that looks like tar and forging swords and hammers. >_>
  • Midget is the politically incorrect term for "little people". Dwarfs are mythical creatures that drink heavily and wield battle axes.
  • A dwarf is a person with a genetic disorder which causes him/her to be shorter than usual. It is often accompanied by other abnormalities. A midget is person who happens to be smaller than normal, but is otherwise normally proportioned. I actually wrote an article about this : ).
