Hi,
In the medieval times in Europe there were often people at the courts of kings who worked as servants and also entertained and amused guests during different receptions. These people usually had low stature and were sometimes ugly (physically awkwrd). As far as I know they were called "dwarfs". I'd like to ask you if we can also call them "midgets" without any offence?
Thanks
