Wikipedia
shortsword
The English language terminology used in the classification of swords is imprecise and has varied widely over time. There is no historical dictionary for the universal names, classification or terminology of swords; a sword was simply a double edged knife. Historical terms without a universal consensus of definition (i.e. "arming sword", "broadsword", "long sword", etc.) were used to label weapons of similar appearance but of different historical periods, regional cultures and fabrication technology. These terms were often described in relation to other unrelated weapons, without regard to their intended use and fighting style. In modern history, many of these terms have been given specific, often arbitrary meanings that are unrelated to any of their historical meanings.

shortsword
A shortsword is a type of sword characterized by its relatively short blade, typically measuring between 12-24 inches in length. Shortswords were commonly used as a sidearm by infantry soldiers and warriors in close combat situations. They are generally lighter and more maneuverable than longer swords, making them suitable for quick strikes and parrying.
