| Comment | Wanted to also add novella and delete the meaning from 短編小説, but seems that novella can mean either one.
Maybe novella should be either added to both 短編小説 and 中編小説 (making it a bit messy though) or deleated all together? |

For 中編小説, GG5 has: a short novel; a novelette; a long short story.
