Okay, there's three sizes to Japanese swords. The longest is the katana, what's the midsize and smallest one? I swear to god I knew this before, I just can't for the life of me find where I saw it so I can remember!

I want a midsize one, by the way. I'm too short to use a full katana, even though they're pretty. :D

In Japanese, does the noun come first, or does the adjective? Like saying "dark cloud", would it be formed "cloud dark" in Japanese?
