Celebrating your 18th birthday is a momentous occasion for anyone， but for tiny Jyoti Amge the milestone is even bigger news.

18岁生日对于每个人来说都是人生的一个重要时刻，但是对于娇小的Jyoti Amge来说，这里程碑式的日子更是一件大事。

The 62.8com-tall teenager is already a mini celebrity in her hometown of Nagpur， India， but is now set for a huge record when she is officially declared the world’s smallest woman.

身高仅62.8厘米的Jyoti在家乡印度那格浦尔已经是一个小小名人，而今她又准备摘得一项重要记录，她被官方宣布为世界最娇小的健在女性。

And despite her miniature stature， Jyoti hopes to celebrate being crowned the world’s shortest woman by launching a Bollywood movie career.

虽然体格迷你，Jyoti却憧憬着开始自己的宝莱坞电影事业，以此庆祝加冕世界最矮女性的头衔。

A teary-eyed Jyoti， dressed in one of her finest saris， called the honor an ’extra birthday present’ and said she felt grateful for being small， as it had brought her recognition.

生日会上，Jyoti穿着她最好的莎丽服，眼含泪水，将此头衔称为“额外的生日礼物”。Joyti感激上天给予她娇小的身材，这让她能够为世人瞩目。

She also blew out candles on a birthday cake which was comfortably bigger than her. Even the Guinness World Records book at the ceremony came up to Jyoti’s waist.

Jyoti吹灭了生日蛋糕上的蜡烛，而蛋糕比她本人还要大。就连生日会上那本世界基尼斯记录册都到她的腰了。

Jyoti weighs just 12lbs（5.5kg） — only 9lbs more than she did at birth - and has a form of dwarfism call achondroplasia， which stopped her growing after her first birthday.

Jyoti体重仅有12磅（5.5千克），只比出生时重了9磅。她患有软骨发育不全症（属于侏儒症的一种），使得她从一周岁生日后就停止了生长。
