elf race bonus question

elves are supposed to get a +1 bonus when using long swords and long bows. My question is it strictly long swords, or do scimitars, katanas if in that field?
Thanks in advance

It applies to any one-handed sword (even including a bastard sword!), and any bow (not a crossbow).
Note that it's only +1 to hit, there's no damage bonus.

In pnp AD&D, that's the way the game is supposed to be played, they only get a bonus of +1 to hit with long swords and long bows.
In BGII, Elves even get a bonus to hit with Two Handed Swords.
