Have you translated the 5 glyphs ( 高貴的老鼠 ) after The Grand Mouse?

Why are you not watching or listening to the Toronto/Edmonton game?

Why are a dozen people running after a single ball? Can't they have their own individual balls?

Have you considered that Chinese might not make the same distinction between mouse and rat as English?

Am I aware of of the ambiguity in many translations from Chinese?

In simplified Chinese, the glyph 鼠 can be translated as either rat or mouse whereas in traditional Chinese, 鼠 is rat and 老鼠 is mouse though I find concatenating old and rat to make mouse a bit odd.

Could it be that mice are considered very old rats who have shrunken due to age?

Is the samurai chameleon correct? Has our noble mouse shrunken under the burdens of cruel age?
