Lol! You're absolutely right.

OMG, I can't even...

I have to say there's certain accuracy in the translation for each word, but the combination is just not something we commonly say. Well, "The Grand Mouse" isn't a very common title either.

I know - google translate and even dictionaries can only get only so far. So how do you think my title should be translated. (NB mouse being a house mouse, not a rat or field mouse. And Grand in the send of upper class, important, elegant, splendid, great. Not in the search of large.)

Well, my first thought is 偉大的老鼠, but it's probably more like The Great Mouse rather than The Grand Mouse.

紳士鼠 is another one I can think of, but it's probably more like Gentleman Mouse? Does that make sense? Lol. Or maybe 高貴鼠? Hmm...

I'm a little stuck here. Sleepy brain is all fuzzy. Help, Lin?

P/S: Both 鼠 and 老鼠 mean mouse, with 老鼠 refers more specifically to house mouse. I used them differently (1-word or 2-word) here based on the structure of the phrase.

I rather like 高貴鼠 (The Noble/Elegant Mouse according to google), but I wonder if the mouse part is sufficiently specific? Google translate suggests 小家鼠 for the house mouse, but perhaps that's more like using mus musculus instead of mouse?

I win, BTW, whatever the translation.
