"Musen"

Translation: The mouse

[Krinadoodle]

Love how it sounds like moose. Mice can always hope, right?

[Iawesome2--GD]

Yup.

[Iawesome2--GD]

U = correct

[Dennizzz119]

My first instinct is to write Mice.

Sigh still getting used to it.

[Arnauti]

But be glad you know the form mice since it'll be very useful to you. Just like English does a strange thing with a mouse, several mice, Swedish does something very similar: en mus, flera möss.

[schyrsivochter]

German does that, too: eine Maus, viele Mäuse — written similarly, but pronounced [maʊs] and [mɔɪzə]. eu and äu are always pronounced [ɔɪ]. Strange, but feels completely natural to me as a native German.

[Ungewitig_Wiht]

I'd say German is slightly better in that it makes the word look the same, but yeah, "mouse" to "moise-uh" in pronunciation

[Heidijan]

It's not written similarly, it's a and ä, no?

[Synthpopalooza]

Mine too. So used to the -en plurals in German, even though "Maus" does not do this in German

[MohammadSa970078]

In farsi language ( Iran ) we have this form as moush(mu:sh).

[AliBalador]

I think it is amost the same in every langusge and not only persian.

[4oYBIxtO]

At least in many indo-European languages

[Charli918]

Can thid also be used as computer mouse or just the animal?

[4oYBIxtO]

Yes, it could also be the computer mouse

[JensBjrnha1]

Yes, but technically that kind of mouse is "musar" in plural.

[devalanteriel]

No, it's most commonly möss for the computer kind as well, but some people do use musar. The vulgar slang always uses the other conjugation, though.

[Sun-Wukong]

Sounds like "moosen."

[JackVandeleuv]

Ox, Oxen; Box, Boxen; Moose, Moosen.

[WilliamGor2]

Many much moosen in the woodsen

[yusufgkhn]

Turkish has no this confusing things.. We just add the and of word " -ler" like "-s" in english even though what we do tomouse is mouses there is no need to transforme the word in here

[fly2heights]

Its really intetesting that mouse is pronounced the same in all indo european languages, it shows that once upon a time they have lived in a place where had mice in it. xD

[GeovaniSardagna]

Rat!

[Turmee]

I still hear "ny:rsan" :D

[Skj97]

I wrote 'The mouse' yet still got it wrong? i'm confused lol

[devalanteriel]

There's been an increase lately in similar bugs, where users enter exactly correct translations only to be told they're wrong.
