AI Overview
Yes, "frightful dragon" is an accurate literal translation of the Japanese word for dinosaur.
Japanese Term: Dinosaur is written as 恐竜 (kyōryū).
Literal Meaning: It is a compound word:
恐 (kyō): Means "fearful," "scary," or "terrible".
竜 (ryū): Means "dragon".
Context: While it literally translates to "fearful dragon" or "frightful dragon," it is the standard word for dinosaur in modern Japanese.
Origin: The term was coined in 1895 as a translation of the Greek-based "dinosaur" (terrible lizard), using the "dragon" character instead of "lizard" (which is typically tokage or 蜥蜴).

Note: This literal translation was famously misunderstood by a translator in the video game Final Fantasy VI, where the word for dinosaur was mistakenly translated literally as "frightful dragon" instead of simply "dinosaur".

I had a neighbor across the street who also subscribed to Nintendo power and he’d always get his magazine 3-5 days before me. It really drove me nuts.
Turns out he was lying and just fucking with me because he hated me.
