see I thought that too but this is what ChatGPT said:
"It depends on what you’re trying to name. In Latin binomials (the system used for scientific naming of species), the genus comes first and is capitalized, while the species epithet comes second and is lowercase. So if you’re talking about a scientific name in the Linnaean system, it would be Equus fortis (“strong horse”), with Equus being the genus that includes horses, zebras, and donkeys. “Fortis equus” would be regular Latin word order, meaning simply “a strong horse.” That’s a descriptive phrase, not a formal taxonomic designation. Latin is flexible about word order, but in natural usage “fortis equus” sounds like prose or poetry, while Equus fortis looks like a species name."
That said these days it lies like an Indian so I'll probs ask my dad / Theon / Tom later.
I think the translation would be equus fortis, different syntax to english
