twilight sparkle says "people"

[ScarletDagger 88]

In the season 2 finale when twilight goes to her brothers house and fake cadence shows up, twilight says "she sure has a way of sneaking up on people"

[TomokoKuroki 1,707]

Oh shit, she broke the code? Time to plan an execution...

[Aureity 3,055]

[Nas 2,863]

Um, there's something wrong with that?

 

In the world of Equestria, or at least whatever world Equestria is in/on, the only terms that canonically apply rightly to ponies is those with the suffix -pony. Like everypony, somepony, anypony, etc. "People" and "person" is used a lot in other cartoons that take place in other universes. Idk.

[cuteycindyhoney 13,282]

People does not mean human. I see no problem.

Oh Trollestia, I'll love to attend <3 Haven't had a moon banishment in a while though...*cough* I think I saw Applejack in league with Twilight *cough*

 

I did notice this at the time but didn't really care. I had thought at the time that they had said it more than once throughout the series anyway xD

[MVC NVMXD JVRXD 2,406]

Is this really a problem? I didn't even notice this.

[Speedy Transition 788]

I didnt even know... and, maybe they did it for people to freak out?

Bottom line, Twlight is awesome =3

People doesn't mean human beings... or does it?

[Radiance64 7,051]

Ponies are the 'people' of Equestria, so I don't really think there's a problem here... :/

[StingeMuffin 244]

I wouldn't read too much into it. It's probably used to refer to a wider range of characters than just ponies.

 

If I'm wrong, and it is implying that humans are canon, then... then...

Reminds me of hogwarts and the other magical places in the harry potter series, only magic users could go to these places, and they were hidden from muggles.

ride a pony through a magical underwater portal

I don't see a problem with it. I noticed the ponies say people before so.

[Extraho Vinco 55]

Theres no problem with it, If i remember correctly some ponies have said people before.

 

It's not the end of the world xD

 

Now the real question is, when are we going to hear Celestia say bananas?

 

Edit: hmmm... my post is strikingly similar to the post above... lol.

I'd prefer to hear her say "Nuts!"

 

And I mean the meaning the British used for it in the 1940's.

mmmk... what?

[Parties like Pinkie 385]

mmmk... what?

 

Today nuts is used as a "clean" expression to display aggravation, if you wish not to curse.

 

In the 1940's, in Britain, it was used as an expression similar to that of "Go to Hell."

 

I would like to hear Celestia say that. ((NOT CANON))

[The Tainted One 69]

Didn't Celestia say "people" when she was locking horns with Chrysalis?

Everypony in the show has said people at one point or another, possibly.

 

Just because they say people doesn't mean they are talking about humans.

 

People has more meanings than that, such as "Subjects of a King or Queen in rule."

[Z.J.A. 136]

I don't see the issue with the ponies saying people on occasion. It's not like it's humans they're referring too. And it's a more inclusive term since there are plenty of non-pony creatures.
