Foreign Equine Vocabulary

[TopQuark 409]

Apparantly, English has a very developed vocabulary for horses. We've got different words for all the horse parts, horse things, and horse movements. So I was wondering what other languages have in the way of equine-specific vocabulary, and if they are used in the dubs of the show much?

 

When I went to Europe, I got a horse riding lesson in Slovakia. My Czech is good enough to be compatible with Slovak, but when the instructor got out the technical terms, I was lost and had to work off of context. Apparently, they have words for horse-left and horse-right, like starboard and port on a ship.

 

It would be a shame to be born into a language without a ready suppy of horse puns.

I cant really connect My Little Pony and my langiages horse related vocabulary at all, it doesn't feel right, in English it feels more close and cute =)

Well, how often does one even hear technical horse tems outside of the Brony fandom anyways? :grin2:
