A strange request relating to endonyms and bad horse puns

[danime91 16]

So I'm currently planning out a fanfic, and I got to thinking about the various pun-tastic names that ponies have for their cities, such as Las Pegasus, Canterlot, Manehattan, etc. Now the fandom has come up with names of their own for more distant lands, like Stalliongrad, Neighpon or Japony, and such.

 

That got me to thinking about endonyms, which is basically what a country's name is in that country's own language. For example Germany isn't Germany in German (lol), it's Deutschland. Japan isn't Japan, it's Nihon, China is Zhongguo, and Korea is Hangook. So I was wondering if any bilinguals here could suggest names for cities and countries in their native language as well as any words in the corresponding language that pertain to horses. The Chinese and Japanese word for horse is "ma", the French word for mane is "crinière". Things like that.

 

I'm a bit of a language buff, so I wanted just that tiny little extra attention to detail of having countries with punny names that work in their own languages, rather than just having be some sort of English pun. So if people could just list a bunch of words in different languages, good ones being gallop, hoof, mane, pony, horse, saddle, horseshoe, neigh, whinny, etc, etc, along with some notable cities. Fruit and vegetable-based puns could work as well, considering we got Appleoosa.

Ouch, man. That pun made me experience physical pain. Like a knife to the language processing center of my brain.

I only know English and Dutch, as I live in Holland, but I can't think of any good horse puns in Dutch...

I guess you could say that people in Holland don't enhorse puns.

(It's funny, because it's like "endorse something", but now with horse in it. Hah. Hah. I'll just leave now.)

 

(I guess you could say I got poned there. Ohke, I'm gone.)
