Tyger 213 November 20, 2011 Share November 20, 2011 Well, it's because if no pony won't be rationale or reasonable about a situation between a two settlers, then they're not considered a pony or a buffalo, according to Twilight's calculations.

Evilshy 5,090 November 20, 2011 Share November 20, 2011 maybe she was referring to both the ponies and the buffalo? in which case anypony wouldnt work, and anypony-or-buffalo would sound stupid. yeah im grasping at straws here... 2 Signature now 99% less edgy!

Discordian 6,015 November 20, 2011 Author Share November 20, 2011 Viable, but at the same time she was trying to reason with the ponies the whole time while Rainbow was trying to reason with the Buffalo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vinyl Scratch 262 November 20, 2011 Share November 20, 2011 They've said everybody quite a few times. Since it doesn't refer to a person specifically, I wouldn't call it an error. "YEAH!

Apple Bloom 2,933 November 20, 2011 Share November 20, 2011 (edited) They don't always have to say everypony ._. I'm pretty sure they're supposed to always say everypony or everyone, not everybody, but as Vinyl said, they've goofed up several times throughout the series. I don't worry about it too much. You'll find tons of mistakes if you really look for them. Edited November 20, 2011 by Apple Bloom Signature by @Nico. Come join us for movies and more!

Marshmallow 1,137 November 21, 2011 Share November 21, 2011 Hmm.. That's not the only time they messed up, it actually happens quite often. Additionally, in that specific example, it can be argued that she was talking about both the ponies and the buffalos. Buffalos aren't ponies, so "everybody" was a more appropriate term (since, you know, both are/have "bodies" ) "There was me, that is Pinkie, and my three droogs, that is Rarity, Rainbow, and Fluttershy, and we sat in the Ponyville Milkbar trying to make up our rassoodocks what to do with the evening."

cuteycindyhoney 13,315 November 23, 2011 Share November 23, 2011 Buffalo aren't ponies. Maybe she was thinking that when she said it. I'll have to go back and re-watch to see the context though. Thank you Sparklefan1234!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linguz 140 November 23, 2011 Share November 23, 2011 Everypony can only be used when referring to specifically ponies with one or two outside parties (Spike and other nonponies). Everybody is used when talking about every creature in Equestria as a whole. All the times when they say 'everybody' instead of 'everypony,' see if it might mean everyone that is in Equestria instead of just everyone around them. I'll have to watch the episodes myself to figure out as this is just speculation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Rarity Pony 4,892 November 23, 2011 Share November 23, 2011 I forget where but they did at one time say "anybody" or "anyone" when there were only ponies there, so the appropriate term would have been "anypony".

Nas 2,873 June 12, 2012 Share June 12, 2012 *bumping for the purpose of continuing the discussion on the previous thread that just got locked* The way I see it, “-body” suffix words do not exist in that world. They are simply script errors, in my opinion. In our world, we say “-body” because our earth his dominated by a human population. The etymology from the “-body” suffix words refer to US, humans, souls in anthropomorphic human bodies. Thus, the term is derived from the majority race. In the world that Equestria is in, ponies utilize an alternate derivative of our version of the suffix, “-pony”. In this case, the etymology is supposedly from the fact that the planet's dominant race is ponies– foals, colts, fillies, stallions, mares, earthies, pegasi, and unicorns. In addition, they may also use the suffix for referring to less-dominant creatures, such as common house pets. There are no humans in Equestria (soon, Lyra, soon...), thus I do not think that the term “-body” is relevant nor do I think it makes sense. Like I said, I assume it is just a simple scripting error. 1 My journey in the fandom started on April 5, 2012. I joined here on April 24, 2012. Where that journey is headed now, who knows...
