Me: Just three chapters left until the end of the fic so hang on tight! I do not own MLP in any shape or form. Typical disclaimers apply.
Now that you have integrated yourself into Equestrian society we'll take a look at some of the habits that ponies have.
Grammar and language.
Now when speaking to a pony you should avoid speaking like that of a human.
For example: Somebody should be changed into Somepony. This also applies to Everybody and Nobody just replace the word 'body' with 'pony. Also replace 'Hand' with 'Hoof' when referring to having a pony give you something, basically replace any and all human pronouns with Equestrian pronouns to avoid any and all confusion.
Now since the series itself is a children's show cursing is cut down significantly also it is possible that the magic that runs Equestria will actually prevent you from doing so.
Accents.
As you may've noticed Applejack tends to speak in a southern drawl while Rarity tends to speak in a refined accent reserved for high society. The reasons for this is because of their respective backgrounds and local dialects. Now of course it wouldn't surprise you that there would be different accents throughout Equesteria itself so it would stand to reason that there would be differences in accents.
Zecora accent is reminiscent of Swahili and even speaks the language as further proof of this.
Musical number.
From time to time the ponies can and will break out into song so participation is mandatory. And oddly enough if you are a terrible singer then the magic that resides in Equestria will actually fix that. Maybe not at the level of a professional singer but enough to where you can't butcher the song in question.
The next chapter will cover the history of the monarchs of Equestria Princess Celestia and her younger sister Princess Luna.
Me: Keep the reviews coming! And keep the flag flying out there.
As always Hoody Hoo!
