Horse Translated

Decorated HorseHorses have a huge impact on every culture they have touched, they have been vehicles of war, agricultural laborers, transportation, sport animals and pets.

There is a degree of horsemanship in almost every country on the planet and I thought it might be fun for horse lovers to see what the word horse looks like in other languages.

    The word horse in Estonian is HOBUNE. It’s similar to Finnish which may or may not be apparent to a non-speaker. Finnish and Estonian are closely related languages, called the Fenno-Ugric group which include Hungarian and Saami (Lapp). There you are! The pronunciation in phonetic so you would say 
    HO – bu – neh.
