DICTIONNARY OF EQUESTRIAN TERMS FRENCH / ENGLISH / SPANISH
This dictionnary is issued from our experience during conversations with our guides all over the world. Some terms should be unusuals or regionals. It was made to help during your discussions with local population or with our guides.
The pronunciation can be specific in certain countries : for example, in Argentina, the "ll" pronounces "j" while the rest of Latin America (Chile, Costa Rica, Mexico) pronounces it in the Spanish.
If you know some other words to be added, or if you have modifications to be proposed, do not especially hesitate to announce it to us!
