Version 2 [link]

I'm finally finished to collect the pony terms from all aired episodes. Now I can publish the first version of the brony dictionary.

It is still a work in progress and with the growing brony community and more episodes the dictionary will hopefully growing even more.
The dictionary should help new bronies who don’t know what some of the pony related terms mean and so it can prevent misunderstandings.

If you have more entries for the dictionary you can post them here and I will add them to the second version.
For new entries please give the number of the chapter (for chapter 1 also the episode number), the word/phrase and the translation or description

For example

Chapter 2:
bro-hoof = bro-fist

If you have also some other ideas (like new chapters) or comments feel free to post them.
Together we can make a great brony dictionary
