I'm hoping to spend a year or so in Germany as a working student, so I have taken one year of university level German. Unfortunately, helpful horse terms rarely come up in class. Can any of you fluent German speakers help me to compile a list of useful horse terms? I'd like as complete a list as possible, anything from: saddle, bridle, stable, stallion, mare, gelding to walk, trot, canter, extension, collection, leg yield, halp-pass, etc. Anything horse or dressage related. Thank you in advance. You can post here or e-mail me privately at dayniak@yahoo.com.

Here are some useful terms:
saddle-Sattel
bridle-Trense
stirrup-Steigbügel
spurs-Sporen
whip-Gerte
leg yield-Schenkelweichen
half pass-Traversale
rein back-Rückwärtsrichten
walk-Schritt
trot-Trab
canter-Galopp
extension-Verstärkung
collection-Versammlung
circle-Zirkel
riding boots-Reitstiefel
helmet-Helm or Kappe
mare-Stute
stallion-Hengst
gedling-Wallach
foal-Fohlen (no such thing as "colt" and "filly" in German, we say "Stutfohlen" for the females and "Hengstfohlen" for the male foals)
I might have a working student position for you, contact me privately!
