If dogs could write, I wonder how they’d describe smell? There’s not that large a body of specific smells that the layman knows, and most of them are food. Otherwise, they’re largely just pungent, unpleasant odors. Maybe these ponies are more scent-oriented than visually, and so they have a whole body of words—words which we’ll probably never be able to translate—that describe different types of scent. Maybe there’s even a scent spectrum for them. I wonder if it’s like the old proverb about Eskimos having twenty different words for snow?
