Hi, I'm Callie from CRK Training, and in today's video we've got something a little different for you again.
2
We're going to actually be going over some common but weird horse terminology.
3
So I realized as talking to some of my friends who are pretty much brand new to the horse world
4
that those of us
5
that have been around horses for a long time have almost this second language
6
that we use to describe things with our horses or things that we do in riding.
7
And for those of you that might be a little bit newer, kind of coming into this community,
8
some of this lingo that we can use sounds a little bit bizarre.
9
So what I'm going to do today is just go over some of the most common terms
10
that I find that I get questions on as I use them, and I'm going to explain a little bit what they mean.
11
First we're going to start with some words that refer to the horse, to the type of the horse, or the horse's behavior.
12
Our first term is sound or unsound.
13
So a sound horse is one that's moving comfortably with no lameness,
14
and an unsound horse is one that has some lameness and it's noticeable in the way that he's moving.
15
Green broke.
16
So when we talk about a green horse, we're obviously not referring to his color, but we're referring to his level of training.
17
And a horse that is green or that is green broke basically means that he's an inexperienced horse.
18
Most commonly he's also young but he could be older and just be lacking training.
19
Hot.
20
So when we talk about a hot horse we are referring to his temperament.
21
So if a horse is hot it means that he's probably very reactive
22
and very excitable which often makes them a little bit more difficult to ride.
23
Barn Sour.
24
A Barn Sour horse is one that wants to go back to the barn.
25
So it might be that he acts up when he's in the arena, it might be that he acts up on the trail,
26
but he's wanting to go back to the barn and we call that Barn Sour.
27
Buddy Sour.
28
Just like our last term, a horse that is Buddy Sour wants to be with his friends.
29
He wants to be with the other horses and he's got to probably act up when he's away from them.
30
Action.
31
So when we're talking about action, it's usually used in the context of the way that the horse moves.
32
So that horse has a lot of front end action.
33
That horse has a lot of hind end action.
34
What this means is that he's got, it refers to the movement of the horse.
35
So action refers to the movement.
36
And if we say a horse has a lot of action, means that he's got a lot of movement.
37
He's probably got movement that's kind of above normal levels.
38
Bomb -proof.
39
If we refer to a bomb -proof horse, we're talking about one that is pretty much unflappable.
40
So he's not very reactive to things.
41
He stays very calm and exciting situations or environments don't affect the bomb -proof horse.
42
Broke.
43
If we say that a horse is broke or he's a well -broke horse,
44
it basically means that he's got a higher level of training and he's probably pretty easy to ride.
45
So he doesn't react to a lot of things.
46
He knows his basic cues and his signals under saddle.
47
That's what we call a broke horse.
48
Easy or hard keepers.
49
If we say that a horse is an easy keeper, it means that he doesn't take a lot of feed to maintain a healthy weight.
50
If we say that a horse is a hard keeper, it means that he does take a lot of feed, usually a lot of grain,
51
or a lot of extra maintenance to maintain the correct body weight.
52
In this next section, we're going to talk about just a few terms that relate to riding.
53
Changing the rein.
54
If you're in a lesson and your instructor tells you to change your rein, this basically just means change direction and go the other way.
55
Put your leg on.
56
So this is a common phrase that we use when we're riding or that especially that us riding instructors tell our students,
57
but it can be a little bit vague if you don't quite understand the feeling of it.
58
So when we say put your leg on, it basically means squeeze the horse or apply pressure with your legs.
59
On the bit.
60
So this term also sounds a little bit funny, but on the bit refers to a horse that understands contact with the reins,
61
has a nice roundness through his body, is soft in the bridle and in the rider's hands, and is moving nicely and correctly.
62
Ahead of the leg or behind the leg.
63
So these two phrases are talking about a horse that is either basically going too forward or going too slow.
64
So a horse
65
that is ahead of a rider's leg is probably oversensitive to the pressure from the rider's leg
66
and is likely moving too quickly.
67
A horse that is behind the leg is not responding to the cues from the rider's leg
68
and is probably going a little too slow, not enough energy.
69
AIDS.
70
When we refer to the AIDS, to like the rider's AIDS, we're talking about the ways that a rider is cueing the horse.
71
So for example, we have the rain aids, cues that we give with the reins.
72
We have the seat aids, so cues that we give with our seat in the saddle.
73
We have leg aids, and then we might also have aids from a whip or aids with something else like a spur.
74
In our final section, we're going to cover just a few terms that relate to the equipment that we use.
75
Tack.
76
So this is a pretty common one, but if you're brand new to horses, it might sound a little funny.
77
But tack basically just sums up all the things that we use to ride a horse.
78
So if we're tacking up, it just means we're saddling and bridling the horse to get ready for riding.
79
Flakes of hay.
80
So when we refer to a flake of hay, we're not actually referring to a single flake, But when hay is baled,
81
it is compacted into smaller sections within the larger bale.
82
Usually those smaller sections are about a tenth of a bale for a common size small bale.
83
And each of those sections is referred to as a flake.
84
Cavaletti.
85
So, cavalletti is basically a fancy term for poles on the ground
86
that we have the horse step over for different training exercises.
87
I hope you enjoyed this list of common horse riding and equipment terms.
88

- Nimm dich auf und vergleiche mit dem Original; achte dabei auf Wörter wie refer, barn, cue.
Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?
Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
