 Ponish does not have an official in-universe orthography, For Equestria is not on Earth, therfore it is unlikely it uses Latin or a version of [[w:Rune|Germanic Runes]]. Any version of conscripts within Equestria are mostly inconsistant<ref>the ''Alphabet of the Unicorns''is an insctance which was introuced in the start of the show, way before [[Old Ponish]] was introduced in season 7, aroun this time it was assumed Ponish was ''a priori '' https://mlpforums.com/topic/45522-alphabet-of-the-unicorns/</ref>. For meta purposes, the Ponish language uses a modified version of the Latin alphabet.
