Talk:Transcripts/Friendship is Magic, part 2/@comment-27578467-20170725053333

I'm posting this on the English side because I haven't finished with the Arabic yet and I'm not patient enough to not complain right now about this.

Rarity's line in Pinkie's song "she is" is tricky to translate because not only is the verb "to be" not usable in this context but also because a lot of substitute verbs would require a direct object. I could think of a few work-arounds for this but instead they translated the script to read "she's frowning", which is obviously not what the original English version was indicating. Yet I've determined to follow the dub as closely as possible, so now I'm stuck either fixing it so that it's closer to the original meaning but different from what people will hear or keeping it incorrect to reflect what the VA's are saying.
