Same reason all the aliens in rick and morty do, it's a fucking cartoon.

We know other languages exist in canon. Pinkie has sung in Spanish, Applebloom has spoken in French, Cadance's real name is in Italian. It's not a stretch to assume their languages developed the same way ours did.

>>30736201

>>30736272

They're too patrician.

Applejack called it 'speaking in fancy' but fluttershy mentioned a french stitching style in S1 which raises more questions
>>
>>30737823
It is, we the audience just see a garbled abstraction because it makes it easier to port the show to non-English regions

>>30736201
They don't write in English, and they don't speak English; they speak in clicks and whinnies. The English-language version is just a dub.
>>
>>30736201
Because the eternal Anglo rules the multiverse. Eat shit Krauts.
