Jeg har haft virkelig mange problemer med at oversætte mine dressurklasser på engelsk korrekt, for det hedder ikke LA, MB og så videre i resten af verden. Derfor har jeg researchet som en gal og fundet frem til, hvilke klasser, der svarer til hvad i USA og England. Både for jeres skyld – og min egen.
It’s so confusing when I write about the dressage levels because their names vary from country to country. And the tests in each level do to. I have done a little (okay – big) research and discovered how the levels compare… For your sake – and mine!

I have found an example of a class, Advanced medium, 3th level test 1 and MB0, from the three countries so you can see how they relate.
