==Praticas Culturais, Espirituais e Sociais==
The [[horse]] is in the heart of the lives of Dothraki, who are sometimes dubbed the "[[horselord]]s" It is both a deity, a mount, a power source for its meat and milk of mares, and an inspiration for all craft. The nomadic lifestyle, as well as many cultural taboos, are directly associated with the horse. They fear the sea, calling it the [[poison water]], because they distrust any liquid that a horse will not drink.{{Ref|aSoS|8}} They are also very wary of sea travel because they cannot imagine crossing large distances without riding their horses.
Riding a horse is, for the Dothraki, a basic marker of social status. A ''khal'' who cannot ride is no ''khal''.{{Ref|aGoT|68}} Custom decrees that the ''khaleesi'' must ride a mount worthy of her place by the side of the ''khal''.{{Ref|aGoT|11}} A pregnant woman is expected to ride on horseback almost up to the moment of birth.{{Ref|aGoT|54}}
A cart is of less prestige and is used to transport eunuchs (who serve the ''dosh khaleen''{{Ref|aGoT|46}} as well as slaves who serve as healers with knife, needle and fire {{Ref|aGoT|61}}), cripples (those that are not left for the feral dogs{{Ref|aGoT|31}}), women in childbirth, the very young and the very old.{{Ref|aGoT|36}} It is by this concession that [[Viserys Targaryen]] becomes known as Khal Rhaggat, the Cart King.
A man who does not ride is no man at all, the lowest of the low, without honour or pride, most often a slave. Viserys's status as a walker for one day leaves him known as ''Khal Rhae Mhar'' (the sorefoot king).
When a Dothraki dies, his horse is sacrificed on the funeral pyre of his master. The Dothraki consume a diet almost exclusively of horse meat, to which they attribute many properties and consequently prefer to beef and pork.{{ref|agot|31}} They also have black sausages (similar to [[w:Kishka (food)|''kaszanka'']]), blood pies and sweetgrass stews.{{Ref|aGoT|11}} They drink a mildly alcoholic beverage derived from fermented mare's milk (similar to the Central Asian drink [[w:Kumis|''kumýs'']]).{{ref|agot|46}}
A pregnant Dothraki woman will participate in the [[Stallion heart|stallion heart]] ceremony, in which she will attempt to consume the heart of a stallion under the supervision of the ''[[dosh khaleen]]''. Due to the prohibition on bearing steel in [[Vaes Dothrak]], the mother must tear apart the stallion's heart with her bare teeth and fingernails. If she eats the entire heart, she will bear a son who is strong and swift and fearless; if she chokes on the blood or retches up the flesh, the omens are less favourable — the child might be stillborn, weak, deformed or female.
Dothraki have a contempt of cities, believing that anything of importance in a man's life must take place beneath the open sky.{{Ref|aGoT|11}} The Dothraki believe that the stars are horses made of fire and are a giant herd that gallops across the sky by night.{{Ref|aGoT|46}} However it is said by others that the Dothraki believe the stars are the spirits of valiant dead.{{Ref|aCoK|66}}
===Casamento e Rituais de Cama===
{{Veja também|Casamento}}
Weddings begin at dawn and end at dusk, an endless day of drinking and feasting and fighting. Women with veils of crimson and yellow and orange dance to drums at wedding feasts, and warriors may take them freely before the watching ''khalasar''. If two men take the same woman, they fight to the death. A Dothraki wedding without at least three deaths is seen as a dull affair. The bride receives three traditional gifts: whip, bow, and ''[[arakh]]''. She refuses them with traditional words, and the husband takes them. After bride gifts are given, and the sun has gone down, the marriage is consummated.
The Dothraki mate like animals in heat. There is no privacy in the ''khalasar'', and their sense of sin and shame is different from that of the [[Free Cities]] and the [[Seven Kingdoms]].{{Ref|aGoT|11}}
===Costume===
The Dothraki are a very superstitious group. Touching the corpse of a man you have not killed yourself is considered bad luck, as is the number thirteen.{{Ref|aDwD|17}} Witches, or ''[[maegi]]'', are reviled as evil and unnatural.
Riding in carts in a ''khalasar'' is reserved for eunuchs, cripples, women with child, the very young and the very old. To ride in a cart and not be a member of any of those groups is to be worthy of derision.{{Ref|aGoT|36}} ''Khalasars'' keep two sorts of healers. Barren women practice with herbs and potions and spells, and eunuch slaves use knife, needle, and fire. Dothraki leave deformed newborns behind them for feral dogs to eat.
The Dothraki may wear rich fabrics and perfumes in the [[Free Cities]], however among their own people men and women garb themselves in painted leather vests over bare chests, horsehair leggings cinched with belts of bronze medallions{{Ref|aGoT|11}} and open-toed riding sandals that lace up to the knees. They do not wear armor, considering it craven, so they often fight with no shirt on or with only vests. Dothraki women might wear robes of painted sandsilk.
The Dothraki’s proof of valor is their braided topknots. Whenever they lose a battle they must cut their braids as a sign of defeat. They mark victories by putting [[Bells (Dothraki)|tiny bells]] in their braids, often taking bells from the Dothraki they have slain. Thus, a warrior's topknot is a symbol of his prowess.{{Ref|aGoT|3}}
The Dothraki do not build. A thousand years before, to build a house they would dig a hole in the earth and raise a grass roof over it.{{ref|AGOT|36}}
Traders are free to cross the Dothraki sea unmolested to Vaes Dothrak as long as they keep the peace, do not profane either the [[Mother of Mountains]] or the [[Womb of the World]] and give the traditional gifts of salt, silver and seed to the ''dosh khaleen''.
===Exército===
The Dothraki are nomadic warriors; they ride better than any Westerosi knight. Light cavalry forms the backbone of their power, with warriors wielding curved cavalry swords called ''[[arakh]]''s, curved bows, and whips. They eschew armor, considering it cowardly, and typically wear painted vests and horsehair breeches.
While the ''khalasar'' is on the move, their scouts range far ahead, looking for prey or enemies. Outriders guard the flanks.{{Ref|aGoT|23}} After battles, the ''[[jaqqa rhan]]'' or mercy men move among corpses and use heavy axes to take the heads of the dead and dying alike, while small girls with baskets go about pulling arrows from bodies to be re-used later.

Os dothraki usam sua própria [[Língua Dothraki|linguagem homônima]].{{Ref|aGoT|11}} Todos os senhores de cavalo que, com o tempo, são afetados pela síndrome da perna arqueada, são forçados e desmontar e andar pela terra como mortais comuns.
