If you have ever heard how some people pronounce idiot it isn't far off from едят. Most of us pronounce the o that sounds more like an i. Id-dee-it.
Ja, richtig. Das ist fuer "они". Ich werde dir helfen: Я ем, он ест, ты ешь, мы едим, вы едите, они едят. Hier, diese Seite wird mit den anderen Verben helfen: http://learnrussian.rt.com/grammar-tables/personal-endings-of-russian-verbs/
If I'm understanding your question, I think you are asking how to tell which is the subject and which is the direct object. The subject or subject pronoun will be in Nominative case, and the direct object will be in accusative case, regardless of some changes to the word order. Since 'что' looks the same in both cases, that doesn't help, so look at other words to work it out. 'Лошадь' is Nominative, so that means it has to be the subject of the sentence. Hope that helps.
