Hey guys and Dutch International Diggers opgelet: the Dutch Version of Harry Potter and the Halfblood Prince is out! I've already had a peek and found out that R.A.B. has been translated as R.A.Z. - you guys know what that means, knowing that the translation of Black is Zwarts!
WAH!

(Please excuse my extremely spammy mood. Do not copy!)

I know RC ^_^ Quite cool to pick it up at 00.00 am (instead of 01.00 am with the English book) To start with the new translations, first a few names I really really didn't like (well, not all of them, de uitverkorene is ok... they didn't have much choice I suppose):

Horace Slughorn - Hildebrand Slakhoorn
Rufus Scrimgeour - Rufus Schobbejak
Inferius (inferi) - necroot (necroten)
Spinner's End - Weverseind
Herbert Chorley - Herbert Corvers
The Chosen One - De Uitverkorene

As usual the Dutch translator has come up with even more puns than JKR. I like gruzielement which is a combination of soul and shards, (like pieces of glass).

Penny I have the excel file with the whole list, which might be easier to paste into the thesaurus list. Let me know if you want me to send you this.

*blinks* wow RC :S cool job! Haven't found all those yet, (still not finished the Dutch HBP) but I did see a tiny few mistakes in the spelling, I think you meant 'bestemming' with the 3 'B's? And like I said, it is 'Hildebrand' Slakhoorn Wink Maybe you could check the list once to find other tiny thingies? If you've got time of course Smile I'll try and see what I can do too.

P.S. I don't like gruzielementen Sad I do like the fact that it's based on 'gruzelementen' and 'ziel' but that is not what it was in English... *le sigh* Ah well, it could have been far worse I suppose Sad

Oh! This is such great fun! Terrarosa, thanks for sharing Turkish with us! Wheee! And the Danish translations! Whee again! Apologies for spammies, it's been so long since I logged in that I am a bit overexcited.

Lara, you are (of course!) right - but my excuse is that I WAS feverish when writing that. Blame it on related feverish thinking! Shocked I will have a look at it and correct where necessary.

Penny, if you need help, then please let me know! I am an expert in organising stuff into excel tables (that is, if that's what you need).

Back to work! Ooops
PS Update 11 December: I corrected some misspellings Lara!!!

Woot for Turkish! And yay for more Danish translations! I'm quite well versed in Danish *coughIknow20wordscough*, so I love seeing all those new translations. Great work, Prokyon and Terrarosa! And welcome to the diggers! *yays for new translations*

I haven't been able to get hold of a German copy of HBP so far, and I wouldn't have had time to do much digging anyway. *sighs* I'll probably have more time in the Christmas holidays.

Hey, I just got the German version of HBP and I was wondering if there is any need for me Very Happy . Im in German V so I'm not that great, but I am doing pretty well at reading it...theres just a few (many) verbs I don't know. But at least I never (always) use a dictionary! Wink

All help is welcome, MadEye. Paddy has been working on our German translations, but I don't know if she's gotten her German copy of HBP yet. Maybe the two of you could PM each other and work the German side out?

That reminds me, do we have copies of HBP in all our languages yet? We need to get started on the HBP side of translations still.

No... I don't have a German copy yet... Sad *sighs*

So, any help on the German HBP terms would be greatly appreciated, Mad Eye! You can PM me with what you've got and I can look it through for mistakes or something, if you're not sure about some terms (cases, etc.).

And BTW, welcome to the Immy diggers! *dubs officially* Very Happy

You guys have done a tremendous job on the translations, and I am happy to see that you guys are getting on HBP now. And not to burst your welcome bubble, Paddy, but it's not official until Pen adds you to the group! Wink

Have you seen how many hits the translations have gotten? You guys rock!
