#1: Confusing French, German, Dutch, Swedish, Afrikaans?..? Author: Pen , Location: La la land .... Lovely view ... Wanna see? Post Posted: Sat Oct 30, 2004 03:12 AM
    ----
So, now that I have your attention, I'm here to announce a new digging thread for all international Harry Potter readers. The results are being collected and placed in the HP Translations Thesaurus here at Immeritus. Thanks to my ickle daughter, Catzeyes, for proposing this topic to the powers that be. Woot!

We're compiling a list of HP character names, places, things, etc *as they appear in the translations* as a reference to international readers. This is an ongoing project and all languages are welcome.

Below are lists of characters, terms, plants, spells, things, etc. in the Harry's world. Now, before I get complaints about the way I've sorted major and minor characters, I've categorized them according to importance to Harry (you may question some, but please bear with me; there are a lot of characters here).

Please post in this thread with corresponding terms *as they appear in your translations*. I'll edit the lists here as entries come in.

Attention: Here is the compiled thesaurus so far.

You do quick work! Now, as I recall the quote, Mag will "love you forever". :luv



Wish I could help, but I don't have any other books but the American ones.



I'd like to ask, though, as people respond, would you be so kind as to post a photo of the cover of your International books? I have seen some really neat covers on google searches, but none really high enough resolution to appreciate them. Thanks!

Hey Penny, great work! I know I couldn't have done better even if it was my project! :DD



Thanks for taking it in hand, you are a great mother!



Anyway, I'll be back with the French names as soon as I can, and I'll also try and find all the covers!



Also, in looking at Muggle.net I taugh maybe you could also put the Marauders' names (Moony, Padfoot, ...) you know what I mean, and maybe also Snuffles. What do you think? Do't want you to have too much work, it's just to complete the list!

Oooh, this is fun! I'm printing the list out now to take home and scrounge for all the Afrikaans versions. Yay for questy! Thanks Catz and Pen Smile



EDIT: 8 more sleeps til I will be in the land of Harry Potter en die Towenaar se Steen *mental note to purchase Afrikaans dictionary, so I can figure all this stuff out* but in the meantime here's a link to an atricle about the Afrikaans Harry Potter translations, with a couple of the names that have been changed.

...the feeling returned to him. The hand, the impression of somebody watching over him...

He wasnt alone anymore. He was never alone. Sirius was there, watching. He knew that now. He smiled.

#8: Latin Names! For a laugh. Author: Nor , Location: Norway, Normandy, Norwich and occasionally the North Pole Post Posted: Sat Oct 30, 2004 12:08 PM
    ----
I know I've told some of you, Harry Potter is available in Latin, and I have it! So far only PS has been translated, but I'll post more if they come out. Meanwhile I shall get all the ones I can from PS. (I only showed the ones that are different... though of course the names change with what case they're in... I cracked up the first time I saw 'Dursleyorum' [lit: of the Dursleys]



Harry Potter = Harrius Potter

Ronald Weasley = Ronaldus Vislius [lit: Weasel-like, we think]

Ginny = Ginny Vislia (just made to agree gender-wise, but I thought I'd include it)

Fred = Fredericus

George = Georgius

Neville = Neville Longifundus [yup, long bottom]

[Arthur is not in PS, and Molly's first name is never used; Crabbe and Goyle's first names also never used]

Sirius Black = Sirius Niger

Lupin not mentioned, James and Lily are the same, no Pettigrew. Scabbers the same though. Voldemort same, no mention of Riddle, also no Moody or Aberforth

All the rest the same, or not mentioned in PS.



Minor ones:

Uncle Vernon Dursley = Avunculus Vernon Dursley

Aunt Petunia = Matertera Petunia

Oliver Wood = Oliver Silvius

Bill Weasley = Gulielmus Vislius

Charlie Weasley = Carolus Vislius

Percy Weasley = Persius Vislius

Prof. Sprout = Professor Caulicula [not 100% sure of this; can't find it in the nominative anywhere]

Prof Flitwick = Professor Flitvicus

Madam Hooch = Magistra Hooch

Madam Pomfrey = Magistra Pomfrey ['Poppy' not used in PS]

Dean Thomus = Decanus Thomas [apparently this is the Latin for the academic position of Dean]



There are more but I've run out of time, will edit in later. Sorry!

Known aliases: Norus, Norlet, Norletta, Norusinerus, Norwich, Norway, Normandy, Manuel, Squeff, and Plotting, one of the four Horsewomen of the Dan Brown Apolcalypse.



'Leave them laughing when you go, and if you care don't let them know, don't give yourself away.' - Joni Mitchell, Both Sides Now



"'I refuse to prove I exist, says God, 'for proof denies faith and without faith I am nothing.'

'Aha,' says man, 'the Babel Fish proves you exist, and therefore, by your own logic, you don't.'

'Oh dear,' says God. 'I hadn't thought of that' and prompty vanishes in a puff of Logic."

Harry Potter y la piedra filosofal



Harry Potter and the chamber of secrets:

Harry Potter y la camara de los secretos



Harry Potter and the prisioner of Azkaban:

Harry Potter y el prisionero de Azkaban



Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire:

Harry Potter y el Caliz de fuego



Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix:

Some other things that changed that I know of are:



Dementors: dementores

Knight bus: autobus noctangulo

Bloody Baron: Baron sanguinario

Shrieking shack: Casa de los gritos

Wormtail: colagusano

House elves: elfos domesticos



Oh, and one more, but I'm not sure about it:

Blast ended skrewts: escregutos de cola explosiva.



Heh. Those are funny.

Yay! A quest! *fetches shovel*



Quote::
Harry Potter and the Philosopher's stone: Harry Potter und der Stein der Wiesen



It's "Harry Potter und der Stein der Weisen&quot;, not 'Wiesen' in German. &quot;Harry Potter und der Stein der Wiesen&quot;sounds funny though, it means something like 'Harry Potter and the stone of meadows'.



I'll do the German translations, I'm going to print the list and look up the names now.



Wouldn't it be a good idea to also include the names of potions and spells? Most of the names are not translated, or changed only a little, but the potions, spells and creatures are often called completely different in other languages.

Good job, Pen! (PEN! PEN! ALWAYS THE PEN!) However, I think you should use a smaller font on the website, that way you can see more columns at the same time. Also, I'd like to see a symbol for the occasions where the name is not translated, just kept as-is. And a last thing, if you don't center the headlines, so that the lists will line up right under them, it will be easier to distinguish the languages.





Edit: Of course, I can tell this is not the final layout or anything. But I'm anxious to play around with it and I'm somewhat interested in layout matters =)

Hey Padfoot, thanks! I just picked the names in a thread, obviously had a mistake.



I think including potions and spells in a good idea but maybe not yet? I mean, lets finish the characters first. I think it would be too much work for Penny to put everything in the list.



Then, when everything s finished, maybe we can start the rest.

But I think it's a great idea!

Woot! I like the list.



Emma has a point though, the names that stay the same should be written as they are, so that there aren't so many gaps in the columns. But that can wait until the lists are finished, when we know exactly which names have been changed and which haven't.



I've edited some more names to my list above by the way and shall try to get more about the Dutch version. I'll go to the library tomorrow to borrow the books.



Good job everybody. Immeritus rules!

Hey, Catz, my French edition of PS is "Harry Potter l'cole des sorciers". I have the same edition as those in France. Just thought...



Oh, and Whomping Willow, if I remember well, is "saule cogneur". But perhaps I'd need to check this out.



I shall always decide not to decide, unless of course I decide to change my mind.

Woot! and YIKES! Wow, thanks everyone this is great so far!! OK, I'm definitely going to have to install Dreamwever on my regular computer since i'ts so much easier to work on. I don't like the layout of the current list either, Emma, I used Excel because I didn't have to mess with columns and rows and such at the start. But when it saved as a webpage - blegh! - So, I'll just save the current Excel file and web file to my memory key and switch to my laptop (has Dreamweaver--promised Mag a nice web table not icky mess). Anyway, yes, consider the current table that's up a first draft--definitely a working draft, not the final product. I also like the idea of using a symbol for names and such that appear the same in translated edtions, so I'll get cracking on that as well.



Switching to the laptop means I can also be mobile whilst answering the door (Halloween 'Trick or Treat'ers will start stopping by for candy soon). So, I'll get to work adding all the new entries to the list (I may be invisible for a little bit). Oh, and PadfootStar, I really like your idea to include potions and spells and such. I'm going to be pretty busy with the names and things for the present, but I definitely think this idea should be incorporated into this project, so I'll start setting aside room for them as well.



*hands Halloween candy out to thread* Enjoy!



Keep digging!

No way...

Iif the un-changed names are gonna be in the column, I think they should have a different colour so they can easily be distinguished from the interesting ones. Otherwise you'd have to read pretty carefully to spot the translations.

Hi everyone! This project is really coming along nicely. Thank you to everyone who has posted so far. You've all kept me pretty busy today but I definitely don't mind when it's for a good cause <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START Thumbs Up --><img src=http://pages.prodigy.net/siriusblack/boards/smilies/thumb.gif ALT=":ok]<!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->



A few posting requests:

1. Rather than edit in to your original posts with new additions for the list, could you post new posts within the thread? This will help me keep straight what posts I've already been through and which I have not.



2. When you add in the translated text, could you make it a different color? (Thanks for bringing this up, Emma!) I know this may make posting a little longer, but it makes it easier for me and everyone else to read.



To answer some questions:Spellotape is the adhesive tape that Ron uses to tape his wand back together after it breaks in CoS; it comes up fairly frequently in the series.

Durmstrang and Beauxbatons are the other wizarding schools which participate in the TriWizard Tournament, so you should be able to find these in GoF.



In case you missed the link in my original post on page 1, here is the link to the current list . It's fairly large, so it may take a while to load. Be patient! The table borders are acting a little strange, so I'll try and fix that as soon as I post this.



Thanks again and keep digging!



Edit: The borders are only showing up when there is information in the box, so there are blank spaces under languages/names or terms that I have not received information for. Oh, and the table sizes adjust automatically to the length of information in them, so as things are added in, they adjust. This makes some tables larger than others and some columns larger than others, but at least in this table the information is centered correctly underneath the appropriate language.



If you don't wish to type in all the names/terms that are the same in your language edition as in the English editions, just tell me in your post that those names/terms left off are identical to English. Something like, "Those names/terms not included are the same as in English." Right now I'm just using a boring asterisk (*) when terms/names are the same, but I'd like to find a cool symbol or HP specific graphic. If someone wants to find one and post it to the thread, that'd be great!

No way...

Yay, the list's nifty Pen!



There's a slip-up though, Magistra Pomfrey, Magistra Hooch and Decanus Thomas are listed as Romanian names when they should be in the Latin section, so you might want to take a look at that.



I'll be back with more names soon enough.

Wow everyone! I feel like I say this every post.



Miru, I'll fix that Latin/Romanian flub. Sorry about that and thanks for catching it!



Froglette, I'll fix the French mistakes too!



Kip, you've added characters I didn't even remember about they're so minor. I'll pick out the pertinent one and add them to the table; if you're really attached to some of the ones I leave off, please let me know.



Emma, 'Lavendar' is not a typo; she's one of the Gryffindor girls who loves Divination and Professor Trelawney's class. The other is Parvati Patil.



I'm going to update the list on page one in a bit to include what PadfootStar dug up. By the way, I think you need a nickname. It can't be Star, though, because that's Sirius Star. Well, until I or someone else can come up with a better, I'll just call you Pad, or Pads, or Paddy (how Irish!); of course, we could call you PS. Oooh! Or Footy! Someone think of something better, please!!



Anyway, if you all have not already been dubbed by Star, I shall borrow her legendary sceptre and dub you all "Diggers"; feel free to change your siggies. Wink



Edit: The list on page one has been updated. I'm off to update the table.

No way...

Hey, the Book Titles table is missing!!! I can't believe no one caught this--you guys catch everything Wink



All right, so I'm recreating the titles table as well.



Thanks aleksNeri (just aleks?)--this helps!



Question for Nor: 'Dursleyorum' [lit: of the Dursleys]; this is used in what context? for their property? their surnames?



Another request: could you guys let me know if the table is taking a long time to load for you too? I have a broadband connection and it takes quite a bit of time. I'm not sure if it's my server or the file size. I'm afraid dial-up users will be waiting forever to get the table to show. Please let me know.



Edit: I've updates the table page; it's *very* long so make take a while to load. Please let me know if it takes too long--I'm really worried about this. I'm going to re-edit the list on page one; you'll see why when you open the table.

No way...

Hey Penny, I saw the snaps; thanks! But alas, my shovel only speaks American, and Southern drawl at that. This is one excavation I cannot add my spade to.



I still keep checking in, though, in the case anyone has scanned in their covers with any other art. Here's an example, and I don't know what language it is - can anyone tell me?

Hey Accio!!! Cool cover! Well, I feel so proud that I can say this, and I don't even speak Dutch. But that is the cover to the Dutch edition of GoF (see table for fantabulous verification).



Thanks for the offer of the spade; I know that like me you have the American editions, but if you want to look over the list on page one and suggest anything else you think ought to be added to the translation list, please, suggest away! I'm about to update the list again to add magical/dark creatures and magical plants, and some other things. I'm learning a lot on this project!

I was saying also, that it's not fair that Penny you have to do all the work when it's my thread and my idea. I mean it should be me working, and it's you spendng your days doing it! I mean if it's too much work, feel free to give me half of the work!

Thanks, Catz! I have no idea how we'd split this since you don't have access to my server. EZ me and let me know what access you have to HTML-editing programs; I know you said you don't have Dreamweaver anymore, and we'll take it from there.



And, diggers, Accio's requesting HP artwork. I think I'll second her request; this project really has me interested in what the books look like too.

I also have a broadband connection and the table takes about one minute to load. The book titles are there immediately, and the rest appears after about one minute.

By the way, I think you need a nickname. It can't be Star, though, because that's Sirius Star. Well, until I or someone else can come up with a better, I'll just call you Pad, or Pads, or Paddy (how Irish!); of course, we could call you PS. Oooh! Or Footy! Someone think of something better, please!!
Feel free to call me whatever you like. Pad, or Pads, or Paddy are all nice nicknames. PS sounds a bit as if you are talking about the first book though.



And thanks for dubbing me &quot;Digger&quot;, I'm very proud of it! <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START Very Happy --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/happy.gif ALT=":D]<!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->

#51: Lavender/Lavendar, Nicknames, etc. Author: Pen , Location: La la land .... Lovely view ... Wanna see? Post Posted: Tue Nov 02, 2004 03:52 PM
    ----
Hi all,



Posting without officially logging in so I'm sure my avatar and siggy won't show.



Apparently,I don't know how to spell. You're right, Lavender; all this time I'd been spelling it wrong--not even a typo!! sheesh! Sometimes my dumb moments astound me! Heh. I'll fix it when I get home from work.



Pads, PStar (sorry, I'm a sucker for silent "P"s; it's the little things in life...) thanks for the loading update; I'll probably end up splitting some of the table on to separate pages then. I added the book table back in and moved it up to the top of the list; it just made sense to put it in before the characters, etc. Who knows? By the time we're through with this project, each table might have it's own dedicated page.



I also think you're right about Thestrals, we should probably add unicorn to the list. Giants and goblins should go under 'people' terms, no? Anyway, please everyone, feel free to suggest more additions. The creatures and plants lists are pretty thin; the classes one is done (I went to the Lexicon to make sure I wasn't forgetting any). And who knows, Kip, a lot of people suspect Blaise Zabini is going to play a bigger role in HBP so he may get on one of the characters lists after all (he could see the thestrals in OotP; who knows what's in store?). I have a feeling we'll be adding to this tables through book seven, but if we could get books 1-5 taken care of before book 6 comes out, I'd call us champions indeed, not that we aren't already! Wink



Catz, don't get in trouble!! I don't your mom getting mad at you! Just tell her your three Immeritus moms say it's Ok to be working on this Immeritus homework--it's for the community!!

Also, note that all the remaining names from the 'Major Characters' list, except for Moody, Dung, Snivellus, thestrals and Grim are the same as in the English version. The same goes for all the other names in the 'Minor Characters' list, providing that 'Professor' is spelled with only one 's' -profesor- in Romanian.



Oh, and I think that Madam Pudifoot's name is spelled with only one 'd' in the books, not with two as it's featured in the list.



Well, I'm doing my best to scoop up the rest, so look for further updates soon.

Here's a random thing: In my copy of PS (in Latin) The Sorting Hat chapter, the student who gets Sorted before Ron is 'Lisa Turpin'... yet everyone in chat told me Dean is sorted immediately before Ron. I don't know if this is the right thread, but I was distinctly puzzled. Why make this seemingly pointless change? It's not like Dean isn't mentioned... What do everyone's international editions say? Come to it, I don't have my British one here either. What do any editions except Latin say?

Hey Kip and Lara - nice work!! Tell me whether I can help in the Dutch section!



Penny, kudos to you! It is truly wonderful to read all the translations - had to laugh a lot, great translators JKR has worked with!



I noticed that you misspelled Phineas Nigellus (Phineus). Sorry that I am only contributing with that little nitpick...Hope to be of more help with Kip &amp; Lara

I thought I'd put up the covers for the French books. Okay, so I stole most of these off Amazon because I only have PS and GoF in French (the others got lost in a, er, water incident).



I shall always decide not to decide, unless of course I decide to change my mind.

^^ Haha! Love alliteration!



Thanks for posting covers Kip, Paddy, Lara, and Hermi. Really interesting how Harry & Co. get drawn; I was struck by how the French covers 1-3 dressed them with buckled pointy hats--rather Puritan looking, like what we see in paintings of the early Pilgrim settlers here in the US and of the Puritans during the Salem Witch Trials era.



OK, so I seriously need to update the tables and will be doing that today; I just need to post my student's grades first so they'll stop hounding me (Immeritus is such a guilty pleasure!!).



KittyCat, thanks for catching my Phineus Nigellus misspelling; like the Lavender one, this is one I frequently make--my brain does not seem to want to remember how to spell these correctly. That and peak for peek. Edit: Um, now I'm confused. I just checked the Lexicon, KittyCat, and they spell it Phineas: Lexicon . Have you got a UK edition or can someone check the US edition? I'll check back here before I start working on the tables.



Oh, and Paddy, I think 'Paddy' was my favorite one too. Glad you like it!



Does anyone have any insight for Nor's question on Lisa Turpin? My PS copy is another room right now, but I'll see what the Scholastic edition says. Or maybe Star or Accio will be able to answer on Scholastic. Other translations/editions?

No way...

Firstly, I've checked in my book and on other sites, and the spelling everybody uses for Phineas Nigellus is with an -as.



Secondly, my Romanian copy of PS (PS is the only HPbook I don't own in English) says that the girl which was sorted before Ron was called Lisa Turpin. I've googled it and here's what I found on another site.. Lisa Turpin. She's also listed in the HP Lexicon, as being Harry's age (born in 1980) and being sorted in Ravenclaw, which goes with the info in the book.



Edit: I just went through the HP e-book I have on my computer and found this: [quote]And now there were only three people left to be sorted. "Thomas, Dean,"

a Black boy even taller than Ron, joined Harry at the Gryffindor table.

"Turpin, Lisa," became a Ravenclaw and then it was Ron's turn.<hr></blockquote>The text is supposed to be taken after the American version of the book, since it's called SS not PS, so I guess that Lisa shows up in all editions.



I remember running a search through the book when Nor first mentioned the name, but I guess that it didn't yield results because I wrote 'Lisa Turpin'.. it must have searched the full thing, and not the words taken separately. <img border=0 src="http://pages.prodigy.net/siriusblack/boards/smilies/nonono2.gif" />Anyway, so, there's somebody else between Dean and Ron.



Edit to edit: Ack! Wait! Dean is missing from my Romanian version! I went back to the paragraph I have quoted above and he's not there. Weird! Let's see.. the translation is made after 'Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone', Bloomsbury Publishing, published in 1997. What do your books say?

Thanks Miru for the Phineas check. Also, on Dean Thomas, JK has said on her website (Extra Stuff, click on Edits):

Quote::
Anybody who has read both the American and British versions of 'Philosopher's Stone' will notice that Dean Thomas's appearance is not mentioned in the British book, whereas in the American one there is a line describing him (in the chapter 'The Sorting Hat').



This was an editorial cut in the British version; my editor thought that chapter was too long and pruned everything that he thought was a surplus to requirements.

She then goes on to talk about casting for the film adaptation of PS and how surprised Chris Columbus was at the amount of background detail for such a minor character. It appears, then, Miru that your Romanian edition is following the text set by Bloomsbury, even if they are using the American covers. Very interesting.



*runs off to Sirius' bike dig thread*



Edit: Kip, Lara, or RedCat: Aberforth Dumbledore is DD's brother. Kip had said his name is Albus Perkamentus but this doesn't seem right. Is Aberforth not mentioned in OotP?

No way...

Aberforth is mentioned in OotP. He's on the picture Moody shows Harry during their first stay at GP#12. "Strange bloke".

Ok everyone, I've updated the tables. I've also updated the lists on page one and added a few more terms.



Also, I wanted to know if Aberforth Dumbledore is mentioned in the Dutch editions of OotP.



Nor, "aenum numerum quattuor in ostio Dursleorum infixum illuminabat": I don't have my Latin dictionary by me, but this seems to read in reference to when DD is using the put-outer on the lights near number 4 Privet Drive, is this right? So is Privet Drive used at all, or is it Latinized? Or is this reading "number four the house of the Dursleys"?



Oh, and I checked with the Lexicon and they spell Puddifoot with two "d"s. I'm off to search for my copy of OotP to confirm.

I'm back!!! <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START Very Happy --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/happy.gif ALT=":D]<!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> . My test week is almost over, so I can work harder on this now!!!! Woot! (finally hehe)



OK, Here are my things so far, I will edit this list every time when I've found something new, (I will make the edits red) if you think it is easier for you when I post them in a new post it's ok too, just let me know Wink .



Here goes!:



First something in Spanish:Harry Potter and the chamber of secrets - Harry Potter y la cmara secreta. I don't know who does the Spanish translations but I'm pretty sure it is not 'Harry Potter y la camara de los secretos'. The second book is the only book I've got in Spanish, I don't know if there are more versions but mine is like that ^ Wink



Now back to Dutch <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START Very Happy --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/happy.gif ALT=":D]<!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> :



'Lily Evans' is translated as 'Lilly Potter' in the list but 'Evans' is in Dutch 'Evers'. So:Lily Evans - Lilly Evers and

Mark Evans - Mark Evers



Remus Lupin - Remus Lupos. That is already in the list (Prof. R. J. Lupos), but Prof. means that he is a professor (duh) and so he is in the English version. Isn't it better when you just say 'Remus Lupos'? His middle name in English is also with a 'J' so that doesn't matter that much. Oh, now I'm thinking about it, didn't JK mention something on her site about Remus' middle name? Mmm, need to look that up...



Tom Marvolo Riddle - Marten Asmodom Vilijn in the list it says 'Asmodon' Wink



Lord Voldemort - Heer Voldemort so 'Voldemort' is the same as in English and not 'Voldermort'



Alastor 'Mad-Eye' Moody - Alastor 'Dwaaloog' Dolleman. The same as with 'Remus Lupin' Prof. means that he is a Professor.



Arabella Figg (Mrs. Figg) - Arabella Vaals (mevr. Vaals) <--- wasn't complete and 'Mw.' had to be 'mevr.' Wink



Mundungus 'Dung' Fletcher - Levenius 'Lor' Lorrebos



Cornelius Fudge - Cornelis Droebel and not 'Cornelus'



Salazar Slytherin - Zalazar Zwadderich and not 'Salazar'



Luna 'Loony' Lovegood - Loena 'Lijpo' Leeflang You didn't mention 'Loony', maybe you can edit that. This one is a little bit strange by the way. In GoF they mentioned the 'Lovegoods', but only once. In the Dutch GoF they say 'Berkemeiertjes' there, but in OotP they say 'Leeflang'. I guess the translator didn't recognise the name from GoF and invented another one. Never mind, just call her 'Leeflang'.



'Moaning' Myrtle - 'Jammerende' Jenny. Maybe you can edit the -> ' ' <- by 'Jammerende'. Not that anybody cares, but, well just a thought, as nobody knows if her name is 'Jenny' or 'Jammerende' Wink , never mind...



Phineas Nigellus - Firminus Nigellus



Kingsley Shacklebolt - Romeo Wolkenveldt



Zacharias Smith - Zacharias Smid



Nymphadora Tonks - Nymphadora Tops (<--- That's me!!!!! Razz )



Dolores Jane Umbridge - Dorothea Johanna OmberYou didn't mention her middle name, but I thought I could give it to you. You can decide if you want to edit it or not. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START Very Happy --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/happy.gif ALT=":D]<!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> Oh by the way, she is the Hoog-Inquisiteur (High Inquisitor) if you would like to know Wink .Snuffles - Snuffel



Snivellus - Secretus



Boggart - Boeman



Kreacher - Knijster



Grawp - Groemp



Errol - Egidius and not Egedius



Nagini - Nagini (same)



Aragog - Aragog (same)



Grim - Grim (same)



Ok! That was the list with the 'major characters' and that one is complete now! Woot! Woot! Woot! I have to stop now but I'll do the 'minor characters' as soon as possible! Good luck!


Greetzzz Piralara!!!

Ok, I just checked the list for typos in the German terms, and I noticed that you forgot the "und" in "Harry Potter und die Kammer des Schreckens" (HP and the Chamber of Secrets).

Azkaban is spelled with an s in German, so the title of PoA is "Harry Potter und der Gefangene von Askaban".



Now that we know that Phineas Nigellus is also called Phineas in English, you can put a * into the German column.



Here are some names that are still missing:



goblins: Kobolde

Giants: Riesen

Portkey: Portschlssel

Great Hall: Groe Halle

Time Turner: Zeitumkehrer

Anti-Cheating Spell: Anti-Schummel-Zauber

Veela: *

Summoning Charm: Aufrufzauber

Accio: *



And I have some suggestions:

Remembrall

Devil's Snare (plant)

Quick-Quotes Quill (Rita Skeeter's quill)

Edit:Secret-Keeper

Wow, such fast work!! I know, Paddy, I can't believe we're on page 5 already either. Ah, good times.



I'm heading off for work in a bit so I'll get round to editing some more tonight. If you catch any more typos or spelling variations, please let me know.



Also, has anyone been through the Lexicon's list of magical plants? Our list is only three plants longs, and somehow, I'm rathered amazed.



Keep posting; this looks great!

*hands lemonade and cookies to all diggers*



I am way behind, I'll have to find the Afrikaans books in the library once I get home (2 more sleeps and then a week of wedding madness!)



Here are the titles:



Harry Potter en die Towenaar se Steen - PS/SS Eek, I don't know if a Towenaar is a philosopher or a sorcerer. Will look up.

Harry Potter en die Kamer van Geheimenisse - CoS

Harry Potter en die Gevangene van Azkaban - PoA

Harry Potter en die Beker vol Vuur - GoF

Harry Potter en die Orde van die Feniks - OotP









...the feeling returned to him. The hand, the impression of somebody watching over him...

He wasnt alone anymore. He was never alone. Sirius was there, watching. He knew that now. He smiled.

Yay for Afrikaans covers and titles! (((((Evvy))))) Just 2 more sleeps?! Woot!



Right, so I have a lot of catching up to do with the tables, but I'll need to do it tomorrow evening. Don't let that stop your digging, though, friends!

I'm so depressed! One day and a half without Immeritus and there's already one new page!



Penny, I'm sorry but even if there was a way to do it I won't be able to share the work! Not how it's going! There's to many new things when I arrive! It's a pain having loads of different clocks because when it's your day, I'm sleeping and now I'm at school! Even worse!



I can't even follow the snaps, or go on the chat now! Poor me! That's awful!

No way...

Miru!! Thank you, thank you, thank you for the plants!! I was so sleepy last night my brain registered pictures and not text! Please forgive!



Catz, don't worry, focus on homework and school; you're digging is more than enough and is very appreciated--I don't mind the work, this is fun!



Boe and Froggy, don't you dare think of going anywhere! Jump on in and teach us French!! You are more than welcome here. And thank you for posting the Chinese covers. I'd love to add them to our list; I'm just afraid I'd screw the beautiful language up royally.



Well, I'm about to edit the tables and then the list on page one to add the plants Miru compiled for us and whatever other terms have been added by the likes of Paddy Wink

You guys rock!

Boe and Frog, thanks so much for the Chinese covers, those are awesome! (And I've been giggling about MDR all day)



Miru, thanks so much for the translation. *beams proudly at brilliant daughter, and feels like technologically challenged older generation* I wonder why they worked from the Scholastic version (seemingly) when the English versions we get are Bloomsbury? Weird.



Spam, me?



My shovel is packed, and I hope to get my hands on Afrikaans copies soon.

It's nice to see that there's a new digger among us. Welcome, Frog!



I guess this is a bit of a spammy post, since I haven't looked up any new terms. Now that my autumn vacations are over, I don't have so much time anymore during the week.

I should be able do the plants this weekend though.

Hi everyone!



I've finally updated the lists on page one and the tables. Please note, I've added some items to the lists.



Also, just to let you know that I'm copying and pasting your translations directly from your posts, so if there are any misspellings in the translations, they are not intended. Please check over the table. I know sometimes we type when we're in a hurry, a little sleep deprived, or both, so just check over the tables now and then as Lara, Paddy, and Miru did earlier for the Dutch, German, and Romanian entries to make sure they're spelled correctly.



I'm so proud of all my fellow diggers!!

No way...

Penny, in answer to a question several pages back, Privet Drive is not mentioned in that quote. I can't find it in the nominative anywhere, and my Latin brain is not switched on today (I'm shattered) so I'll give you the opening sentence of the book, containing Privet Drive in the (I think) ablative.



Quote::
Dominus et Domina Dursley, qui vivebant in aedibus Gestationis Ligustrorum numero quattuor signatis, non sine superbia dicebant se ratione ordinaria vivendi uti neque se paenitere illius rationis.



(They're very mean to me, putting evil gerunds and things into the first sentence... I so couldn't have translated this as an unseen.)



I really really don't have time for more characters today but I'll do them in the next few days... after this afternoon I have no work at all (!!).

Known aliases: Norus, Norlet, Norletta, Norusinerus, Norwich, Norway, Normandy, Manuel, Squeff, and Plotting, one of the four Horsewomen of the Dan Brown Apolcalypse.



'Leave them laughing when you go, and if you care don't let them know, don't give yourself away.' - Joni Mitchell, Both Sides Now



"'I refuse to prove I exist, says God, 'for proof denies faith and without faith I am nothing.'

'Aha,' says man, 'the Babel Fish proves you exist, and therefore, by your own logic, you don't.'

'Oh dear,' says God. 'I hadn't thought of that' and prompty vanishes in a puff of Logic."

"The marauders" are not translated in the Swedish books, as the expression is only used in "The marauders' map" which translates to marodrkartan (with emphasis on the map, not the marauders). I think the thesaurus should reflect this.



Trelawney and Lockhart (well Lockman) are of course called Professor Sibylla Trelawney and Professor Gyllenroy Lockman.

Hi everyone, here is a few words in french:



Rimembrall : Rapeltout (page 151 of the french edition tome 1) (and not rappetout as i saw ina previous post, but it would be funny because the translation would be stealeverything and not remember everything)



i have see on the official JKR site to be sure : the name of book 6 is : Harry Potter et le prince de Sang-Ml



grim : sinistros



the marauders map : la carte du maraudeur (that is why i think the translation of: the marauders is : les Maraudeurs)



Karkaroff : Karkaroff



professor Kettleburn : professeur Brlopot



diagon alley : le Chemin de Traverse

(and knockturn alley is : l' alle des Embrumes, and i am really sure of it because i am french and i often use those names)



great oncle algie Longbottom : grand-oncle Algie Londubat

Stan Shunpike : Stan Rocade



Veela : Vlane



Grimmauld Place : Square Grimmaurd



sneakoscope : Scrutoscope (page 88 tome 3 of the french edition)



and i think that invisibility cloak is : cape d'invisibilit.



I hope i have been able to help, if i find other i will post them.

This is a great idea.

Hi Avada! Welcome to the digging thread!



I'm sorry I spelt wrongly Rapeltout.



Thanks a lot in putting some names out, you see I couldn't put some because I didn't know what they were in French! I also meman that as I don't have the 5th French book with me I can't look up for all the names. Anyway, thanks for putting the names I can't find!

No way...

I think Privet Drive is in the genitive here. ("...who lived in the house of Privet Drive marked number four..." or something like that) In the nominative it would be "Gestatio Ligustrorum" then. I'm not entirely sure, but I'll ask my father to confirm this. He is also reading PS in Latin at the moment, and he's a Latin teacher, so it won't be difficult for him.



I've looked up some more terms:



The Marauders: I didn't find this as a term, but the Marauder's Map is called "Karte des Rumtreibers", so I assume it would be "die Rumtreiber"

If you are not sure where to look for a term, I found a very good site where you can look up where the terms are mentioned in the books: Harry Potter FactsIt gives you the number of the book and chapter where the term appears and a short summary of the chapter so that you know in which context the term appears. It has helped me a lot with finding some difficult terms, and it's also where I got the above suggestions from.

#104: Re: Titles in 60 languages Author: MrNiceFrog , Location: Paris - France Post Posted: Sun Nov 07, 2004 07:04 PM
    ----
While researching Chinese HP books, I came across the Wikipedia site (Wikipedia is a free collaborative web encyclopedia, to which anyone of us can participate : try it).



It looks like Penny was not the only one who thought that a comparison between all the HP translations would be interesting. They list the titles of the 5 HP books so far in 60 languages. They also list the chapter titlesbut <b>only</b> <img border=0 src="http://pages.prodigy.net/siriusblack/boards/smilies/grnsurprised.gif" /> in about 15 languages. They have also started a "Harry Potter in translation series" and are planning to list translations of people, places and things. Wikipedia is a collaboration on a major scale so there is no doubt that they will quickly get round a lot of languages.



Well, if you can't beat'em join'em. The good thing is, all the good work that everyone at Immeritus is doing at the moment can become part of the wikipedia site, since anyone is allowed to add their two knuts to that site! <img border=0 src="http://pages.prodigy.net/siriusblack/boards/smilies/thumb.gif" /> If we feel like sharing with Wikipedia, we can add to their site if we want to. I'll look up exactly how to do that if you feel like it.



TheWikipedia Harry Potter page is well thought out, clear and very sober. Very useful if you are looking for something quickly. The English version is extremely complete already, with summaries of chapters, descriptions of the various characters, etc. In short, almost everything that is in the HP Lexiconwithout all the embellishments. The French Wikipedia is less complete but may be useful for those of us who are helping to check the French translation. Check your own languages : Wikipedia exists in a multitude of languages.

Hi everyone,



Tables are updated. Welcome Avada! Glad to have another French digger in our ranks. And speaking of French, we have a slight discrepancy which you might note on the tables. At least, I think it's a discrepancy, you may know better, but it needs clarification. Mrs. Norris (Filch's cat) and Mr. Tibbles (one of Mrs. Figg's cats) have been translated to have the same name: Teigne. Could Catz, Boe, Froggy, Hermi, or Avada please double check this?



Froggy, thanks for the links. I've yet to go through them completely, but these should help in our quest. Being as how Mag said our results here would form part of the Encylcopedia she has planned for the new Immeritus site, I think we should continue our dig/compilation. What do you guys think? We could always contribute to Wikipedia as Froggy suggested. Froggy, what exactly would that entail? I have many students who've used Wikipedia, but my own research has never caused me to use Wikipedia, so I'm pretty clueless here.



Shall we:

a) continue the quest?

b) continue to use Wikipedia and other resources (such as Lexicon, HP Facts) in our quest?

c) contribute to Wikipedia?



Thoughts?

No way...

Avada, Spellotape is what Ron used to tape his wand when it broke in CoS. Right? I seem to remember it was only &quot;papier collant&quot;. If anyone finds a right translation, though, that'd be just fine.



I shall always decide not to decide, unless of course I decide to change my mind.

By all means, let's keep digging.

I saw Wikipedia and thought that we could use it both as a source of information and as a way to share our findings with others.

I'm sure it will be great on the new site. Plus it will be the work of people here.



I'll enquire a bit more about how to make contributions on Wikipedia. I had a demonstration by one of my professors and in one minute she had made a change to a site. It looked extremely simple so I'm sure it won't be a problem for all of you computer whizzes.

Hi, i checked, indeed Spellotape is only translated by " papier collant" and that is why i didn t remember it : the translation as lost the magical meaning.

I have seen 2things wrong in the french translation :

nearly headlees nick : Nick Quasi-Sans-Tte. (and not nick quas sans tte)

and i had a really good laught with the other one

defense against the dark art : dfense contre les forces du mal ( and not dfense des forces du mal, because that means that you protect the dark art lol

It's complete with the adult and special editions covers from 44 countries in total, if I counted them right. There's no use to look for them further I guess.

Hi all, tables are up to date.



Lara, thanks for catching spelling and capitalization mistakes. Apparently, I've been misspelling Seamus Finnigan's last name (typically spell it Finnegan--too much James Joyce). Paddy also says she misspelled Sleekeazy's hair potion, so I've corrected that as well.



Lara, you asked about Professor Flitwick's first name, Filius. JK revealed this on her website, so it's not in the books. Also, Madam Puddifoot is in OotP; she the owner of the teashop Harry and Cho go to on Valentine's Day. Should be chapter 25, The Beetle at Bay.

Just to be sure: "The Marauders" (without "map") are never written in the English books either, right? It's just something said on the fansites.

Thanks Pen! I think I can find it now <img border=0 src="http://pages.prodigy.net/siriusblack/boards/smilies/w00t.gif" />, I will post it as soon as possible. Thanks again for 'Filius'; I would have searched hours for it otherwise! <img border=0 src="http://pages.prodigy.net/siriusblack/boards/smilies/redbiggrin.gif" />



Anyway, Em, I was wondering about that too. When I came on Immeritus for the first time I saw everybody talking about 'The Marauders'. I was really wondering who that were, hehe. <img border=0 src="http://pages.prodigy.net/siriusblack/boards/smilies/redbiggrin.gif" /> I never saw something like that in the English books though, neither in the Dutch. So I think it is indeed something that the people on fansites invented. Is that true?

Hmm. Well, asked in chat to confirm and, yes, Emma, 'The Marauders' is a term that the HP fandom picked up, or inferred, from the possessive use in 'Marauder's Map'. Should we take it off the list? I think for our purposes here at Immeritus, it's a term that comes up so frequently that deserves staying on. What do you all think?

No way...

Penny I had a idea, but it would mean more work for you so maybe we'll leave it out.



Maybe we could include the books? I've been reading CoS and if you are interested I'll already put the Gilderoy Lockart books:



Vadrouilles avec les goules

Vacances avec les harpies

Randonnes avec les trolls

Voyages avec les vampires

Promenades avec les loup-garou

Une anne avec le Yti



And also:



Potions au grands pouvoirs (it's the one where they find polyjuice)



Le livre des sorts et enchantements from Miranda Fauconette.



If you are interested, I'll go and find the lists of all the years. Just ez me if you want.

No way...

I think "The marauders" should go off the list. Of course, I could translate it to Swedish, but that would be MY translation, not the official Harry Potter translator's translation, and after all, translation is something subjective. There's no absolute translation for "Triwizard Tournament", and if I were to translate the books I wouldn't have used the same translation as the woman who did the Swedish translations, however, it's her translations I've posted here and not my own (with the exception of HBP).

*looks beseechingly at Penny*



Umm... I know you have already enough to do, and I really appreciate how much work you put into this project, and you really do a great job, I would totally understand if you don't have any more time, but... could we please, please also include the books???



I'd love to do more digging, the weekend is approaching and I'll have more time then. I know I didn't dig up much this week, but that's because of evil school. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :grr --><img src=http://pages.prodigy.net/siriusblack/boards/smilies/grr.gif ALT=":grr]<!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->



I think 'The Marauders' should stay on the list. It's such an important term in fandom, and 'Die Rumtreiber' is also used on German fan Sites, I think. (I don't spend too much time on German fan Sites, now that I know Immeritus)

But Emma, if it's difficult to translate into Svedish, or if there are many possibilities to translate it and you don't want to put a subjective translation in the thesaurus, we could just leave out the Svedish translation.

Heh. I actually had been thinking of suggesting the books as well. Could we hold off on these, though, for a little bit? I know some of you are going through exams and such right now, and, while the digging terms we've already got are almost all translated, the potions, spells, plants, and creatures tables still are pretty incomplete, and there are some who are still catching us up on people/blood terms and places/things. I know how much fun we're having, I just don't want angry parents and teachers banning you from Immeritus or anything; truth be told, I'd miss you too much! I don't think you'll have to wait *too* long to see the books list go up, maybe in another week or so? Would that be OK?



This table of fandom terms is an interesting idea. Are there many other canon related fandom terms out there though? Please enlighten me on this. My reasoning for keeping 'The Marauders' on the list is that, since this Thesaurus is primarily for Immeritus and Immeritan use, and being that Sirius is our focal point for being here, and he is one of the Marauders, the term ought to be included in case people have no idea what we're talking about. This is a term that we use quite often here; we even have a discussion board forum called 'The Marauders'.



Another option is designating it with a special notation of some sort, like we did with * (which I'd still like to change to something cooler) to note that it is not canonical but fanonical, particularly at Immeritus (though I, too, have seen it used at other fansites). Thoughts?

No way...

Penny, you're right, we should try to complete the plants, potions and spell tables first before starting with the books.

It'd be perfectly all right for me if you put up the books in another week or so, because at the moment I'm still busy with the plants.



Now that it's weekend I finally had time to look up some more of them:



Aconite: Aconitum

Monkshood: Eisenhut

Wolfsbane: Wolfswurz

Wormwood: Wermut

Belladonna: *

Cabbage - Kohl

Daisy - Gnseblmchen

Dittany: Diptam

Flitterbloom: Flitterblume

Flutterby Bush: Ginsterbusch

Fluxweed: Flussgras

Ginger: Ingwer

Hellebore: Nieswurz

Holly: Stechpalme



And I have again some suggestions:

Forbidden Forest

Chinese Chomping Cabbage (plant)

Switching Spell

Colour Change Charm

Growth Charm

Slug-vomiting Charm



Quote::
...and now our list has become very big and it's like a dictionnary!
When I read that I had an idea... Some of the tables are already very long and it's sometimes hard to find a particular term. Maybe it would be easier if the terms were in alphabetical order?

I don't know if it's still possible to rearrange the terms, and it would mean a lot more work for Penny.



*feels guilty* Penny is the one who works the most on the Thesaurus and I'm still suggesting extra work for her. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START Surprised --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/embarassed.gif ALT=":o]<!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->



Penny, don't take any notice of what I have just written unless you are extremely bored and don't know what else to do!

Paddy: I've already done it but thanks for suggesting your help! The list will be up tomorrow, I just need to look over it again to see if I've missed some.



I'm sorry for not putting any other names but I can't seem to find the potions or plants names anywhere in the French books! I guess I have to search better!

No way...

Heh. You guys must be exceptionally good Divination students--Professor Trelawney must be proud.



Alphabetizing is the next order of business, especially for spells, etc. The plants are already alphabetized as are the classes (those tables are so easy to update because of that!). I don't know about the characters though; perhaps after the *major* major characters (Harry et al.) the rest could go alphabetical, same for the minors. Though, I'm also thinking of keeping certain characters grouped together (ie. Marauders, teachers, ghosts, students). I think this will make the most sense, especially in the final draft version of the tables. How is the table size/width thing now? Is it still a pain to read some terms when the row heading gets beyond the left margin of the computer screen? Please let me know as I could go in and adjust the table width and override the automatic width adjustment.



I'm going to wait to update with the Spanish and German terms Alex and Paddy just posted to see if anyone else posts this weekend, then I'll do a mass update (though this may not include the alphabetizing as that's going to take a little longer).



Catz, I'm looking forward to seeing that book list. Also, you said you were having a hard time finding the plant names in your books. Check the Lexicon here as they state in which books and which chapters the plants are mentioned. Also, check the Lexi here for potions information and where to find them mentioned.

No way...

Okay so here's the book list, but just for you too know there are not all there, I only put for the moment the basic books, the ones that are on the school list that Harry and the other students need for their classes. I'll put the other books later (the ones he uses in GoF and Cos most), it's just a start today. Also because the books are in my parents' room and my dad is sleeping!



Book list:

Anyway, I'm going to repeat myself: this isn't the full list.

Hey gang,



I've updated the tables and the lists on page one to include Paddy's latest suggestions. I'm going to start working on alphabetizing and would still like some more feedback on what we should do with 'The Maruaders' term, and how the table width is doing.



I'm holding off on putting the textbooks list on page one, to give those of you still catching us up to get through the terms/names already up.



Thanks again for all your hard work!

I'll check out the textbooks later today. Um, there's only one problem, Penny, I can't see the list. I clicked on the link in page 2 as I usually do, and all I get is a blank page. Is it just my computer's fault, or does everyone get the same thing?



And about The Marauders, I think we should leave it in. Maybe put an asterix to it saying it's a fandom term.

You're right Miru! I get a blank site too! Mmm, that's strange! I usually click on the link on the first page but that one isn't working either.... Do you know what's up, Pen?



If you can get it working again, could you check those new characters I found in my last research-post? I thought you didn't put them in the list. I'm not sure though. I will check it when the list is available again. I'll post here if you put them in or not, ok? <img border=0 src="http://pages.prodigy.net/siriusblack/boards/smilies/pumpking.gif" />.

I also only get a blank page! That's strange, because yesterday the link was working fine.



I agree on The Marauders, they should stay in the list, but you should add that it does only appear in fandom.



Um, that was kind of a spammy post, I guess. Sorry, no German terms for today!

Everything is/was current above my last post on this page, Lara.

Hey Pen, yes, it works for me now.



I checked it out and found some mistakes in the French names:



Major Character section - Peter Pettigrew is the same in French as it is in English.



People and Blood terms - Half-blood is "sang ml" and not "sand ml"



Magical/Dark creatures - Werewolf is Loup-garou



I have also seen some accents missing, I will give you the list later, as I have a class really soon. Sorry to make you work so hard!

    ----
Ooh, thanks, Froggy, Hermi, and Catz. And, yes, if the accents weren't posted correctly, they went into the tables that way since I'm copying and pasting entries into the tables (I'm only fluent in Spanish and English, so those are the only languages for which I could correct grammar). I'll hopefully be able to run another update tomorrow night.



Lara, somewhere earlier I had posted that some of the minor characters that were quite minor and don't enter into discussions that much might be left off the lists. At that point, I had suggested that if they become important or more prominent in the stories we could add them to the lists. I don't recall any objections to this, but if there are, I would love to hear them. This is, after all, our project, not mine alone.



Ideas on very minor characters?

Also, I was thinking about 'The Marauders' and thought I could change the font color and a note at the top of the tables stating that such and such font color denotes a fandom term.

Last, has anyone been able to find a cool little Harry Potter-related graphic which we could substitute for the asterisk (*)? If you have, please let us know.

I know I know a spamming post again. I'm so sorry for the accents again. I'll just answer Penny's question. I haven't a site to suggest but maybe instead of the * we could put a lightnening shape? I mean that's the shape of Harry's scar so maybe it could do.

The lightening sounds like a great idea...because no matter where you are, it is something characteristical of HP. It could apply to mean that "it's the same".

But I don't know where you could possibly find one...sorry.

That's a neat idea, Catz. If anyone has time (as I don't at the moment) to look for a graphic or entice one of our more graphically inclined fellow Immeritans to create one, that might be a cool little take on *.



Alex, lordy no! Please continue with your translations--I don't have the books in Spanish and would end up making countless errors.

BTW, the red for the fandom terms looks great!



And Penny, to your question about the table width: Yes, on my computer it's still difficult to read the Russian, Spanish and Swedish translations, because you always have to scroll back to the English column. Especially the 'people' and 'blood' terms table is extremely broad.

On other computers like those in my school, there is no problem at all. I think it has something to do with the screen's resolution, which is 800x600 on my computer, and 1024x768 on the computers at school. But since I don't know very much about computers, I am probably wrong.



Catz, the lightning bolt is a great idea! I looked around for a graphic and this is the best I found:

I don't know if you were thinking of something like that, and if you have anything better, you can still use something else.

Hi all,



Thanks for posting more. Kip or Lara, I want to make sure the accentuation for the Dutch terms Kip posted above is correct before I paste them into the tables.



And Paddy and Catz, I know I said this in the snap thread, but thanks for the lightning bolt. What does everyone think of this? Has anyone talked to Miru or Accio or Jas (the graphic design resident experts) to see if they had any ideas on maybe creating a little graphic for us? Another thing I was thinking, since this is the SBFC, is using a little paw print. Hermi, this would be under yours and Mag's purview on whether we could use the official SBFC paw print. What do you think?



I'll update the tables in a day or two, maybe Tuesday after work since I have off the rest of the week for the Thanksgiving holiday. Until then, post to your time and hearts content. And to those of you in exams or writing essays, best of luck to you!



xoxo

Did somebody mention my name? Oh, yes, I see. Well, I've gathered some pics of lighting-bolts when I first saw the idea pop up in here, but I didn't get to make anything out of it. Also, I listed some more terms, but my computer crashed when I was typing it up, leading to a full Windows re-install. 'T is annoying, but I'll work it out tomorrow when I get back from school. Doesn't everybody just love short school-days? <img border=0 src="http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/wink.gif" />



Edit: How about something like this <img border=0 src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v343/Fleur17/paw-smallanim.gif" /> instead of a lighting bolt? (I can make that look better <img border=0 src="http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/wink.gif" />) Hm, but it would work better as a mark for fandom terms than all over the page, replacing '*'. Hm, I'll go back to the drawing board.

Shall we:

a) continue the quest?

b) continue to use Wikipedia and other resources (such as Lexicon, HP Facts) in our quest?

c) contribute to Wikipedia?
My vote is for Immeritus first, then once the tables are at a good updating &quot;ceasefire&quot;, then Froggy can contact them at Wikipedia and let them know what we have done. Wikipedia can then either quote Immeritus or put a link on there to all your hard work.



Or did I miss what the final decision was on that?



As an aside, Froggy, I apologise - when I mailed the Xmas card to Boeluen I didn't realize I should have put both your names. I came across your pic on the Pics of Us page later. Sorry!

Thank you sooo much RedCat! I didn't have time for ages to do some research... I had lots of troubles at school and also a bit with my parents and stuff, so I couldn't be on here very much. Just a question, are you Dutch? How did you find the names? *is just curious* Wink

Oh, I saw some mistakes though, if you want I'll catch them for you, is that ok? Just one little problem... I don't know when; it is a very long list and I do have a very long list with things to do for school too <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :worry --><img src=http://pages.prodigy.net/siriusblack/boards/smilies/iiworry.gif ALT=":worry]<!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> ... Never mind... I will find some time.

Accio, I'm all for continuing the quest. I'm not contributing much at the moment because I have the books in English and haven't bought the French copies yet. I tried downloading them but could not find them. It's there in Spanish but not in French. Oh well, I will find them eventually.



Regarding Wikipedia, there is no need to contact them. You and I (or Penny or someone else) can just get into the site and add to what already exists. Of course we could add a link to Immeritus but that could get deleted by someone else, since anyone has access and can modify all the contributions. The only reason I see why it would not get deleted is JK's backup of Immeritus on her own website. It gives Immeritus the legitimity that many other HP fansites lack (and do not really deserve anyway).



I'm planning on a little contribution on the way the French translators invented their own puns and funny translations (eg : choixpeau for the sorting hat, which is quite clever). But that will have to wait for a bit.



[Accio, no prob for the card. Boe and I share everything anyway, even if my name is not on it. And I love your card. Much talent. And that means I also need to have a closer look at the rest of your artwork]

Wow Redcat! That was really kind to do that!



As people maybe know school's been killing me lately, I haven't any time to myself and even less for the net and researching.



Maybe Bo could do some of the French names that are left? It would be very kind, but I know you don't have the books so if you can't just leave it!



No way...

Hey everyone! I've updated the tables and added a few of the pertinent terms suggested by KittyCat to the lists in my first post on page 1. Kip, Lara, and KittyCat, since you're our resident Dutch experts, please double check the tables. I pasted terms straight in, but on some I had to combine since 'Het' or 'De' were used by one of you and not the others. Also, I need clarification on Dutch translations for OWLs and NEWTs. Kip's got

Quote::
NEWTS - PUIST ( it means pimple), Proeve van Uitzonderlijke Intelligentie en Superieure Toverkunst..

O.W.L - SLIJMBAL ( this means slimebal), Schriftelijke Lofuiting wegens Ijver, Magische Bekwaamheid en Algeheel Leervermogen

and RedCat's got

Quote::
O.W.L.s: PUISTEN (= pimples)

N.E.W.T.s: SLIJMBALLEN (slimeballs)

So which is correct? OWLs are the exams taken 5th year (which Harry & Co. took in OotP), and NEWTs are taken 7th year.



Miru, I really like the glowy paw for fandom terms; what does everyone else think? That bigger graphic, is that the Order of the Phoenix symbol? Which does everyone prefer to replace *, a lightning bolt or the phoneix icon?



Froggie, your Wikipedia article sounds really interesting; please let us know when it's up.



Also, I'm wondering what to do about the Latin and Russian columns. Should we get rid of them for all tables except the book titles? There's not much activity for wither language thus far. Latin, influential language though it is, isn't actually spoken on a daily basis outside of classrooms. And, do we know if we're serving any Russian HP readers here? If any join later, Russian could easily be added. What do you all think?



Thanks again and much luck to everyone busy with end of term work!

No way...

I agree that we can take out the Latin and Russian columns for better clarity for the time being. I believe that only PS/SS has been translated in Latin so far so we would be missing a lot of terms anyway. We should ask Nor, I think she has the Latin version of the book.



As for my contribution on the French translation, it was late last night (the upstairs neighbours were having a party and I couldn't sleep) and I did not make much sense. I meant a contribution for Immeritus not for Wikipedia of course. I am no traitor ! What I have in mind would fit right in this thread or a very similar one. It is a study of how translators have solved the untranslatable English puns and made their own puns. Hope this clears things.<img border=0 src="http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/wink.gif" />

*hands out freshly baked cookies to diggers*



And a whole lot of new terms to look up! Woot!



Nott (Death Eater): *

Weird Sisters: Schwestern des Schicksals

Miranda Goshawk: Miranda Habicht

Professor Armando Dippet: *

Parseltongue: Parsel

Drooble's Best Bubblegum: I only found Droobles Best Blowing Gum which is Bubbels Bester Blasenkaugummi, I dont know if I looked up the right word



Accio and Frog, I think I said that before, but Im also all for continuing the quest on our own. Looking at the almost complete tables makes me feel proud. Mag is going to include our results in the new Immeritus site, I think.



The glowy paw for the fandom terms is a great idea, Miru! I wouldnt use it for the not translated terms though, it would be too irritating. Im all for the phoenix icon to replace the *.



I think it would be the best to get rid of the Latin and Russian colums. The tables are too broad and you cant read the colums on the right properly. Without the empty Latin and Russian columns it will be easier to read.

Kip and Lara, thanks for correcting my list. I had a migraine coming up when working on that list and then I am not the clearest thinker...Ooh, but did I have fun!! And yes I borrowed all the books (except OotP) from the library!



And Marauders: hm...have been thinking about it. Marauders' Map = Sluipwegwijzer, where sluip is to sneak around while wegwijzer is a sign, or map. So sluipers would be "own" immeritus translation!



Miru, I love the glowing paw thing. Great idea.



By the way, Penny, would it by nice to sometimes have a translation with the translations? Confising English indeed. But like with the PUISTEN, it is nice to know that they mean pimples...You could add it in brackets.

Woot for posting without logging in! My apologies as I'm right tired and about to head to my bed.



Froggie, thanks for the clarification..that going to be a new thread then? I'd love to see what else translaters have done. We Americans (or at least me and a few others here at Immeritus Wink ) are always complaining about the edits made to Britishisms we'd get. Of course, knowing some of the younger HP readers here in the States, they wouldn't get many of the terms without help, but I say, So what? Learn!! Anyway, that's just me I guess. Not all Americans are dumb, despite what the UK Daily Mirror said.



Miru, edit images, suggest new ones at your leisure--I know you're super busy right now.



KittyCat, no need to duck. I was going to put in the acronym translations. Heh. Great minds, eh?



Kip, Lara, Catz, and anyone else not posting right now because of work/school schedules: come back to us when you can! I wish you all the best with the end of term craziness!!

RedCat,



Your idea is very close to what I had in mind about explaining the puns invented by the translators. Your example is a good one as well. So maybe I'll do a post but also maybe the translation chart could indicate an explanation of the translation in another language. My example from the French translation is this :

Sorting Hat = Choixpeau [combination of Choix (choice) and Chapeau (Hat) but sounding very close to chapeau]



Voila ! Of course, not all translations need an explanation. But it would be added value and added interest to the chart.

I did, but if anyone wants to go ahead and start compiling the translations notes (Emma's got loads that are really interesting, Froggie), I'd appreciate it. Post here if you'd be willing to go through the thread and compile these notes (that way we'd all know who to direct translations notes to); you'd, obviously, need to add to it as people add more notes. This will make up part of what we submit to Mag.



Also, those of you who've been through the Confusing English thread (as I have not, thoroughly), are there any translation notes there? I'm sure there must be, but if you know for certain, and whomever volunteers to compile the notes for us does not know, this information would be useful.

Emma, I had not had a look at the first pages for a while and I forgot about the explanations of the translations that you gave. Anyway, what you started is exactly what I meant to do, except that I meant to dedicate a long post to funny or particularly good translations and inventions.

Yes, Penny, we could definitely go through the thread and look up the notes that have already been made. And that does not prevent anyone from making new notes and remarks on translations that they find interesting.

Wow, Miru. Looks like we're both finding productive Immeritus ways to take breaks from work Wink Thanks!



Froggy, so are you volunteering to compile all the language translation notes, or just the French ones? Not trying to force you into anything, my brain's just having trouble computing right now. If you're not, the call for compiler of all language notes still stands--it would be a great help to have these all in one document.



I'll update again sometime this week..heh. Wait, it's Wednesday night! I'll update in the next few days.

Hi everyone!

*hands out hot chocolate milk with marshmallows and chocolate chip cookies*



To redcat and Lara.. I like Sluipers, I think that's the best translation we can get. It fits them too..



About he Latin and Russian translations..

I think we should leave the Latin ones in.

JK uses alot of Latin in the books, so maybe in the future we can use them for some kind of riddle or something she made up (we all know she likes that).



I will look for other translations..



Bye Bye..

titles of the books in the different languages are written in capitals except the Dutch books so here goes:



Harry Potter en de Steen der Wijzen



Harry Potter en de Geheime Kamer



Harry Potter en de Gevangene van Azkaban



Harry Potter en de Vuurbeker



Harry Potter en de Orde van de Feniks



Harry Potter en de Halfbloed Prins



As you may noticed Feniks is written with ks and not x. (OMG! Why didnt I notice that before!?!?!)



Im not 100% sure you write Halfbloed as one word but in chapter 7 of CoS I saw we write half-blood like halfbloed, so I guess the title will be that way too.





Major Characters



Aberforth Dumbledore Desiderius Perkamentus (not Desederius)



Viktor Krum Viktor Kruml (and not Victor)



Dolores Jane Umbridge (Hogwarts High-Inquisitor) Dorothea Johanna Omber (Hoog-Inquisiteur van Zweinstein) (in the list it says Hogwarts so I would edit van Zweinstein (title of chapter 15 OotP) but if you think it doesnt really matter and gives you only more work, just leave it.)



The Marauders De Sluipers (Do you agree Kip and Redcat?)





Minor Characters



Marge Dursley Margot Duffeling (I dont know why it says tante (which means aunt) in the list, but that is a bit obvious isnt it? I mean, in the English books shes Harrys aunt too, so maybe you can remove that part.)



Hannah Abbott Hannah Albedil (not Hanna)



The Bloody Baron De Bloederige Baron (with De)



Mrs. 'Gran' Longbottom mevrouw Oma Lubbermans (we never say mevr. always mevrouw)



Uncle Alphard Black Oom Alvoleus Zwarts (capital)



Madam Puddifoot (proprietor of tea shop in Hogsmeade) Madame Kruimelaar



Nott Noot (not Vleeschhouwer, that is another Death Eater: the one who had to execute Buckbeak.)



Professor Armando Dippet Professor Armando Wafelaar (with professor and his first name)





People and Blood Terms



Muggle Dreuzel (Dreuzels is plural)



Unspeakables Verbloemisten



Pureblood Bloedzuiver (not Volbloed)



Half-Blood Halfbloed (see titles)



Muggleborn Tovenaar uit een Dreuzelgezin (I think that is a better translation, as there isnt just one word for it)



Goblins Kobolden (kobold is singular)



Metamorphmagus Transformagir





Kip, Redcat, I need some help with the terms 'legilimens' and 'occlumens'. They are translated kind of weird in Dutch, so could you please look at those?





Oki, that was it for now, I hope I can continue with the 'Places/Things' soon, but I don't know when I've got time...

Froggy, I'll join you in collecting notes - first for the Dutch, maybe later for other languages. Penny, is there any way we can publish them on the languages page?



And I'll try to get a Dutch copy of OoTP for further digging.



Lara and Kip - I've thought of e-mailing the translator Wiebe Buddingh' (haha - a real Harry Potter name!) to suggest "sluipers" for marauders. But apparently he is quite a recluse, and I haven't found an e-mail address. Any ideas? We could email the publisher (De Harmonie).

*blinks again* Gulp. Yippee!! Another long list! Thanks Lara and Emma.



KittyCat, I've been meaning to tell you--your Cheshire Cat avatar is dead cool. Melikes.



As for having the translations notes on the language page, I think you mean on the tables page, and yes, they will be placed there. I like the idea of leaving the Latin in for reference purposes, but I don't know if this is something that can be added along the way as we learn more (not that we haven't learned a lot already through 5 books!), or if it can be eliminated from most of the tables because the spells and such already cover the majority of the Latin phrases JK uses. What do you guys think?



I'm going to tackle the alphabetizing and splitting up of tables on to separate pages after the semester ends in two weeks, just to let you know--I'll have all the time in the world then, thank heavens! In the meantime, I'll keep updating the tables as normal and eliminate the Russian columns from all but the Book Titles table. I'll hold off on the Latin columns until I hear from more of you, but right now it looks like you want them eliminated from all tables except Book Titles. What about leaving the column in for the Major Characters table? That's where Nor gave us more translations. Maybe if Santa brings me HP in Latin I can tackle some of this. I do have my handy dandy little Latin dictionary. *happy sigh* I love Christmas dreaming....

No way...

Pennoodles, I agree with everything you've said (especially about the avatar - I'm really chuffed about it! Thanks!). I agree that there is probably no need to translate the Latin-based spells. But we can add translation notes (if that's what you mean).



I'll have a look whether they have the Latin versions in our very large public library here in The Hague and I can help you. My friend Procrastination will certainly stimulate me to give priority over finding (and learning) Latin over doing the laundry, writing work articles, cooking dinner etc etc.



But first I will add to the Dutch list, and compile the tranlations notes.

Wow Miru! Thanks for the long list! That will keep me busy for the weekend. This week was tough - German, English and Chemistry exams, but I think now that it's over I'll have more time for digging. Yay!



I, or actually my dad, owns a Latin version of PS so I could also help with some terms. The problem is that only PS was translated into Latin, at least I think so, and many of the Characters/terms don't appear in the first book. Maybe we should leave the Latin columns in the Major Characters Table only, as most of the minor characters don't appear in PS.



Edit: Found some more terms:



Weasleys' Wizarding Wheezes: Weasleys Zauberhafte Zauberscherze

Cleansweep: Sauberwisch

Nimbus: *

Wronski's Feint: I noticed a typo here, its called Wronski Feint; Wronski-Bluff

Gobstones: Gobsteine

Wizards' Chess: Zauberschach

Wadiwassi: another typo, its Waddiwasi: *

Priori Incantatem: *

Finite Incantatem: *

Manticore: Mantikor

Wow, it's almost a week since I haven't been in here. I have so much work I can't do anything else no matter internet. I haven't even time to eat when I'm at home! It's so bad! Anyway, it will be better in a week because all the first exams will be over and it will be closer to the holidays. I'll be able to come more often now. I'm really missing Immeritus!



I haven't really had time to read all the new pages so could someone tell me what's going on? What are the new plans? I saw something about alphabetizing the list, it looks like a good idea. Like that it will be more as a dictionary now!



For the moment I can't put new French words in because I don't know them of by heart and it means I have to search. But as you know for the moment I can't.



I just looked in the list, and spotted one little error:

Siraines, is Sirnes in fact. My mistake.



Parseltongue (snake language) is Fourchelang

I managed to look up a few Latin terms in my dad's Latin version of PS, since the Latin columns are still quite empty. I think (I'm not entirely sure) that all the names are in the nominative.

Gregory Goyle: *

Vincent Crabbe: *

James Potter: *

Lily Potter:*

Albus Dumbledore: *

Justin Finch-Fletchley: *

Terry Boot: *



Quidditch: *

Gringotts: *



Herbology: Herbologia



That's it for now. I think we should leave the Latin tables in, and use another sign for the words that are not in PS, because the other books weren't translated into Latin (I think). Any ideas?

I'm at the local library at the moment, where I sometimes work on Sundays. There are German versions of PS and CoS, so I thought I'd seize the chance and look up the missing German terms of PS and CoS, because I don't have those books at home.



So far I've got:

Babbling Curse: Babbelfluch

Kwikspell: Kwikzaubern



I'll edit more later!



Edit: I didn't have time to look up more terms, there were too many customers. Unfortunately, I left the window open and when we wanted to go home, my co-worker closed all the windows and she saw that I hadn't worked all the time. You should have seen her expression when she read &quot;Immeritus - the Sirius Black fan club&quot;!

Hi all. I've just compiled the list of what needs updating (10 pages long...eep!), so I'm going to get on that now. I just wanted to pop in here and answer a few questions/comments I had overlooked.

Yippee! Thanks Froggy and RedCat for volunteering to compile the translations notes (if I'm reading this wrong, please let me know). I truly appreciate this! :luv



RedCat also said:

Latin translations notes would be interesting; I know Paddy's dad has the Latin PS book and is well versed in the language. Hmm. Paddy, since you went and translated those terms (which I noticed *after* I deleted all the Latin columns from the file...*sigh*), do you think your dad would be willing to help write or compile translations notes on Latin?



As I said, I deleted the Latin and Russian columns from all tables but the Book Titles. The files not uploaded yet, but the tables are more readable now (you hardly have to scroll to the right to see things as much).



There was something else, but I can't remember what. Sleepy time. I'll be back when I remember.

Penny, I'm sure my dad would be only too happy to help me with the translation notes, since he is very fond of Latin. He always gets very enthusiastic when he's asked something concerning Latin, and he's glad that I show an interest in Latin, which is the most important subject at school, according to him. (Of course I don't tell him that I'm only interested in Latin when it comes to Harry Potter... at school it's sooo boring) Wink

He already helped me with the translation of the Sirius line in the latin edition of PS when we were digging for that. It won't be no problem at all to convince him to help me this time.



Also, I have a Harry Potter dictionary, which contains translation notes on some of the Latin spells. For instance it says "Accio" means "I fetch" or something like that. I can't find it at the moment. (I'm suspecting my brother, I'm sure it's somewhere in the mess in his room...)



*points at new siggy*

I'm advertising the International thread a bit... There isn't much going on lately. Maybe there are people out there who would love to help us digging and just don't know that this thread exists. I know there's probably nobody who hasn't heard of the thread yet, but one can always try...

Yay! Paddy, that siggy rocketh, as do you!!! I think we've just all gotten snowed under (no pun intended) with end of school term stuff, at least I know I have. Advertising is *such* a good idea!! Perhaps you'll inspire some new diggers Wink And did you say you have a Harry Potter dictionary? Oh my goodness! Oh my goodness! I want one!!! Please post or email me the title and author!!



And KittyCat, take your time compiling the notes. You've certainly been patient enough with me, for which I am eternally grateful. Plus, the holidays are upon us and Christmas break...woot!!!

Penny, you wouldn't be able to make any use of that dictionary, since it is an English-German dictionary. It contains "normal" English words as well as the words JK created. There's some information on what the English names and terms and the Latin spells mean in German, and also myths about creatures, wands, and other magical things.

All the information is in German though, I have to translate it if I want to use it for translation notes.

The title is "Groes Zauberwrterbuch Englisch-Deutsch" and it's from Langenscheidt, but it won't be of any use for you, and it's only available in Germany or Austria.



I'll start with the translation notes in the Chrismas holidays, and I'll also look up more Latin terms. My dad agreed to help me a bit, but he has only read 4 pages of PS, so he doesn't know many Latin names yet. Hopefully he'll continue reading in the holidays - as a teacher, he doesn't have to work either. Otherwise I'll have to look up all the names myself.

Hello Diggers,



so migraines are useful after all. Got home from work early (migraine). Cured migraine. Had a post-migraine buzz, and compiled the notes! It was great fun. I can certain recommend doing it over the Christmas Holidays!



Chief-digger Penny: I have them in Wordfile. Please ez your e-mail again and I can send them to you as an attachment!

SQUEE!!!!!! Thanks for migraine induced translation note, KittyCat!! (Psst, my email's in my profile per Mag's request for the move).



Paddy: Aw shucks! Too bad I don't know German *le sigh* Thanks for the title anyway, though. If Santa doesn't bring me HP in Latin, I'm going to get it myself. I don't know how much help I'll be in translating Latin, but it'll be a fun little questy! Thanks again to you and your dad!

I did some digging today when I was very exhausted after spending hours in crowded shops buying Christmas presents. Digging can be really relaxing! <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START Very Happy --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/happy.gif ALT=":D]<!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->

Paddy! Wow - you did your Christmas shopping already? You are an organised person!



Btw you could give your dad the list Penny compiled for the latin-based spells - I'm sure he'll have loads of fun with "translating" them. I am compelled to buy a Latin dictionary myself (hmmm....idea, Christmas gift to myself?).

Back to what I wanted to ask: Would you be interested in the Danish versions of the names, spells etc.? I'm Danish and have Danish editions of all the books, so it wouldn't be too difficult for me to find. I can't promise that I'll be incredibly quick, but I'll promise to be as fast as my life will allow.



Interested?

Thanks Paddy -it was actually your advertising which got me to check out the thread.



(Sorry about the spammy post -my mind stopped functioning properly the moment I discovered the release date, out of sheer joy)



I dare say my life cannot be much better at this moment -no school until January 3rd, loads of presents only days away, my shovel ready for some sirius (pun intended) digging and the release date published -nope, there's not much missing!

Moon, I dub you an official Immeritus digger with this. Welcome in our midst!

I thought about dubbing you before, but I wasn't sure if I'm allowed to dub you. Usually it is Penny or Star who dub diggers. I hope this is OK with you!



Oh, BTW, isn't it a little confusing that we call you Moon when moonanddogstar is also called Moon? I'm starting to confuse you with each other! We should come up with some other nickname, methinks...



I'll start digging again as soon as school is over! (Only one more day...Yay!)

Well, we don't want to call BlackMoon "BM" for short. No, I agree, "Blacky" is better. Unless you have a real name you'd like us to use.

Hey MichaMoon! Welcome to the International Diggers' Den! Yippee - another language!



Pen - have you asked Santa for a copy of PS/SS in latin or have you been greedy and asked for the whole series! In my Christmas Holiday I will visit the library yet again for ta copy of OotP in Dutch and try to find out whether they have the series in latin as well. Then I can help out. I don't know latin at all but have always wanted to learn it. I think it would be great fun to get a grasp of it through HP!

RedCat, I always thought that only PS/SS has been translated into Latin? Apperently I was wrong. I only have PS/SS, so I won't be able to dig up terms that don't appear in the first book. I'd be glad if you could do the remaining terms!



Oh, and Blacky sounds nice. But if you prefer, I'll call you Micha. Or MichaMoon Wink Just let me know what you'd like to be called.

Woot! Guess who has time to update tables??!! Yay! MichaMoon--that makes life much easier. And, Paddy, I don't know if it is official that Star and I do the digger dubbing. I think it's any digger who can dub. Anyway, I love having more diggers on Immeritus :luv Oh, and I didn't get HP in Latin for Christmas :wah Perhaps I'll have to gift myself. Hmm. There was something else I should've gifted myself, but I can't remember what.



*disapparates to update tables RIGHT NOW!*



EDIT:Just read page 84 of the Snaps, Paddy--I :<3 you!No way...

I just discovered a mistake I made in my entry with the list.. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START Embarassed --><img src=http://pages.prodigy.net/siriusblack/boards/smilies/blush.gif ALT=":blush]<!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->



I wrote Grisling as a translation for Pigwidgeon, and i just remembered (and double-checked in GoF) that the actual translation is 'Grisligiano'. I have no idea why I made that mistake! I'm most compelled to think it was a matter of momentary brain-malfunction. I'm really sorry for any inconvenience.



I swear, I checked that list at least three times before posting; how on earth could I have missed it?! Oh, well, there's nothing I can do about it *sigh*.. I'm off to edit the original post, as to not confuse anyone; and then I'll return to digging and reading. My parents gave me four HP-related books for Christmas -yay! And I'm well on my way with the next part of the translations (and IpromiseI'll check it five times before posting the next part; and then check again!).



Sorry to hear about the missing present, Penny <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START : --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/ohwell.gif ALT=":]<!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->

Hi everyone,



I've updated the tables and am now in the process of alphabetizing them as well. You'll find some new features on the tables, so please let me know what you think, and let me know if there are any errors. MichaMoon, don't feel bad about making mistakes--we all make them and that's OK. We can always correct them. And Miru, thank you so much for alphabetizing the spells list for me! :luv I'll be adding to the lists next time through as well as Miru and Paddy have included new terms.



Thanks again, you guys, and thanks also for being patient and waiting for this long overdue update.



I'm off to continue alphabetizing!



xoxo

YAY! Danish!



It would be cool to have close languages next to each other, for comparation. Of course, it would be difficult to settle on the exact order.







Skaevben is a cool translation, we could have had that too and not have the confusion with Viktor Krum. But maybe Skevben is too close to "skenben" (one of the bones in the calf).



I also lvv "Dunst"... hehehehehehe.



What kind of disease is mnesyge, Michamoon? (It does mean "mnsjuka", right?) It has a wonderful sound to it even though I'm unsure about the exact meaning. Very Luna!



Skraeck-je is cool as well. And I like Krone; I have never been satisfied with the translations of the nicknames, I'd like Kronan for Prongs. I like Ormehale too but that wouldn't work as good in Swedish.



Hehe, Rita Rivejern... I'd like that for a name =).



GLITTERIK SMRHR!!!!! W. o. n. d. e. r. f. u. l.







Can you tell I'm into translations? Wink So cool to finally have Danish, now we just need a Norwegian to be complete. How do you like the Swedish, Micha?







----

Pen, you can put "marodrerna" for The Marauders, and add it's not an official translation.



"Aunt" in aunt Marge is translated too but I'm uncertain to what, but of course she is Vernon's sister so I'll say 99% certain it's "faster Marge Dursley".

It was a great idea to put the English column on both sides of the tables, now you don't have to scroll back to the left anymore when reading the columns on the right.

It's much easier to find a particular table and the site doesn't take so long to load now that you've split up the tables on different pages.



Great work!! <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START Clap! --><img src=http://pages.prodigy.net/siriusblack/boards/smilies/clap.gif ALT=":clap]<!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->

Thanks, you guys -I can't help it, I just hate making silly mistakes, that's all *sigh*



I'd like the Danish and the Swedish next to each other as well, if it's possible; it's fun to compare related languages.. And it would be great to have Norwegian translations.



Emma, I think 'mnesyge' means 'mnsjuka' -'moonsick', right? (I know I should be able to tell, what with Danish and Swedish being so closely related, but I'd just like to be sure I'm not misunderstanding)



I've looked up 'mnesyge' in my dictionary, and it actually has a bit of history. Another word for it was 'lunatism', and it used to be applied to persons who were crazy or behaved oddly around the moon -kind of makes you think of lycanthropy, doesn't it?



Oh, I like the Swedish! 'Monstergat' is just great -and 'Slingersvans'! 'Dyngan' is quite good as well, as good as 'Dunst', hehe.. Does 'Krake' mean crow, or am I getting my languages mixed?

'Gyllenroy Lockman' is good, but I admit I like the Danish translation a bit better. Just gives me this mental image that fits perfectly with Gilderoy, especially his personality. This sparkling man with "perfect" hair..

Cool, "mnesyge" would be kinda close to "lunatic" then. I am deeply in love with the word (mnsjuka/mnesyge, not lunatic), I wish I could take it as a middle name!



Crow is krka, krake is a poor person, maybe someone sick, but it can also be someone of low morality. Someone that don't have powers for anything, not even doing what's right. It can be used in both a good and a bad way - you feel sorry for a "stackars krake" but you can also say "var inte en sdan krake".



I prefer the Danish for Gilderoy to. Smrhr... hahaha, now that's a name I DON'T want ;). But Glitterik would be cool Wink

Ah, yes, I thought I might be mistaken with the whole crow thing.. At least I wasn't that far off, the spelling is somewhat similar.



Mnesyge is quite a nice word, isn't it? I like it, too. It just has this ring to it.. I've always had a fascination with the moon, just look beneath my name (Moonlight Marauder didn't come from nowhere..).



I actually used to hate the translation of Gilderoy's name, but the more I've thought about it, the more I absolutely love it. As I said, it's just absolutely perfect for him Wink

Seems like just like the Swedish translations, the Danish does not translate names, apart from some very special cases. Smrhr is indeed a very special case =)



I like the moon too... really used to like the name Luna (still do but since OotP it's not "my" name any more). Mnsjuka... I think I'll give it my own meaning and use the word a lot. But first I need to make sure it isn't a Swedish word already.

Sweetie Catzeyes - I did the translation notes - not just the translations (except for some of the "magical" plants that I could find in the dictionary). The notes explain the translations, the langauge puns, such as "mnsjuka/mnesyge" Emma is raving about.



The translations notes are really fun to do, some of the finds the translators came up with are really good! I share Emma's enthusiasm!!



So Catzeyes, Dr. F., please look at my translation ntoes whether I have caught all the puns that were intended with the translations.

Out of severe boredom today I have been reading the OOTP for the God-knows-how-manyeth-time and I think I've got a few Minor Characters or terms which I couldn't see on the list at the beginning (but then again, I am needing to get new glasses).



Gurg - term meaning the Chief of Giants

Karkus - previous Gurg (got his head chopped off)

Golgomath - new Gurg (Chopped head off) (Ch. 20, P380)

Gubraithian Fire - Everlasting fire (I thinks it's a charm since Hermione says Flitwick mentioned it, but could be a plant)

Tasha, thanks for the minor characters additions--I'll throw those in right now as I'm in the middle of another update.



Miru, yes the link changed if you bookmarked it, but it is correct in my first post in this thread. Here it is also: HP Translations Thesaurus . Sorry for the confusion.

Penny, if you need help with alphabetizing, just let me know. I really wouldn't mind alphabetizing some of the lists. Just let me know which you haven't done yet and I'll get started on them.



I'll print Miru's list of the Latin Spells now and then I'll give them to my dad. Let's see how many of them he can really 'translate'... <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START Hey! Hey! --><img src=http://pages.prodigy.net/siriusblack/boards/smilies/heyhey.gif ALT=":heyhey]<!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> .

Aw, sweetie, thanks for the offer. I actually printed out and went through the lists and alphabetized them on paper two days ago. I just haven't had time to sit and beginning editing the tables (which is what I got on the computer to do this morning Woot! ). So, progress is being made. I'll post more on this later today.



Also, KittyCat, I've received 5 emails from with you with translation notes stuff (4 were there waiting for me this morning). Thanks ever so much :luv I hope So, Ive got compiled notes for French and Swedish now, and Latin is trickling in. That leaves some of the early notes on Romanian Miru had posted earlier in the thread and MichaMoon's notes on Danish which are starting to be posted. I'd say we're in fairly good shape, no? Compiling the translations notes into some semblance of conversation and evidence is my next task, but let me just finish the alphabetizing now.



Thanks everyone!!

I'm afraid I'll be pretty much caught up in homework over the next period of time, but I'll dig as much as I'm able to.

Besvrgelser is sooo much cooler than Trollformler. But I like svartkonster more than mrkets krfter. Spdom is better than spdomskonst (shorter) and eliksirer is WAY WAY WAY better than trolldryckskonst (more mature).

Hi all,



Sorry not to have given you another update last night--I had a migraine and after it broke was on another dig with Miru. Anyway, the minor characters table is alphabetized and up on the web. I've added three new characters to it, so will be adding those to the list in my first post on the first page since I'm off to alphabetize that now.



Micha, I'll add in the Danish translations for classes as soon as I get a chance; thanks for your hard work and don't worry about school interfering with your digging--we all have our obligations, so take care of yours and come dig for us when you have time Wink



I'm glad everyone is pleased with the tables. Please refresh my memory, did we ever decide on what image we wanted to replace the asterisk (*)? If not, could we come to a decision on that now? Miru and Paddy (I think it was you, Pad) had posted some images a few pages back. I'd like to replace the asterisks when I've finished alphabetizing and creating the Textbooks table. Thanks again for everything everyone!



xoxo

On page 8 Miru suggested a blinking paw (she is so gifted with the computer). I really liked that one.



And heaps of golddust from the dig sprinkled onto you, Penny! You are truly wonderful.

I don't think we did decide actually. If I remember right it was a lightening image and I had the idea of it. But I don't remember people showing pictures and deciding.



I think we need a vote on that so everybody gives his choice.

Can we introduce a poll in this thread - or is that only possible when opening a new thread? Or is a poll too heavy-handed to decide on something small? Anyway - I'll be happy with whatever Penny decides she likes. I have a great trust in her sense of judgement!

Oh, right, we didn't decide on the * yet.



Much as I like Miru's blinking paw, I think it would be irritating on tables where there are many * such as the Major characters table. I'd use some not blinking symbol there, because the blinking symbol could be distracting when used so often on a page, methinks.



As far as I know, a poll is only possible when opening a new thread. I don't think we need a new poll thread though. Everybody could just post their opinion in this thread, and then we decide what to do.



Another thing, what do we do with the books? Do we include them or not? Or haven't we decided yet? A few pages back somebody (it was Miru or Catz I think) posted a list of books but nobody started "translating" them yet. So what do we do about them?

[quote]Much as I like Miru's blinking paw, I think it would be irritating on tables where there are many * such as the Major characters table.<hr></blockquote>Yeah, Paddy's right, I don't think that the glowing paw thing'll fly.



I tried to come up with something else, but nothing seems to work out. Maybe we should go with the plain ' - '.



Penny, I tried to think up a new theme for the pages but my Dreamweaver won't cooperate on this computer. I'm sorry. *gets new idea* Mmm.. (to be continued..)



About the textbooks list, I think we should leave it in. There aren't that many books anyway, and we could always complete the list. I'll get started on translating them for my share of the work.



By the way, I love the new list layout and I'll be back with more terms soon.

Miru, don't sweat the Dreamweaver--it's fine. I would like something a bit more splashy than the grey, but as Mag will eventually be taking this over and incorporating into the new site, plain grey will be easier to manage for her, which is why I used a basic table and simple links and anchors for navigation. But hey, what theme were you thinking of? Maybe if Mag thinks it's spiffy we can use it. *plots* <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START Hey! Hey! --><img src=http://pages.prodigy.net/siriusblack/boards/smilies/heyhey.gif ALT=":heyhey]<!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->



If you really want a poll, we could start one, but I also think we can handle the * replacement decision-making in thread here. You know, Paddy, until you mentioned the flashing paw dangers, I hadn't even thought of it. Good catch. I really feel this should be our decision, not mine alone--this is our project, I'm just your techie really Wink Catzy, you posted the lightning bolt, no? What about a non-flashing paw? The SBFC paw would be nice, but we'd need permission from the authorities. Hermi, are you lurking here still? Hmm. Anyway, whatever you guys decide is fine by me.No way...

I like the paw idea! I must say the lighteing was maybe going to be a bit long because the spaces are quiet small!!



I just went to see the list again to see what French names you were missing and I saw that you hadn't put some that I had already posted. I think it was in places.things but I can't remember. I know that there was "Wizzard Chess" in it and "Chocolate Froggs" maybe you could go back a bit in the pages just to check?

Yes, lurking's the word. lol. Actually, I just hadn't checked it in a week or two. I, too, like the SBFC paw and I don't think there'd be a problem, but I think graphic stuff is Mag's decision, seeing as she's the one who made it.

Thanks for the head's up, Hermi. As Jas would say, you're ace!! Wink



So my question now to the rest of you is: would you like the SBFC paw to replace the *? If so, please post in thread so I can ask Mag. If not, let's try to reach a consensus of what image we'd like. Could we do this by Monday, January 10? I know several of you have multiple projects going right now, so a simple "I like 'this or that'" response is fine, and I'll see where we go from there.

I do like the paw <img border=0 src="http://pages.prodigy.net/siriusblack/boards/smilies/bl_paw.gif" />: it's directly linked to Sirius and it's not blinking and blinding like the lightning bolt might be.



By the way, I updated the translation notes from RedCat's version above ^. I might come back with more later in the week or next week-end.

Sorry for the really short post, I have some Latin translation notes on a piece of paper, but at the moment I haven't got time to type them. School starts again on Monday and I'll have some exams right after the holidays, so I don't know how much time will be left for digging...Don't worry, I always need something to procrastinate. So I guess I will be digging even if I'm not supposed to have time to. Wink

Yeah, I like the idea about the paw. Only one thing, maybe it's just me being weird, but I don't really like that blue paw... What about a rank-paw? Personally I like the purple ones a lot.









(Do you? I mean really? Do you like the purple ones?!?! *gapes* I didn't know that!!!



ugh, sorry, I did know that, never mind her, just she and her purple... *grumble grumble* stupid alteregocloneypants...



Why am I posting?! I'm changing them to yellow! *cries* :no nooooooo!



yeah, sure, whatever... *rolls eyes*)









*Ahum* Sorry about that, but what do you think? I dunno if we can use a single paw; maybe they've got a kind of 'rank-status' and we shouldn't use (or 'misuse') them for something else too... I don't even know if Mag will allow it. But it's really something from here, from Immeritus, so that would be good wouldn't it?

All for purple paws!



Anyway - here are more translations. Lara, can you help me with Godric's Hollow? Can't find it!



I have also added some additional words (from OoTP) that are not in the thesaurus yet. Here goes:



Magical Plants : Dutch

Fanged Geranium : Getande Geranium (Lit. Translation)

Flitterbloom: Fladderbloem (fladderen = flutter)

Honking daffodi: Trompetterende narcis (trompet = trumpet)

Mimbulus Mimbletonia: *

Venamous tentacula: Langdradig weekblad (langdradig = long thread but also tedious, weekblad is literally weak leave, but also means journal. So it reads: tedious journal)



Magical/Dark Creatures : Dutch

Doxy: *

Thestrals: Terzieler (ter ziele means being dead)

Porlocks: *

Kneazles: Kwistel (from kwispelen, which means wagging a tail, and verkwisten means to spend)

Knarls: *

Bowtruckles: Boomtrullen (boom = tree)



Potions : Dutch

Blood-Replenishing Potion : Bloedverversend Elixer (lit translation)

Draught of Peace: Flegmaflip (flegma = phlegm, flip is derived from vlaflip, which is a dessert)

Strengthening Solution : Krachtwater (literally strength water)



'People' and 'Blood' Terms : Dutch

Firewhiskey: Gloeiwijn or Oude Klare's Jonge Borrel (I found two. A borrel is schnapps, or jenever. Oude Klare is another name for jenever)

The Quibbler: De Kibbelaar (kibbelen means to bicker)

Pensieve: Hersenpan (hersenpan = cranium) I don't like this one - I feel that the translator wanted to be funny. Pijnszeef would be nicer, pijnzen=ponder; zeef=sieve)

Hog's Head: De Zwijnskop (lit. translation)

Auto-Answer Quill : Betweterveren (betweter: is a know-it-all, like Hermione)

Extendable Ears : Hangoren (literally hanging ears)

Skiving Snackboxes: Spijbelsmuldozen (lit translation)

Nosebleed Nougat: Neusbloednoga (lit translation)

Puking Pastilles: braakbabbelaars (lit translation)

Fainting Fancies: Zwijmzuurtjes (zuurtje=a sweet)

Wiznegamot: Wikenweekschaar (wikken en wegen = weigh the pros and cons)

RC, some of those I already found, I dunno which exactly... I'm sure of the legilimens and occlumens thing though, I did a long time over those heh, as there are a few names for it.



Anyway, I think that Godric's Hollow is 'Halvemaansteeg' or something like that. I know that DD or Hagrid says it in the first chapter of PS. Could you look for it please? I don't have time for it now... Need to go! *runs*



*runs back* Didn't I found that one already? *goes to look at the list and edit later*



Edit: I'm sorry RC, I remember again. I began the list for my next post a month ago or so, but I never finished it. In that list were indeed the occlumens/legilimens and halvemaansteeg thing... I'm sorry but I can't look at that list now as it is in my laptop *sigh*... I'm not even sure if I'll have that list again when I get my laptop back .:no

Emma and I discussed that it would be nice if similar languages would be next to each other - e.g. Afrikaans, Dutch and German next to each other, and Danish and Sweden also. We could also assess the translations and bestow an Immeritus Best Translation award? OK will stop this brainstorm *clutches head*



Lara - Godric' s Hollow = Halvemaansteeg?? Talking about mistranlsations! Halve maan steeg = half moon alley. I will check also.

I still cannot beleive that the Dutch translator turned Godric's Hollow into Half Moon Alley...he made Lily and James live in an alley!!??



Godric's Hollow sounds so rustic, warm, a beautiful (rural countryside) place...Half Moon Alley sounds like a creepy alley in a creepy neighbourhood in a creepy city...Half Wit Alley.



On a Dutch fansite people discussed that the translator obviously didn't know the significance of Godric. And he obviously thought that Godric's Hollow was a street name, and not a village. Did he get that information from JKR? Is there a significance in Half Moon? Or was he completely clueless when he translated that?

Redhat - then you should know that stormhatt means "storm hat". It is incredibly cool. But it lacks wolfish feeling, of course.

Woot, I'm in a digging mood right now! Unfortunately, I have to go back to school right after posting this.



Thanks to a prolonged lunch break I'm done with the Latin names of the Major character table now:



Fang: Dentatus

Mrs. Figg: Domina Figg (her first name isnt mentioned in the first book)

Cornelius Fudge: *

Lord Voldemort: Dux Voldemort (on the tables the Dux is missing)



All the other Names do not appear in the first book.



And I did some of the Minor Characters:



Katie Bell: *

Dedalus Diggle: *

Dudley Dursley: *

Marge Dursley: Margarita Dursley

Fat Friar: Frater Pinguis

Argus Filch: *

Marcus Flint: Marcus Silex

Haha Emma - you called me RedHat! I love it. As do I love Storm Hat. If I ever need a new username it will be Stormhatt Wink .



Paddy - As most of the spells are based on Latin - they will probably be the same in the Latin version of PS. Was your father going to do translation notes, or can I do those (fingers are itching to do this particular dig).

I'm really sorry RedCat, I already did most of the Latin spells translation notes (with help from my dad). I only have them in German though, I still have to translate them into English.

*feels guilty for keeping RedCat's fingers itching*

You can dig up any other Latin translation notes you'd like, just not the spells.



The reason for this post is that I have now dug up all of the Minor characters in Latin:



Miranda Goshawk: *

Angelina Johnson: *

Mrs. Gran Longbottom: Domina avia Longifunda

Parvati Patil: *

Pansy Parkinson: *

Madam Pince: Magistra Pince

Ronan: *

Alicia Spinnet: *

Mr. Tibbles: Tibbles



The remaining ones do not appear in PS.

Exploding Snap: Snape explodiert

A complete mistranslation, methinks. It means &quot;Snape(the character) explodes". Has Exploding Snap anything to do with Snape?

Exploding Snape?? What on earth was that translator thinking?? Maybe he misread "exploding snap", or assumed that it was a typo, but honestly, that is just plain wrong..



I've almost completed the list of 'People' and 'blood' terms, and I just wanted to give you those I have:





Muggle: Muggler (Just Danish spelling)



Veela: Willie (I have no idea why they changed this)



Unspeakables: Ubenvnelige (more or less literal)



Parselmouth: Slangehvisker ('snake-whisperer')



Pureblood: (I've not been able to find the exact reference, but I'm pretty certain this is it: fuldblod. I'll keep looking to be sure)



Half-blood: (I haven't been able to find the exact reference here, either, but I think this is it: halvblod. I'll keep looking for this one, too)



Muggleborn: Muggler-fdt (literal)



Mudblood: Mudderblod (literal)



Centaur: kentaur (just Danish spelling)



House Elves: husalfer (literal)



Death Eaters: Ddsgardister (I'm not sure what the English word for 'gardist' is. (Emma, maybe you know?). 'Dd' means death)



Goblins: nisser (nisser are usually connected with Christmas, but I suppose it's pretty literal)



Giants: kmper (literal)



Squib: Fuser (means 'dud')



Metamorphmagus: Metamorfmagus (just Danish spelling)



Animagi: (Animaguser? Logically it would be, the singularis form of the word is 'animagus')



Mermaids: havfruer (literal)



Secret-keeper: hemmelighedsvogter (literal)



Auror: *





Could anyone please point me in the right direction with the words 'Legilimens' and 'Occlumens'? I haven't been able to find them, and I simply cannot remember which scenes they are mentioned in. I'll keep looking, but after having been through OotP five times, I'd like to get just a little clue. Thanks.

A gardist would be someone who's a member of gardet, right? A garde is a group of guards.



Vilie is Swedish for veela, Rowling didn't make them up. Willie could very well be the Danish word.

Thanks, Emma, that was what I was thinking. It reminded me of those guards outside Amalienborg in Copenhagen, they're called 'gardere'.



Though, I think it could also mean someone who's in a.. what's it called, marching band? If you've been to Tivoli in Copenhagen you might know what I mean by it, if you've seen 'Tivoligarden'?



I've actually never heard about neither Veelas or Vilier, but it seems very logical that Wilier would be the Danish variant.

I looked up vilie at some point and did actually find them somewhere. Otherwise I wouldn't have known about them.



With garde you can mean a group of some kind too, but I think that is "i verfrd bemrkelse". "Ltta gardet" means prostitutes, "damerna i ltta gardet". Livgardet is a part of the army, the ones that guard the royal castle and stuff like that.

Really, you found them somewhere? I'll go look for them, I've become curious now..



I see what you mean about the garde, I think it's supposed to be 'i overfrt betydning'. I just can't forget the image of 'Tivoligarden' -the Death Eaters as a marching band. Maybe that's their secret passion? Wink

Interesting! Garde in Dutch also means guard - but it has a military connotation - certainly not a marching band (had to laugh about the idea of death eaters in a marching band!)



Penny - how was you trip! Glad you are back!



Michamoon - Legilimens and Occlumens (as in persons) are hard to find - legilimency and occlumency (as in the skill) are easier. Try the first lesson with Snape when he explains everything.

RedCat, what we are saying in Scandinavian is that the original meaning might be guard, but that it's also extended to cover other sorts of groups.

OK, I'm going to be very honest with you all and tell you I won't be able to update in here until at least next week. I'm finishing up one essay and then have to begin my last one (:w00t ), but after that I'll have some time, it's just I have to meet this deadline for these two essays this week.

Hogwarts Classes:

Defence Against the Dark Arts: Defensio Contra Artes Obscuras

History of Magic: Historia Artis Magicae

I didn't find Flying - it only says that the pupils went outside to learn how to fly or something like that.

The other classes do not appear in PS.

*nods head* I got that! In Dutch it only means guard, with a military connotation. Interesting how similar words get a different meaning over time. For instance we have a Dutch word wijf or wief, which is probably derived from the same word as wife, but in Dutch it has a different connotation - it is a somewhat derogatory term for a woman...

Portuguese would be an ace addition, as in very welcome!! Thanks Trish! Post your translations here at your leisure.



Update on the update: Well, I'm working on that last paper which must get done by the 20th now, so that's where my head is right now. It seems school has hijacked most of us lately, so I know you all understand. And thanks, again, to KittyCat for emailing me alphabetized stuff. Just so you all know, I have alphabetized the remaining lists, I just need to update the files. Something tells me, though, that paper procrastination/thinking time may result in translations thread updating, so be please stand by.

No way...

Salut tout le monde !

As you know, I am away from Paris most of the week which is very bad for family life and for keeping up-to-date with Immeritus. However, this situation is good for the translations thread because the friend I'm staying with owns a copy of Harry Potter in French (except OotP). So I have started reading PS/SS in French. And I have also looked up a few missing words and expressions. So here is my contribution for the week (expect more next week <img border=0 src="http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/wink.gif" />)Major characters:

Fang : <b>Crockdur</b> (and not Crokdur)Places/things:

Wronski feint : <b>Feinte de Wronski</b>Potions:

Skele-Gro : <b>Poussos</b> (Pousse-os = "Grow bones")Spells/Jinxes/CursesMagical/Dark creaturesMinor characters:

Dave Gudgeon (almost lost an eye trying to get near the Whomping Willow) : <b>Dave Goujon</b>Magical/Dark creaturesPlaces/thingsPoA, Bloomsbury, p. 240:<hr>"This might help, look - a Manticore savaged someone in 1296, and they let the Manticore off - oh - no, that was only because everyone was too scared to go near it..."<hr></blockquote>

Sorry, I didn't explain very well : I did not mean that the text was still in English but rather that it was completely left out (there is no French translation for that part). It is entirely missing. You may say that it does not matter very much for the book as a whole. Still, if I were JK I would not be pleased that my text was altered.

I think something was changed in the Swedish version of GoF - Hermione comes off as more girly and useless than in the original. This was a feeling I got the first time I read it, not any more, probably because I'm so used to it. Gotta re-read at some point and find it.

I've got the same kind of feeling with the Danish translations, Emma, only with how Harry appears in all of the books. He seems more.. well, angry, in the English than he does in the Danish. Nothing I can pinpoint, it's more this sense of his mood being better in the Danish versions.



About the missing pieces, I actually think I found something missing a while back in the Danish, but I haven't been able to find it again, it might just have been my memory failing me.

Oh! *hits forehead* Sorry, it was early morning. Razz I know I had a list of stuff like that that was left out in the French translation, but I can't find it for the life of me. It isn't the only example of it. They probably tried to cut down... I mean, the French books aren't very thick, even though in theory they should be thicker than the English ones.

I don't know if I've said this somewhere, but welcome to the International diggers, Trish! Portuguese is indeed a nice addition to the tables! Woot! Woot!

I'm always happy to see new diggers!



As to the missing sentence, I just looked it up and it's there in the German version. The German books are a lot thicker than the English books, so I don't think they have left something out. It's strange that they cut short the French version though, what if they accidentally cut out some important hint?



Now to the digging I did yesterday when I wasn't at school, since I'm a bit sick at the moment. I hope I don't catch the flu like my parents. There is a nasty wave of flu in Upper Austria at the moment, it even was in the news on TV.

Woot for Polish! Thanks, Loe, and welcome to the dig. Some of the characters look like superscript numbers and inverted question marks in some translations, and I have a niggling suspicion that may not be right. If it's not, maybe the correct characters will be preserved in an EZ or an email (address in my profile)? Please let me know.

No way...

#301: More French translations Author: MrNiceFrog , Location: Paris - France Post Posted: Sat Mar 19, 2005 04:08 PM
    ----
I have started reading both PS/SS and PoA in French now and I'm trying to keep a full list of terms or expressions introduced by JKR and the way they were translated into French. The list is getting long quite quickly but I don't have time right now to give it in full. Besides, I will probably wait until I have read all the books in French, which might not be before the summer because of work, etc.
Anyway in the meantime, here are a few words I identified in the list as missing :
Magical plants :
Aconite : Aconit
Asphodel : Asphodle
Monkshood : Napel
Wolfsbane : Tue-loup
Wormwood : armoise

Potions :
Draught of Living Death : Goutte du Mort Vivant (This potion is missing from the list)
Bezoard : Bzoard (the accent is missing in the list)

Another remark regarding the differences between the Bloomsbury edition and the French Folio Junior edition : some passages that are in italics in the original are in roman in the French version. One example of this is when we "hear" Harry thinking.
Powdered root of what to an infusion of what? Harry glanced at Ron who looked as stumped as he was. (PS, Bloomsbury, p. 150)
Poudre de quoi, infusion de quoi? Harry jeta un coup d'oeil Ron qui parut aussi dcontenanc que lui. (PS, Folio Junior, p. 139)

Many more words that are italicised in English for stressing purposes are obvioulsy left in roman in French, where the accentuation is absent.
Eg. How can you be nearly headless?
Elsewhere, the accentuation is rendered by onomatopeia
Eg : Get off, Scabbers! : H, laisse-moi tranquille, Crotard!

*hangs head in shame*

Ugh. I seriously need to update the tables. Ok, let's see. I've got my HP study being written at the moment so as soon as that is done (note, it's due April 1), I should be back in business over here. I'm so looking forward to getting back my life.

'Tis okay, Penny, don't worry about the tables. I'm sure everybody around here understands if you don't have time for them right now because you're busy. You can still update the tables after you have finished your work, they won't run away. Wink

No new Latin terms from me, I took a Latin exam on Friday even if I was sick, and now I've had enough of Latin for some time, methinks.

Dr F., so interesting that wolfsbane is tue-loupe (lit kill wolf). Coincidentally, I received a message from Emma in which she writes:
"Wolfsbane potion is translated to stormhattselixir, I've written that before, and stormhatt is the literal translation of wolfsbane (flower). The new thing is that I found out the flower can also be called "vargdd" -"wolf death". Think "vargdd" is folklore, used in Northen Sweden. Apparently Linn called it Aconitum lucoctonum in Latin, which also means "wolf death". The stormhatt only exist in Northen Norway, Sweden, inland and Russia and Sibiria but aconitum lucoctonum also covers some plant from the Alps. Not sure if it's the same plant or not but I guess it ought to be? Stormhatt had some other Latin name too.
I'm not sure what flower is actually which, but anyhow, another (folklore)name for stormhatt is vargdd ("wolf's death" or "wolfsbane" for that matter) and that might be of interest for the thesaurus =)"

Well, wolfsbane therefore means "wolf's death" - does this mean that the potoin made out of wolfsbane is actually dangerous for Lupin, or does it merely "kill the wolf inside of him"?

What's in a name.....

Edit: an afterthrought. Wolfsbane is very poisenous apparently. And it does not kill the wolf inside, because that would mean Lupin would be healed. It probably just drugs the wolf inside. To kill the wolf you would maybe need more wolfsbane, but that might kill Lupin as well....

Ok - this was a little side thread in itself. Back to translations!

Hi everyone!

Guess what I've done? Hee. I've updated tables! Woot! What I've done is finish off the alphabetizing for all tables EXCEPT the Spells table--Miru had posted an alphabetized list but I need to play with the order of spells and incantations on the existing table before I can complete the update of that table. Once that's done, I'll go through and add in everything that's been posted since my last update run--sometime back in December--eek! The lists on the opening post of this thread also reflect the alphabetizing.

Yay! We're almost caught up again! Cool

((((Penny)))) Well done!

I've looked at the new tables and I saw a few French words that I remembered. I'm not putting everything now but I'm on holidays so I should have some time.

French

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phenix: Harry Potter et l'Ordre du Phnix (you must have forgotten it because I'm sure I gave it to you)
Parseltongue: Fourchelangue
Great Hall: La Grande salle
Exploding Snap: La bataille explosive
Cleansweep: Brossdur
Chocolate Frog: Chocogrenouille
Nimbus: *
Weasleys' Wizarding Wheezes: Farces pour sorciers fatcieux
Memory Charm: Oubliettes
Summoning Charm: Accio: *
Waddiwasi: *
Basilisk: Basilic
Bowtruckles: Brotrucs
Centaur: Centaure

I'll have to go and check the rest and I will be back!
Oh and I spotted some words that Froggy gave you and that you haven't put it maybe you just didn't see them?

Edit: SORRY it was the spell tables =]

Yay! (((Penny))) great job.
Razz
Now that the tables are almost finished, I suddenly remembered our idea to link up with Wikipedia? Or did I dream this some months ago - my memory on it is kind of hazy... But in general, it would be great if other people all around the world could enjoy our hard work!

Nor adressed this thread to me yesterday, and I do my part by adding the Finnish translations here. Please note that I read HP UK versions, and therefore I'm not able to remember all Finnish names and places right away. I'll edit this later.

EDIT: Ready!!! WOOT!

Yay, Blue! Shall add Finnish to the tables in my next update (which is way overdue). Add and edit at will; it'll all go in. And if you have any suggestions for any terms overlooked, please drop them in here as well.

Woot for Finnish!!! (((Bluebird)))

I shall now officially dub you an official Immeritus Digger. Welcome! I'll warn you though: Digging can be addictive!

*sighs* Somehow I miss my old siggy...

I already noticed... Wink But I don't mind at all. I like searching, and have found very many interesting sites (which naturally have nothing to do with Harry Potter) in the process.

I think I'll add your dubbing into my siggy. Smile Gives me some inner respect.

And Pen, I'll put Finnish translations for dragon and different dragon breeds, unicorns and other magical animals that were not mentioned yet. There were also some people, spells, magical items and places missing in the list, I'll add those too.

Wow, I haven't been in here for ages..

I just came in to apologize for not exactly being the most participating these last few months. I've actually not got any digging done, and with my schedule the next month, I probably wont be able to do so until after June 17th.. I have a major essay/exampaper this week, and after that I have 5 exams. I *will* get around to digging once I get past the exams, but I'm feeling quite guilty about this, and I just wanted to let you know that I haven't vanished completely.

Don't feel guilty, Micha. We're all rather swamped at the moment. Come back to us when you can; take care of you first.

*hugs* Good luck on exams!

Thanks for your effort, LadyFresh, but I'm afraid that was pretty much in vain, since I did all the German terms already. We've been working on this project for some time now, and the German tables are complete, I think. But thanks nontheless for trying to help, and welcome to the Diggers!

BTW, where are you from? I've never seen anyone from Germany or Austria here before.

Just for the record, LadyFresh, my first post in this thread not only lists which terms/names we've translating but also has the link to the compiled thesaurus thus far.

On that note, I'll take this opportunity to let you know that I am working on that very long overdue update--God bless summer vacation!

More later!

I'm finally completed the Finnish terms. Hooray. Smile You find them on page 21, Pen.

Then, I'd like to share the Finnish covers. At least Accio was interested seeing foreign ones. Pics are .png, they take some time to load if you have a slow connection. Be patient.

Just a quick heads-up to let you know I finished alphabetizing the Spells table while waiting for midnight, July 16 to roll around. I still have not added Finnish to the tables nor updated, I believe, what the latest additions in French, Latin, and German. This is OK as I want to impress the importance of the two-week ban on HBP items outside of the HBP forum. In the meantime, I'll update what was last added by all and hasn't yet gone in. Once two weeks have passed and everyone's read, we'll go back to collecting terms/translations and adding new ones. (Yay!)

That's OK Pen!

I suppose we will have a lot to do when all the diffrent HBP have come out in all our different languages!

I know that the French one comes out the 3rd of October which means I have a bit of time left! And anyway next year I wil be a boarder student so it will only be the week-ends.

For the moment I am still waiting for the actual English book! Stupid amazon! I still haven't got it! Grrr I hope 2 weeks will be enough I mean I don't want to gollop the book down because there's only one left after =p

Just a quick note to tell you that I've finished about half the digging in books 1-5, and that I'll post it as soon as I've finished the very last couple of things. The Danish translation will be released on October the 15th, so a few months and those will be done too.

The German translation will be released on October 1st. I can't wait to start digging for all the new names/terms!

I volunteer to compile the new names and terms from HBP once the two-week ban is over, so that they can be added to the tables and are ready to be digged up when the translations all over the world are released. Woot, I can't wait! *polishes shovel in advance*

Yay, a new digger! Welcome, Khar! *hugs* It's always great to see new faces around here!

I hereby dub you an Official Immeritus Digger. You can add it to your siggy if you like. And be warned, digging can be addictive! Wink

Welcome Khar! Thanks for all the translations!

*Ugh* Paddy I just noticed the thread was my idea and I didn't even have a official digger in my siggy! *Umph*

Now, that's not right!

The French translation will also be out the october the 1st.

Agh, I'll need backup for the Romanian translation for HBP.. but I'll think of someone who has access to that book.

Khar, welcome to the digger club heh!

(Everyone in here who hasn't applied for the Immeritan Diggers Group go do so now heh. So far I see.. Ginger, Star, me, Paddy, Pen, and birdy. )

Catzy, when you go to "Groups" on the left-hand column under Modules, there is one Group called "Diggers". You can apply for membership there. You don't have to do anything, just say that you want to be on the list and they'll put you on it. I found the Digger group by coincidence some time ago, when I was added to the Official Club Members Group.

Everyone who has worked/is working/wants to help on diggs can join the group. Just follow Paddy's instructions. You should receive an email when the request has been processed, but it might take a while since Mag's still on vacation. I hear she's due back soon though.

Nor brought up a very good point in chat today about how RAB will be translated. Since we're all speculating that this might be Regulus Black, the translations may be a clue as to whether or not this theory is on track. Keep your eyes open, diggers. I can't believe we have to wait until the end of the year for most of these translations. Eep.

That will be interesting enough! I don't know when I will get the French book because it probably will be quiet expensive to maybe not strait away. However, I probably will be able to search on the net for therms so I will let you know.

I know this might be slightly off topic, but I've been trying to find the books in Arabic, but this being the US, foreign language editions are hard to come by. I was wondering if anyone knows of a reliable store online that might have at least SS in Arabic. They are on ebay, but their second-hand, and I don't get the feeling that I can entirely trust this seller. Anyway, here's hoping!
Thanks guys!

Tonks, don't know if this will be much help to you or not, but I live in the Detroit area. Dearborn (a city here) has one of the highest Arab populations outside of an actual Arabic country. Its a very good possibility that there might be a bookstore in the area that would carry these books in Arabic. Unfortunately, I can't really offer any specific places, and Dearborn isn't close enough to me to know any shops in the area, but perhaps you could search online for a bookstore in the area, and they could ship it to you.

Well, in case you missed it on the home page, our translations thesaurus is finally living in its Immeritus home. You can access it by clicking on the HP Translations Thesaurus under Site Features in the Main Menu module on the top left side of your page. The project is by no means done, nor is the version currently up accurate to the latest information posted in this thread (you'll note Finnish, Polish, and Portuguese are still not on the tables). As I said, this is still a work in progress.

So, where do we go from here? Simple. We'll still be using this thread to post new terms (and boy have we got work to do with HBP!) Updates, though, will be go to the tables now living here--how cool is that?! So, congratulations and thank you everyone on a fantabulous job! Our hard work is paying off!!! WOOT!

Thanks for letting us know, Miru and Parvati. I'll be sure to add these terms in to my next update, Parvati. To make it easier, you can pull a clean list of terms from the opening post to this thread on page one, that way you can post the translated terms without the excess "Content » Harry Potter Translations Thesaurus » .... " information. It makes it easier to read in here and also easier for me to work with when I actually pull the information from the posts to update. Thanks for your help!!

Centaur: Centaure

Aconite: Aconit

Hullo, let me try some Chinese. If you like it, I'll do more.
The translation is in both Chinese characters and pinyin (romanisation). Please tell me which one you prefer, or both.

Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone 哈利·波特与魔法石 (character) hālì·bōtè yǔ mófǎshí (pinyin)
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets 哈利·波特与密室 (character) hālì·bōtè yǔ mìshì (pinyin)
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban 哈利·波特与阿兹卡班的囚徒 (character) hālì·bōtè yǔ āzīkǎbān de qiútú (pinyin)
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire 哈利·波特与火焰酒杯 (character) hālì·bōtè yǔ huǒyànbēi (pinyin)
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix 哈利·波特与凤凰社 (character) hālì·bōtè yǔ fènghuángshè (pinyin)
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince 哈利·波特与混血王子 (character) hālì·bōtè yǔ hùnxiě wángzǐ (pinyin)

Harry Potter 哈利·波特 hālì·bōtè
Hermione Granger 赫敏·格兰杰 hèmǐn·gélánjié
Ron Weasley 罗恩·韦斯莱 luóēn·wèisīlái
Ginny Weasley 金妮·韦斯莱 jīnní·wèisīlái
Neville Longbottom 纳威·隆巴顿 nàwēi·lóngbādùn
Draco Malfoy 德拉科·马尔福 délākē·mǎěrfú
Sirius Black 小天狼星·布莱克 xiǎotiānlángxíng·bùláikè (xiǎotiānlángxíng in Chinese means "the little heavenly wolf star", equaling to Sirius the Dog Star)
Remus Lupin 莱姆斯·卢平 láimǔsī·lúpíng


And some Japanese: (sorry, don't know the romanisation）
Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone ハリー・ポッターと賢者の石
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets ハリー・ポッターと秘密の部屋
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban ハリー・ポッターとアズカバンの囚人
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire ハリー・ポッターと炎のゴブレット
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix ハリー・ポッターと不死鳥の騎士団

Harry Potter ハリー・ポッタ
Sirius Black シリウス・ブラック
Remus Lupin リーマス・ルーピン

I apply for taking over the Chinese list, if you need one, and I'm Chinese *wink* Last edited by owakoblack on Thu Aug 18, 2005 05:10 AM; edited 4 time in total

ehm, the chinese characters are ok, but the others you put behind them... How did you call them? *scrolls up* ah, pinyin, I can't see all of those... Sometimes I only see a little square. I think they aren't supposed to be there right? I dunno... should I change something in my settings so that I can see them or won't that help?
#356: Re: Confusing French, German, Dutch, Swedish, Afrikaans?..? Author: owakoblack , Location: House of Dreams Post Posted: Wed Aug 17, 2005 06:17 PM

Yes, they are pinyin--A system for transliterating Chinese ideograms into the Roman alphabet.
They are right there as I can see.
Maybe you can't see the bopomofo here (Zhuyin Fuhao), for it is not a romanization system. Such as:
ǎàěǐü

And what about it, can you see it?--
èōáǒī

If you still can see neither of them, I'd better change the bopomofo for Roman alphabet. In this case, you won't know the tones, but it's OK. For example:
Harry Potter and The Order of the Phoenix hali bote yu fenghuangshe
#357: Re: Confusing French, German, Dutch, Swedish, Afrikaans?..? Author: Lara Post Posted: Wed Aug 17, 2005 06:55 PM
    ----
ǎàěǐü

èōáǒī

That is what I see, but I dunno if your comp will automatically make the squares back to normal... In the first there are 3 squares (first, third and fifth) and in the second only one (fourth).

I think the problem with the characters can be solved by downloading the language packs for Internet Explorer or the other sort of browser you're using. I can't see the characters right now, but I'll fix my browser until it works. If it is too difficult, we can resort to screencaps of the words I guess.

Parvati, er, Andrada, I would like to ask you to start using sentences and proper capitalization in your posts. Also, since you're thinking about applying for Club Membership, keep in mind that one-line posts are regarded as spam.

Sorry about that. I don't know how to explain either. You can view this site. It explains what is Pinyin.
www.pinyin.info/

I'd prefer Chinese character rather than Pinyin. After all, Pinyin is Romanised Chinese, not what real Chinese supposed to be. Razz Last edited by owakoblack on Thu Aug 18, 2005 05:00 AM; edited 1 times in total

Thanks for the Chinese translations, owakoblack. I think both Chinese characters and romanized ones would be great, if that's not too much trouble. I can see both types fine so I know my browser's got the language pack installed, but I know that with this, as with Polish, I'm going to have to put a note up in the thesaurus letting viewers know that they'll need the proper language packs installed for their browers, possibly with a link. You don't need to worry about that, though--I'll take care of the technical issues. You worry about digging. Thanks and welcome!!!!

parvati4patil,

I am sorry, but I do not think you really understand Miru. She asked you to cut the spam, and you tell her you understand with more spam?! That type of post that you made above is something that you do via PM's, especially on a 25 page thread that has absolutely nothing to do with fanfiction.

Clean up your posts and familiarize yourself with the rules.

Now, back in topic, Pen, do you need more Spanish helpers? I bought the books for my mom in Spanish a while back, I think we could find them and look up some info for ya.

Sweeet! Yeah, some more Spanish would be great, Mag--I'm going back through the whole thread at the moment to make sure 1) I haven't missed anything, and 2) update what I already knew I hadn't gotten to yet.

As for Italian, Miru, that would be awesome as well. If they don't agree to team up with us, that's ok. I've got enough working knowledge of Italian to make my way through with you if I got my hands on the books (*makes note on books to buy list*).

Awesome!!!! Hey, Miru, your Italian's not so bad! Wink *huggles* Nice to know there are international diggers everywhere, huh? As we add new terms to our dig, and before they get put up in the thesaurus, it might be useful to link them to the first post in this thread as well. Aww, they were really cool to you too after your English post. And, dude, is 'Weasley' translated 'Pungolo'? *Squee* for Italian!

Oki doki, I provided a link to this topic too and explained stuff a bit further. Man, those people are so nice, I am really touched. *puppy eyes*

Also, I've taken a liking to writing in Italian wee. That's good, right, since I plan on studying it at Uni and stuff!? *grin* Great way to prepare.

I discovered a great discovery (of course!) while I was in Wales/England:

Ginger means Gingembre in French!

That's one more word for the translation Razz

And:

Nettle is Ortie

We will go very far with 2 words, but it's better than nothing at all!

Since Emma who used to provide Swedish translations isn't around anymore or so I've heard (read, reasoned, whatever), I can fill in the missing translations and cover HBP once it is published in Swedish, in addition to the Finnish translations. I am now a proud owner of Swedish versions of GoF and OotP, and will definitely buy the rest.

(And in case anyone's interested, yes, Swedish is my second language, English is third.)

Hello everyone
I’m from Denmark, and I would like to help with the translations. I know Michamoon has already translated many of the terms to Danish and promised to do the rest, but if I can be any help with some of them, just let me know. Also, the Danish translation of HBP has now been published, and though I don’t have it yet, I will be able to borrow it later, and would like to help with the terms from that as well.

Prokyon, thanks a lot for offering to help! I've already done some translations that I haven't posted yet, but I'd appreciate help on the rest.. I can pm you with a list of those I haven't done yet, and we can work something out?

Same here. I probably won't buy the German translation at all *gasp* because I simply don't have the money and I can borrow it from the library. It probably will take a while until I can get my hands on one of the two library copies though. Hmm. We'll see.

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!

Will be back (breaking my long pause from immeritus) with translations! Yippee!!

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 Sch
