Hey friends! Today I’d like to talk to you about reading Harry Potter books in different languages. So far, I’ve read all seven Harry Potter novels in three languages: first in Russian, then in English, and now in Polish, and I want to share with you my thoughts, and some interesting translation moments that I found while reading each version. Also I try to explain why on earth I decided to read the same Harry Potter books again and again in several languages.

P.S. I apologize for reading from a script. As some of you already know my story, I can read, write and understand but I still struggle to put my thoughts into words even in my own language – Russian. :)
Here is my story:
