This is a bit late, but I was very busy and I don't have the book
with me because I lent it to a friend. After all this talk about the
joke, I had to find out how it was translated and went to check it in
the bookstore. I was a bit dissapointed. It's not translated at all.
I guess that's why I didn't remember it.
In the Slovene translation:
,,Uuu, Lavender, a pokazhes tvojega Uranchka she meni?'' jo je
vprashal Ron.
Uuuh, Lavender, would you show me your little Uranus, too? asked Ron.
The little Uranus does not have any additional meaning. Ah, well.
Humour is probably one of the hardest things to translate, but the
translator could have shown some more imagination, he has shown it
elsewhere.
