Translation questions...

Recently I picked up a copy of the Hebrew translation of PS/SS. I 
figured I've read it enough times in English that trying to decipher 
it in another language I'm familiar with would be fun.

Aside from attracting a few odd looks on my subway ride to work, I'm 
having a great time with it. Whoever did the translation was very 
careful to transliterate the names appropriately, and switch the 
idioms so that Israeli kids can understand the book, rather than 
struggle to comprehend British slang translated into the modern 
incarnation of an ancient Semitic language. :-)

So, here's my question...

Has anyone else here read any non-English translations of the HP 
books? What did you think?

(Appologies if this has been discussed before, but I'm new, and 
thought this'd be a good first post...)
