I was conflicted on what to do with "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" because of how strongly Silvish literature is influenced by France (note the titles use French capitalization rules). The French translation changed the title to Harry Potter à l'école des sorciers (lit. Harry Potter at the wizard school), and the Silvish translator could easily have taken their cues from that. But given the change in French was made to appeal to children before the series became an international sensation, and the Silvish translation would have been made afterward, I chose to go with a literal translation of the original English.

The Silvish version of "Deathly Hallows" follows the French and other translations by using "Relics of Death".

There are two ways to pronounce the "r" in Vésarmencesk. So I wrote down both of them.

Hi AvisVolans! :) Vésarmencesk makes me think of Hungarian fused with Latin. Is that what you're going for?

Actually it's a mix of Latin or other romance languages and German. Some words also come from English and Gaelic.
