due to its worldwide fame, "harry potter and the deathly hallows" has been translated into many languages. the first translation to be released was the ukrainian translation, on 25 september 2007 (as "гаррі поттер і смертельні реліквії" – "harry potter i smertel'ni relikviji"). the swedish title of the book was revealed by rowling as "harry potter and the relics of death" ("harry potter och dödsrelikerna"), following a pre-release question from the swedish publisher about the difficulty of translating the two words ""deathly hallows"" without having read the book. this is also the title used for the french translation ("harry potter et les reliques de la mort"), the spanish translation ("harry potter y las reliquias de la muerte"), the dutch translation ("harry potter en de relieken van de dood") and the brazilian portuguese translation ("harry potter e as relíquias da morte"). the first polish translation was released with a new title: "harry potter i insygnia śmierci" – "harry potter and the insignia of death". the hindi translation "harry potter aur maut ke tohfe" (), which means "harry potter and the gifts of death", was released by manjul publication in india on 27 june 2008. the romanian version was released on 1 december 2007 using the title ("harry potter și talismanele morții").
