The most important of these challenges is undoubtedly a cultural one, as the environment of the book is decidedly English, from the very English-sounding Privet Drive, where Harry lives with his non-magical relatives, to teachers calling students by their surnames to virtually everyone having tea and crumpets in the afternoon.

Fiind vorba de imposibilitatea traducerii unor termeni tipici locali din Harry Potter in alte limbi si alte culturi, as lasa originalul englez si o explicatie in paranteza, mai degraba decat o traducere, care ar ingreuia intelegerea articolului.
De ex:
... cam toata lumea respecta ritualul ceaiului de dupa amiaza cu traditionalii crumpets" (un fel de briose englezesti).

: Dupa explicatii si imagini (http://encyclopedia.thefreedictionary.com/crumpet), crumpets sunt ceva intre mini-clatite si gofre. Greu de gasit un echivalent in lb. romana. Cred ca in acest caz merge orice reda ideea de "five o'clock tea"
