I read the first Harry Potter book in Swedish. Here’s all the words I was able to learn, either by context clues, or by remembering what the exact phrase in the original book was (so cool when that happened). Maybe you will recognize the scenes and the reason for these words, too:
bläck — ink
mantel — robe
jättelik — giantlike
pergamentpapper — parchment paper
strimming — striped
besynnerligt — weird
kittel — cauldron
begåvad — talented
stöna — groan
klandra — blame
spetsen — point
tenn — tin
stjärnkikare — telescope
trollstav — wand — except there’s two words. Trollstav if it’s a wand for a boy, and trollspö if it’s a wand for a girl. I think.
enhörning — unicorn
disken — the counter
granska — inspect
fräste — snapped
handled — wrist
hök — hawk
svimma — faint
kvastkäpp — broomstick
stolpar — posts (like poles, not like blog posts)
gristryne — pigsnout
kalkon — turkey
flämta — gasp
stamning — stammer
genväg — short-cut
svartalfar — goblins
fläddermus — bat
bägare — goblet
kravla — crawl
