   • 2016 May, Aleksey Tatarinov, Ustad Dərgisi, number 4, page 107a:

     Tutaq ki, Koelyonu, Harri Potter haqda kitabları və ya Den Braunu oxumaq çətin deyil, çünki hamı oxuyur və bu barədə danışır, lakin bunları tam da ədəbiyyat saymaq olmaz.

     For example, it's not hard to read books of Coelho, or Dan Brown, or about Harry Potter, because everyone reads and talks about it, but they can't be considered literature.

   • 1990, Harri Tapper, Näin syntyvät revontulet, Gummerus, published 2003, →ISBN, page 273:

     Lappu oli papinkirja. Isä ja äiti olivat kotona lukeneet, että siihen oli kirjoitettu Harry eikä Harri. Isä oli tahtonut kastaa minut Harri Larvan kaimaksi. Harri Larva näet oli joutuva juoksija ja ja oikea hulmutukka. ’Tuuli se taivutti koivun larvan’ isä oli laulanut, kun nimeä suunnitteli. Äiti oli suostunut ehdotukseen, koska minä pienenä olin ollut ’harrikka’. Mutta kirkkoherraa ei sopinut mennä neuvomaan. Hän istui kaulukset pystyssä tammipöydän takana ja kirjoitti mitä kirjoitti.

     The piece of paper was a birth record. The father and mother had read it at home and thought it read Harry, not Harri. My father had wanted to name me Harri after Harri Larva. Harri Larva, you see, was a great runner with his flowing hair. 'Wind had bent the birch from the top', my father had sung when he thought of the name. My mother agreed, as I had been 'harrikka' as a child. But the vicar had the last word. He sat, with his straight collar, behind the oaken desk and wrote what he wrote.
