My Deathly Hallows Analysis

I have a couple thoughts. I think that we need to remeber that JK is from Britian. In their dictionary, hallow is: hal·low (hl)
tr.v. hal·lowed, hal·low·ing, hal·lows
1. To make or set apart as holy.
2. To respect or honor greatly; revere.
I think this brings a new thought into mind. Could this be talking about some type of sacred type of right of passage Harry or others will have to pass? The ideas are flowing. A couple that I have read and thought were interesting shall follow in the next few days.

Harry Potter Book 7

The title of the seventh Harry Potter has been released!! The title is going to be Harry Potter and the.....you already knew that part......Deathly Hallows. This was our Christmas present from JK. There has been no word on when the book will be released. There are several rumors around. I tend to think that it will be released around Christmas of next year. Others think 7-7-07. I think that that is too close to the premiere of the 5th movie. Sometime in the fall is also likely. No one knows....well, maybe someone does, and they just aren't telling. Now, on to Deathly Hallows. I have a few questions:

  1. Do they say deadly in England, or do they say Deathly?
  2. Hallows....like ghosts?
  3. Why not an easier to interpret title?!?!?!?!?!
