Muslims: Have you read the Quran/Koran in its entirety?

It should not be translated into any other language, or so I've heard, so have you read it entirely in Arabic?

Update:

I have additional questions on it. Can any of you PM later to ask? Thank you all for replying.

    I have read the entire Quran yes. Of course it can be translated, you misunderstand. I cannot read fluently in Arabic, it is a learning process. I can speak Arabic and say my Prayers in Arabic but as for reading in Arabic a little more tricky...

    I have several copies of the Quran and many have both english and arabic in them. I have read the Quran several times and my husband is fluent in Arabic so anything I do not know how to read he is the expert!

    Yes, I have. I've read the Qur'an in Arabic.

    I have also read English interpretations.

    It is okay to interpret the Qur'an into other languages, but the original Qur'an will always be in Arabic.

    No I have not. I have read about 75% of it in an English translation. It's still beautiful.
