"Crucis" means "pain অথবা torture," and "hor" is a shortened form of the noun "horreum," which means "storehouse." Thus, "tormenting storehouse." A Horcrux is effectively a "storehouse" for the part of the soul that an individual destroys when killing someone. "Hor" can also remind readers of the words "horrible" and "horrid." The English meaning for "crux" is "the critical feature অথবা essence," like the crux of an argument. Similar to the Latin translation, it then becomes understood as "essence storehouse." Many consider the soul to be the essence of an individual. A "crux" is also defined as a "difficult puzzle," so Horcruxes can then be seen as "horrible" অথবা "tormenting puzzles." In Egyptian mythology, Horus was the son of the god Osiris, who became the God of the Dead. Crux is also Latin for "cross." If আপনি combine these two words, আপনি get the "cross of Horus," also known as the "ankh" (a ক্রুশ with a loop at the top). The ankh was the symbol of life. Thus, a Horcrux would ensure life.

My opinion of the শীর্ষ inspirational উদ্ধৃতি for the Harry Potter Series. মতামত on anything I missed!

-It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live

-There are all kinds of courage. It takes a great deal of courage to stand up to our enemies, but a great deal আরো to stand up to our friends

-Do not pity the dead, Harry. Pity the living, and, above all, those who live without love.

-If আপনি want to know what a man's like take a look at how he treats his inferiors not his equals

-It is out choices that প্রদর্শনী who we truly are, far আরো than our abilities.

-Happiness can be found even in the darkest...

HOGWARTS STAFF
Headmaster Albus Dumbledore: His first name is from the Latin word alba, "white." His last name, according to Rowling interviews, is Old English for "bumblebee." In colour symbolism, white often stands for purity, so the headmaster's name suggests honour and a hard-working nature ("busy as a bee").
Professor Binns: A bin is a large storage container. A dustbin is British English for a garbage can. This boring professor could be described as a ghostly storage for information that many Hogwarts students view as rubbish.
Headmaster Armando Dippet: Armando is from the name Armand,...

To start I would like to say that I am not posting this to be mean অথবা start any fights. I'm posting this because a lot of people ask me why I don't like her অথবা simply assume it's only because I like Bellatrix, and I want to clear this up. Plus I'd rather just post a link to this প্রবন্ধ rather than explain it every time someone asks.

Anyways, the first and biggest problem I have with Molly is (yes the obvious one lol, I'll get it out of the way first) that she killed Bellatrix. I do respect her motives, her kid's life was on the line. But I still don't like it. I also don't like how she called...

Okay, I seriously wasn't going to go here but I feel the need to express my opinion a little further. So I have heard some of আপনি say " The Harry Potter series will be re-made to keep up with time, অথবা keep the legend alive". That is fine that আপনি have that opinion, but I only have one অথবা two questions. আপনি don't think the movie series will live on as a classic. Its the শীর্ষ earning movie series in the world, not counting inflation. It has the best British cast in the world. Besides I think Hollywood avoids remakes if they can unless they are trying to make quick money. And if they do remake...

WARNING Total spoilers for lastest film. DO NOT READ IF আপনি HAVEN'T SEEN IT!!!

I just saw Half-Blood Prince and entertainment wise it's proberly the best so far - so go see it! It has one of the funniest HP scenes ever (Harry taking Felix potion).
BUT it was also the worst in terms of missing information and missing scenes. I'm holding out for DH though as i figured that they purposely missed out stuff in order to bulk up those two films. So here is my তালিকা of things that truly annoyed me about the film.

1. This one actually counts in at least the last 3 films. Dumbledore just isn't Dumbledore!...

There is a theory, particularly জনপ্রিয় amongst Snape and Snily fans, that Snape was truly Harry's biological father instead of James Potter. There are two main variants of this theory. The first is that Lily had a long term affair with Snape, possibly from when they were all in their final বছর at Hogwarts together. The সেকেন্ড is that Lily had a one-night-stand with Snape after arguing with James, which she immediately regretted but which led to Harry's existence.

The first issue with this theory is how strongly Harry resembles James. The only difference in their physical appearance is their...

দ্বারা now I feel like most people know about and have formed opinions on Delphi and the details surrounding her birth. I know I definitely have and I thought I'd share them.

I'll just put it right out there; hell yeah I'm glad it happened! I know that there are a lot of people who hated the fact that Bellatrix had a kid--and believe me I do understand why, I'll get to that in a bit. But I personally was really excited. I saw the leaked script back in June (or so) and I hoped quite feverishly that it wasn't a hoax. Because the Lord knows that I'm happy that Bellatrix's legacy will live on through...
