There's a lot that muggles can't possibly understand in Harry Potter's wizarding world. These memes point out some of the things that confuse muggles.
在魔法世界中有很多事情觸及麻瓜的知識盲區，有些memes就可以體現很多。
Harry Potter took the world by storm, but there are still many people who are yet to watch or read the franchise. Every fan knows that muggles have no knowledge of the Wizarding World and are totally oblivious, but they are able to have magical children, like Hermione's parents.
哈利波特風靡全球，但是仍然有很多人沒有看過或閱讀過相關作品。看過的哈迷們都知道麻瓜對於巫師世界有時是一無所知的，但他們仍然有可能擁有會魔法的孩子，比如赫敏的父母。
So, for those without magic, the Wizarding World is a wee bit confusing. People who have not experienced Harry Potter, are also muggles in a way, as they are yet to experience, and are unaware of the magic that awaits them. These memes are a hilarious nod to this obliviousness.
所以，對於那些沒有魔法的人來說，巫師世界還是有點令人迷惑。那些沒有經歷過哈利波特世紀的人們，某種層面也是麻瓜，因為他們未曾經歷，也不知曉在前面等待著他們的魔法。這些memes就是對這種不知的滑稽點頭。
The Hogwarts Grading System
霍格沃茨評級體系
Anyone who isn't aware of the Hogwarts grading system would be confused by this text post. This includes parents who are probably seeing their child's report card for the first time with the magical grading system. Of course, there could always be a key on the page to signify the meaning of the letters, but on the off chance there isn't, an "A" is one of the highest marks besides A+ in the muggle world.
不懂霍格沃茲評級體系的人可能會對這個成績單有許多的問號，其中包括了除此見到這種成績單的父母們。當然，這種成績單上或許能有一個按鍵開啟文字釋義，但也有可能沒有。A可是麻瓜世界僅次於A+的優秀成績了！
However, an "A" in this instance means "Acceptable," which is the lowest passing grade in the Wizarding World.
然而，這裡的「A」其實意味著「可以接受」，這是巫師世界裡最低的及格分。
Quidditch
魁地奇
Quidditch is one of the biggest sports in the Wizarding World. In Hogwarts, the Houses have their own teams and play against each other. But it's much bigger than Hogwarts. In Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire, the Quidditch World Cup, which is held every four years, is introduced up close and personal.
魁地奇是巫師世界最大的運動活動之一。在霍格沃茨，每個學院都有自己的球隊，互相競爭。但它可不只在霍格沃茲有，在《哈利·波特與火焰杯》中四年一次的魁地奇世界盃就以十分個人化的視角被呈現。
It's magical, energetic, enthusiastic, and exhilarating. In the muggle world, there are similar events such as the Olympics and the Fifa World Cup, but as Hogwarts castle points out, nothing is better than a game of Quidditch.
它充滿魔力，充滿活力，熱情洋溢，振奮人心。在麻瓜的世界裡，也有類似的比賽，什麼奧林匹克運動會、國際足聯世界盃，但正如霍格沃茨宣揚的，沒有什麼比魁地奇比賽更好了。
You-Know-Who
神秘人
Names have great power in the Wizarding World. When "He Who Must Not Be Named" came to power, the wizarding community was terrified of what he could do. In the final book, anyone who used his name could be traced.
名字在巫師世界是有巨大力量的，當神秘人東山再起時，整個巫師社會都很忌憚他的所為。在最後一部書中寫道，任何一個用了他名字的人都會被追蹤。
The name "Voldemort" comes from French origins, meaning "flight of death" and he gave it to himself, having loathed his given name. He is known by his followers as "The Dark Lord." Voldemort dominated the Wizarding World, and as harry potter memes shows, no one should dare speak his name.
「伏地魔」一次來源於法語，意為「死亡的飛翔」。他因為嫌棄自己本來的名字所以給自己改了這個名。他被他的追隨者們稱為「黑魔王」，伏地魔掌管著巫師世界，正如這個memes顯示，沒有人敢說出他的名字。
Harry's "Death"
哈利之死
Harry needed to die to kill the Horcrux inside of him, in order to kill Voldemort. Had Harry not died, Voldemort would still have a tether, meaning Harry would never be able to defeat him. After Harry "died," he had the choice to pass on or go back to the land of the living. He chose to return and fulfill his destiny, as shown in this meme by the.maraudersmemes.
為了除去體內的魂器以殺死伏地魔，哈利必須死。如果哈利不死，伏地魔就仍然有一根稻草繩，哈利就無法擊敗他。哈利「死」後，他可以選擇駕鶴西去也可以回到生界。他選擇了回歸完成自身的使命，這就是「the.maraudersmemes」的這個meme 所顯示的場景。
For those who aren't familiar with Horcruxes and the concept of the splitting of one's soul, Harry's death doesn't make much sense, but it was a vital part of the series and set up from the very beginning.
不熟悉魂器和分裂靈魂概念的人，可能不大能理解哈利之死的意義，然而在整個哈利波特系列中哈利的死亡從一開始就是故事的關鍵一筆。
Hogwarts Education
霍格沃茲教育
Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is an esteemed place of education, but do they learn any muggle fundamentals? There is, of course, Muggle Studies as a subject, but is basic math and the like taught?
霍格沃茲是巫師們的教育聖殿，但是他們是否會有麻瓜基礎教育？哦對，當然，有一門麻瓜研究，但是像基礎數學之類的是否會教呢？
This might seem a valid question to be asking as a muggle. The likelihood is that they learn basic math and language skills before going to Hogwarts. Then the English, math, and science of the Wizarding World are most likely taught during their education, while also learning about their economics and Ministry.
這是麻瓜非常可能有的疑問。非常可能的是他們在去霍格沃茲之前就學習了基礎數學和語言，然後再巫師世界接受教育時又學學英語、數學、科學，同時了解經濟政治。
Hagrid's Nonchalance
海格的無所謂
In the muggle world, guns are deadly and threatening weapons. Vernon Dudley possesses one in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone and uses it for protection against Hagrid. Hagrid, however, is a half-giant who has a magical umbrella.
在麻瓜世界中，槍枝是有致命威脅的武器。弗農·達思禮在《哈利波特與魔法石》中就擁有一支並且用它來對抗海格。可是誰能想到海格是有魔法雨傘的半巨人。
In the Wizarding World, wands are used for almost everything magical. They don't use guns for duels, they use wands. Hagrid doesn't have to use magic against Vernon though, he simply uses his strength to bend the rifle and make the firearm a useless piece of scrap metal. His nonchalance is highlighted in this meme by harrypottermemes.
在巫師世界，魔杖無所不能。他們決鬥，不用槍枝用魔杖。儘管如此。海格也不需要用魔法來對抗弗農，他用他的力量把槍折彎，把它變成無用的金屬碎片。他的無所謂在這個meme中被突出表現了出來。
