also "snogging" is so annoying!

Harry and Hermionie won't, will never, and shouldn't fall in love. Besides this isn't the right place to be saying that. Present ALL of your ideas in ONE POST.

well if they use the word "kiss" anyway why the crap would you use "snog?" I mean that doesn't even sound good.

It's a British term...HBP is a British book... work it out yourself

Well they used the word kiss in that british book. Why use two different words that mean the same thing?

They don't mean exactly the same thing, 'kiss' insinuates softness and tenderness, whilst the other is quite onomatopoeic, indicating a forcefulness.

what ? this is confusing me.

These are:
- that first years are allowed to play on the house Quidditch teams (that's when they have the tryouts for Gryffindor).
- also (Weegie pointed this out to me) on page 454, Slughorn is talking about Ron but he says the name 'Rupert' which is obviously a mistake, but it still seems like a silly mistake, which i don't think JKR would make.

There were a few more, though i can't remember them right now. But i will point them out when i do.

Well, if I'm not mistaken, I believe those first years didn't make it on the team anyways. ^^; My guess is that Harry (or JK) forgot about it.

Also, maybe JK was just giving a shout out to Rupert when she made that "mistake". 😉 Neva know.

well, The rupert thing is because in the book it stated that the fat guy (forgot name right now sorry) didnt really notice anyone with a non famous family. I think thats why jkr wrote that-on purpose

they put the word snogging and kissing in the same book because kissing is just maybe a kiss goodnight while snogging is like out of breath crazyness '-'

so sorry to spam this is my last time ever meant to put this in last post SORRY

I think the Felix Felicis idea was rubbish. Isn't Voldemort intelligent enough to make this potion and give it to his followers to drink it before going anywhere?

not necesarily... he might not be good at potions, and it does take 6 months

TheSun means that 'kissing' is about being tender and loving, and can happen between platonic friends. 'Snogging' is more what teenagers do in night clubs - Ron and Lavender behaviour really! 😄

lol

this isnt a mistake but on my book some words didnt print on page 483 uk book, what does it say after 'No', said Katie, shaking her'...???

it sez..shaking her head ruefully everyones been asking me but i havent got a clue

She freakin' made Slughorn call Ron things like "rupert and ralph" because slughorn is biased and forgetful.

Kissing can't happen between platonic friends (at least REAL kissing) Do you even know what platonic means?

yeah thats kinda like what I said...he's only forgettful about people who aren't in famous families

in the beginning chapter of GoF they say that the riddle family(tom senior, his wife, and tom jr. aka volde) were all murdered in their house. in HBP they say that toms parents seperated, and tom became and orphan. wtf? am i missing something?
