How do you pronounce Muggles?

[+randco]

I have never heard the word Muggles pronounced in any of the Harry Potter movie segments I have watched. Is the word Muggles pronounced phonetically like Mug-els or Moo-gels? I have actually heard people pronounce it both ways. Just curious, which is correct?

[+briansnat]

Never heard moo-gles. Its always been mug-gles

[+palmetto]

:-) For Geocaching, it's pronounced, ci·vil·ian (sə vil′yən)

Rhymes with juggle.

I didn't think that Moo-gles sounded correct but with all of the new words and acronyms used in todays language it wouldn't suprise me if it had been Moo-gles.

"Moo-gles?" I didn't know cows could geocache

Just another ploy to eat more Chicken.

 

muggles, like juggles but not mugglers, for some reason.

They don't .. that's why they're moo-gles

[+Quossum]

That's all right. When I was reading the Harry Potter books aloud during long car rides, long before the movies, I pronounced an important name ha-GRID. When the movies came out and it was HA-grid, there was quite a mental adjustment to make.

 

And don't remind me of when I was a kid reading the Black Stallion books and thought that the Black's horse-friend was named nap-o-LEE-on.

Well,

 

Team Orca was on the E.T. Trail a couple of weeks ago. At one cache site there were 6 range cattle just hanging out on top of GZ. We called them Moooooogles.

 

Otherwise Muggles seems to work most of the time.

[+EscapeFromFlatland]

The "s" is silent. It's pronounce moo-glay.

"Muggles" (as has been mentioned rhymes with juggles) is spoken within the very first few minutes of The Sorcerer's Stone by Professor McGonagall. It means, in HP Universe context, "Non magic-capable folk".

In Geocaching, it means "non-geocaching folk."

 

"Moogles" are fantasy creatures featured in the Final Fantasy series video games (And other related titles) by Square Enix. You can see some decent pictures/concept art/game art on the wiki page here (wikia.com). Basically it's a furry teddybear/cat creature with leathery wings, big ears, and a penchant for dancing and magic.

I like "moo-glay". You know, like "fra-gee-lay" for you Christmas story fans.

 

Otherwise, don't struggle with a muggle.

Moo-gels is my personal favorite.

"Non magic-capable folk".

In Geocaching, it means "non-geocaching folk."

 

Many moons ago it was suggested to me that those with GPS'r units had the " magic " thus were magic capable folk.

My five year old thinks her mum is a "muggler"!

[+John in Valley Forge]

It rhymes with Buggles

 

[Simmy_82]

Moo-gles are indeed a type for creature from the Final Fantasy series of games.
