Once again, J.K. Rowling is our hero, this time confirming a theory about her iconic series Harry Potter, more specifically, a theory about Hermione's name.
A fan tweeted out a short theory about the scene in Goblet of Fire where Victor Krum tries to pronounce Hermione's name and fails, saying "Her-my-own." Hemione then teaches him the proper pronunciation, "Her-my-oh-nee." The fan thought it was J.K. Rowling's way of teaching us all how to say it, in a subtle manner of course, and it turns out the fan was right. Kudos to you for figuring that out!
Theory correct. https://t.co/Q46h56ljuU

Rowling is always looking out for us, isn't she? It's the little things, really. It's no surprise we needed help because I don't know about you, but the spellings and names in the book were trying on my little fourth grade brain at the time. Having it sounded out for you makes it so much easier. Though now it probably doesn't matter, as the HP series is so big, you'd probably have to live under a rock if you don't know how to say Quidditch or Expecto Patronum. But, maybe that's just us.
