Zenobia raised her hand and smiled with the confidence that swelled inside her like a balloon.Zenobia has known why the four houses where created,Whom where the founders and WHY Slytherin's have such a bad reputation.Father made it very clear,but she had never thought about what the motto of the scool had been and why it is so very important to the foundation of Hogwarts,this was turning out to be her favorite class so far.Professor! with her hand still raised she called out.Not being able hold control any longer, she has to know if she was right. Draco means Dragon everyone knows that would therefore represent Slytherin,Dormiens as "sleeping" would then be an equivalent to Hufflepuff, the house mascot,and relating a badger, to sleeping.since Badgers are nocturnal animals meaning their sleeping while everything else is awake like a snake or an eagle.Nunquam is a tricky one,not saying this is necessarily right but by Latin study it means never,Ravenclaw's house mascot represent an Eagle which stumps me,maybe because their claws look alike? I Dunno Erm.. last but not least Titillandus means "to tickle I on a personal note compare this to Griffindor,no blame but that house likes to provoke people an tickles people while their sleeping sounds like Griffindor thing to do,if you look in the history of the Griffindor house you will find people like James Potter,Fred and George Weasley,Lee, the Marauders, etc.),on some occasions just joking to have fun, Just to say their on the "Brave"side Lions are brave also.With that Zenobia took a breath and made sure she was not being stared at she had many other connections but she felt no need to explain further.
She asked with a slight pause in her voice waiting for the approval,Am I on the right track? |
