Snape grew up in extreme poverty with his parents, Eileen and Tobias Snape, who appear to have had a bad, and possibly abusive, relationship. We get to see them very briefly in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, when Harry accidentally breaks into Snape's mind and sees some of his childhood memories. One of the memories he sees is Snape's dad yelling at Snape's "cowering" mom (USA Scholastic hardcover edition, p592). They are also mentioned in the last chapter of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, "The White Tomb," and again in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, during "The Prince's Tale" chapter.
No, she's not a Muggle. Hermonie is Muggle-born; her parents are Muggles. She can also be called a Mud-Blood.That considered a curse.
His mother Lily Evans is a muggle born witch (like Hermione Granger) and his Father James Potter is a pure blood wizard, that makes Harry a half blood wizard.
No, Severus' mom, Eileen Snape (maiden name Eileen Prince) is a pureblood witch. Severus' father, Tobias Snape, is a Muggle.
No, she was muggle-born. Her parents were both muggles but she was a witch.
It is unknown when or if Severus Snape's mother dies in the series. However, she was born in the 1930's, so it's more likely than not that Eileen Prince outlived her son.
Harry's mother is muggle born but not a muggle
well they named lily after harrys mother James after harrys father albus after harrys favourite headmaster albus dumbledore
Yes. To be pure-blood, both parents need to have been born by pure-bloods and to be muggle-born both parents need to be muggles. Neither was the case for Harry whose father was a pure-blood and mother was a muggle-born which makes him a half-blood.
In the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2005), when talking about how Lily Potter sacrificed herself for Harry Potter, Lord Voldemort mentioned Lily as "your [Harry's] filthy Muggle mother", even though Lily was not Muggle; she was Muggle-born. This is because most Muggle-haters don't tend to see any difference between Muggles and Muggle-borns, because they think a "Mudblood" is just as filthy as a Muggle, so they call Muggle-borns Muggles.
You may have misread something...
His father is a muggle and his mother is a pure blood witch. That makes him half-blood. His mothers maiden name is Eileen Snape, née Prince, combined to 'half-blood Prince'.His mother's name is Prince, and he is a Half-Blood (his father is Muggle, his mother is witch).
She was a muggle-born witch.

in the wizarding world some people judge you if your muggle-born, half-blood or pure-blood that's part of the reason why people think harrys cool hes pure-blood
No, Petunia Dursley is a muggle. Harry's mother Lily, Petunia's sister, was born from 2 muggle parents. A squib is someone who has a wizard family but actually has no powers. Harry's mother is a "mudblood".
Voldemort didn't just want to kill Muggle-borns in the second book. He had always wanted to kill them. The reason is because his father, who was a Muggle-born, left Voldemort's mother pregnant. Voldemort's mother was a witch, but after falling in love with Voldemort's father, she gave up all her powers. After that, when Voldemort realised that he was a wizard, he looked down to Muggle-borns.
Lily Potter's mother remains unnamed. She is a muggle who had two daughters named Petunia and of course Lily.
His mother was Eileen Prince, pure witch, and father was Tobias Snape, muggle.
In the Harry Potter universe, Muggles occasionally give birth to wizards and witches. J. K. Rowling equates it with, "two black-haired people producing a redheaded child. Sometimes these things just happen."
