She was a muggle-born witch.
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).
Hermione Granger is probably his cleverest friend. She is a 'mudblood' a witch born of a muggle family. Her ability to work out problems was a big help to Harry throughout the many adventures.
Harry Potter's parents had magical blood. His mother was a muggle-born witch and his father was a pure-blood wizard.
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.
A witch or wizard whose ancestors have always been witches or wizards, with no muggles or squibs. Most old families do have some but they skip over them.
The Half Blood Prince in the Harry Potter book series is Professor Severus Snape. Snapes father was a muggle and his mother was a witch whose last name was Prince.
Technically she is a muggle born witch. Her parents are muggles. (:
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."
His mother was Eileen Prince, pure witch, and father was Tobias Snape, muggle.
In the Harry Potter world, a "muggle" is anybody who is not a witch or wizard, in other words, a non-magic person.
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.
