      Dog-Latin, whatever, you're riffing on stuff all the bored posh white kids were forced to learn in school It doesn't cost that much effort to make it more correct, and there will be people who will be pleased by you doing so -- but sure, you don't have to, it's just a book

      But it's the careless and sloppy appropriation from other cultures that looks really bad I mean, look, this is *actual misinformation* that has spread like wildfire all over the Internet -- it's actively *impeding* people learning about real-life Sikidy who want to learn

      Like, if she'd just put the word in her book because it sounded cool, and then in interviews owned up to it and said "I didn't know what it meant, I put it in my book because it sounded cool", that'd be one thing But she LIED Not in the book, in real life, she lied to people

      She said that bullshit about borrowing from "the West African dialect of Sidiki a word that means 'friendly to thieves'" in a court case, in the specific context of proving how much research she'd done in order to shore up her IP rights to the Harry Potter universe

      It was a shitty thing to do It was a *minor* shitty thing to do, but it makes her look bad, and it very much ties in to her cavalier treatment of facts throughout the history of the Harry Potter franchise and in her attempts at being a Twitter public intellectual

      Again, I have to point out how much of a slap in the face it is when something like Harry Potter takes over the Google search results for a real thing from your own culture

      Bulgarian here. Victor Krum is not how Bulgarian names work. And it's likely to be the only exposure to even the idea of Bulgaria for literally millions of people. It's such casual, careless racism.

          He's mentioned as being there but IIRC he never actually says anything on the page.
