What happens if a Muggle-born married a muggle?
If you’re not a pureblood, a muggle born, a muggle, or a squib, you’re a half blood. TL;DR: A magical child with one Muggle-born parent and one Muggle parent would be half-blood because the child has both magical and Muggle ancestry. Harry is half-blood because he has both Muggle and magical ancestry.
What happens if a Muggle-born marries a pureblood?
Pureblood + Muggle = Half-Blood (Harry Potter).
Does a half-blood and a half-blood make a pure-blood?
Half blood + muggle = half blood. Half blood + half blood = half blood. Pure blood + Half blood = half blood (though I would imagine many would call themselves pure) Pure blood + pure blood = pure blood (eg: Ron)…If two half bloods have a kid, is it a pure blood?

Do Muggle-borns have magic ancestors?
Origin of magical abilities Muggle-borns inherited magic from a distant ancestor; they were descended from Squibs who had married Muggles and whose families had lost the knowledge of their wizarding legacy. The magic resurfaced unexpectedly many generations later.
What does Muggle born mean in Harry Potter?
Muggle-born (No-Maj-born in the United States), once known as Magbobs and also known by the pejorative mudblood, are expressions referring to witches or wizards who are born to two non-magical parents. Their magical abilities do not seem to be at all affected by their Muggle parentage.
What would the child of two Muggles be like?
If the analogy is between Muggles and Jews, the closest real world analogue to the child of two Muggle-borns would be the child of ethnic Jews whose families converted to Christianity. In Nazi (and Death-Eater) propaganda, this makes no difference.
What makes someone a Mudblood in Harry Potter?
Given that Ron defines a Mudblood as someone with non-magic parents, the implication would be that non-magic grand parents do not make someone a Mudblood. On the other hand, the underlying idea of blood-status is that some people diluted their pure wizard blood with Muggle blood.
Are Muggle-borns more likely to produce squibs?
It was a widely held belief in the wizarding world that Muggle-borns were more likely to produce Squib children and slower to show signs of magic in childhood than pure or half-blood wizards.
