“I wanted to become the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor here at Hogwarts.” Harry said.
“I think I could certainly do a much better job than some other Defense Against the Dark Arts professors that were allowed to teach this subject at Hogwarts.” Harry said, while the so-called headmistress Dolores Umbridge was in the background, scribbling notes and looking utterly furious.
No doubt she took offense to it and while Harry no doubt thought he’d do a much better job teaching her subject than she did, he didn’t feel like earning himself another detention for no reason. “Like professor Lockhart, for example.” Harry said, hoping it would calm Umbridge down.
Professor McGonagall took one look at Umbridge and said: “Well, I suppose I can’t argue that you’d be better than the current DADA professor, Mr. Potter, but you still have a long way to go before you-”
“HOW DARE YOU!” Dolores Umbridge screamed out so loud that her voice was heard by people many rooms away.
I love humour at Umbridge’s expense.
Do the books ever abreviate Defense Against the Dark Arts as DADA, or is that a community invention?
I tried looking it up, but all I found was this.
