In summary, "fill someone in" is more specific to providing updates or summaries, often in a casual manner, while "explain" is a more general term that can be used in a variety of contexts to clarify or make something understandable.
4.
Get back at: This phrase typically implies taking action or seeking retaliation against someone who has hurt or wronged you in some way. It often suggests a desire to respond in kind or to "get even" with the person who has harmed you. "Get back at" can involve various forms of retaliation, such as responding to an insult, prank, or betrayal with a similar action.
Get revenge on: This phrase also involves seeking retribution against someone who has wronged you, but it emphasizes the act of seeking vengeance or payback. "Get revenge on" suggests a more deliberate and calculated pursuit of retaliation, often with the intention of causing harm or suffering to the other person in return for their actions.
In summary, "get back at" is more informal and implies a desire to respond to someone's actions in a similar manner, while "get revenge on" is more deliberate and emphasizes seeking vengeance or payback for a perceived wrong.
6.
In the sentence "but I don't want everybody knowing you've got a broomstick or they'll all want one," the word "or" is used to present a consequence or outcome that may result from a certain action. It suggests that if everyone knows about the broomstick, they will all want one as well.
If you were to replace "or" with "otherwise," the meaning of the sentence would change slightly:
"But I don't want everybody knowing you've got a broomstick otherwise they'll all want one."
In this revised version, "otherwise" implies a logical consequence that follows from the first part of the sentence. It suggests that the reason for not wanting everybody to know about the broomstick is because if they did know, they would all want one. So, in this case, the emphasis is on the cause-and-effect relationship between knowing about the broomstick and wanting one, rather than presenting two distinct possibilities as with "or."
14.
smother something: to prevent something from developing or being expressed
·to smother a yawn/giggle/grin
15.
Smother: To "smother" means to suppress or stifle something, often by covering it completely. It implies preventing something from being expressed or noticed, typically by suffocating it or extinguishing it. In the context of emotions like laughter, "smothering laughter" suggests making an effort to suppress or restrain laughter, possibly because it's inappropriate or because one doesn't want others to hear it.
Cover: "Cover" can also mean to conceal or hide something, but it has a broader range of meanings. It can refer to physically placing something over or in front of another thing to hide or protect it, as well as to providing protection or refuge from something. In the context of emotions like laughter, "covering laughter" might imply trying to conceal it, but it could also refer to simply muffling or softening the sound without necessarily suppressing it entirely.
In summary, while both "smother" and "cover" involve concealing or suppressing something, "smother" suggests completely suppressing or suffocating something, while "cover" has a broader range of meanings and can refer to physically hiding something or providing protection from something. In the context of laughter, "smothering laughter" implies a more deliberate and complete suppression, while "covering laughter" could encompass a variety of methods for concealing or muffling the sound.

it-> Harry's mind
18.
[transitive] bolt something (down): to eat something very quickly
20.
Set off: This phrasal verb means to begin a journey or departure from a particular place. It often implies a deliberate action of starting out or embarking on a trip. "Set off" can convey a sense of purpose or intentionality in leaving a location. For example, "Harry left the castle and set off in the dusk toward the Quidditch field" suggests that Harry consciously decided to begin his journey toward the Quidditch field.
Head off: This phrasal verb also means to depart or start a journey, but it often emphasizes the direction in which someone is going. It can imply the action of moving in a particular direction or toward a specific destination. For example, "Harry left the castle and headed off in the dusk toward the Quidditch field" suggests that Harry left with the intention of going in the direction of the Quidditch field, emphasizing the direction of his journey.
In summary, while both "set off" and "head off" involve starting a journey, "set off" emphasizes the act of beginning the journey, while "head off" often emphasizes the direction or destination of the journey.
26.
"Strain," "attempt," and "try" are all verbs that involve making an effort or exerting oneself to achieve something, but there are subtle differences in their meanings and usage:
Strain: This verb typically refers to applying great effort or pressure to achieve something, often implying a physical or mental exertion. When something is straining, it suggests that it is being stretched or pushed to its limit in an attempt to achieve a particular result. In the context of the sentence you provided ("Harry noticed that they seemed to be straining to escape the straps holding them inside the box"), "strain" suggests that the objects (presumably creatures) are exerting significant effort to break free from the straps.
Attempt: This verb means to make an effort or try to do something, often with the intention of achieving a specific goal. "Attempt" implies taking action or making an effort to accomplish something, but it doesn't necessarily imply success. It simply indicates the act of trying or making an effort. For example, "Harry attempted to open the door" means that Harry made an effort to open the door, but it doesn't indicate whether he succeeded or not.
Try: This verb is similar to "attempt" and also means to make an effort to do something. However, "try" is often used in more informal contexts and can imply a less formal or deliberate effort compared to "attempt." It is a versatile verb that can be used in a wide range of situations to indicate making an effort or attempting to achieve something. For example, "Harry tried to solve the puzzle" means that Harry made an effort to solve the puzzle.
In summary, "strain" implies exerting great effort or pressure, often suggesting a physical or mental challenge, while "attempt" and "try" both refer to making an effort or trying to achieve something, with "attempt" carrying a slightly more formal tone and "try" being more informal.
27.
pelt: [intransitive] + adv./prep. (informal) to run somewhere very fast
29.
In this context, "offhand" means to speak in a casual, relaxed, or nonchalant manner, as if the question is not particularly important or serious.
So when Harry is hoping to sound offhand, he is trying to ask the question about the Bludgers (a type of ball used in Quidditch, a fictional sport in the Harry Potter series) in a way that doesn't reveal his true concern or anxiety about the potential danger they pose. He's trying to ask the question casually, as if it's just a passing curiosity rather than something he's genuinely worried about.
offhand: not showing much interest in somebody/something in a way that is rude or upsets somebody
31.
"Weave in and out" is an idiomatic expression that means to move in a weaving or zigzagging manner, alternating between different directions or paths. In the context you provided, it suggests that the person must navigate skillfully and swiftly among the Chasers, Beaters, Bludgers, and Quaffle in order to reach a certain target (the Quaffle) before the opposing team's Seeker does.
In the sport of Quidditch, which is described in the Harry Potter series, players fly on broomsticks and move around the field in a dynamic and fast-paced manner. "Weaving in and out" implies making quick and agile movements to maneuver around obstacles or opponents, similar to how one might weave in and out of traffic while driving or dodge obstacles while running.
33.
In this context, "what with" is an idiomatic phrase that means "because of" or "due to." It is used to introduce a reason or explanation for something.
So, in the sentence "Perhaps it was because he was now so busy, what with Quidditch practice three evenings a week on top of all his homework," "what with" indicates that Harry's busy schedule, which includes Quidditch practice and homework, is the reason or explanation for why he can hardly believe that he has already been at Hogwarts for two months. It emphasizes the contributing factors that have led to his sense of surprise or disbelief.
34.
"Waft" means to pass or be carried gently through the air. It suggests a gentle movement or drifting of something, such as a scent, on air currents.
So, in the sentence "On Halloween morning they woke to the delicious smell of baking pumpkin wafting through the corridors," "wafting" indicates that the scent of baking pumpkin is gently drifting or spreading through the corridors, likely carried by air currents or drafts. It conveys a sense of the pleasant and subtle movement of the aroma as it permeates the surroundings.
Drift: This term generally refers to the gradual movement or floating of something, often due to air currents or water currents. It implies a more steady and continuous movement, and it can be used to describe the movement of various things, such as clouds, snow, or even thoughts. In the context of scent, "drift" might imply a more subtle and slow movement of the aroma through the air.
Waft: On the other hand, "waft" specifically refers to the gentle and light movement of something through the air, often with a sense of fragility or delicacy. It implies a more fleeting and delicate movement compared to "drift," and it is commonly used to describe the gentle movement of scents, aromas, or fragrances through the air. "Waft" suggests a lighter and more ephemeral quality to the movement.
So, while both "drift" and "waft" describe the movement of something through the air, "drift" implies a more steady and continuous movement, while "waft" suggests a lighter, gentler, and more delicate movement, particularly when describing the movement of scents or aromas.
35.
"Squeak" in this context is used as a verb to describe a high-pitched sound, often produced by a small creature or object. However, when it's used to describe a person's voice, it typically suggests that the voice is high-pitched or shrill, like the sound of a small animal.
In the sentence you provided, "squeaked Professor Flitwick" means that Professor Flitwick's voice was high-pitched or shrill as he spoke. It adds a descriptive element to the sentence, giving a sense of the tone or quality of his voice.
36.
"Knocked into" and "knocked" both involve physical contact with someone or something, but there are subtle differences in their meanings:
Knocked into: This phrase indicates that someone made contact with Harry by accident or unintentionally while they were hurrying past him. "Knocked into" suggests a collision or bumping into someone, often implying that the action was not deliberate.
Knocked: This term simply means that someone made contact with Harry, but it doesn't specify whether the contact was accidental or intentional. It could imply a wider range of actions, such as tapping, hitting, or bumping into him.
In the context you provided, "Someone knocked into Harry as they hurried past him" emphasizes the accidental nature of the contact, while "knocked" alone would leave the nature of the contact more open to interpretation.
38.
In this context, "stutter" is used metaphorically to describe the flickering or irregular movement of the candles' flames. It suggests that the candles are not burning steadily or smoothly, but rather flickering rapidly or irregularly, possibly due to the movement of the bats fluttering around the room.
So, when it says "making the candles in the pumpkins stutter," it means that the movement of the bats is causing the flames of the candles to flicker or tremble, creating a stuttering effect in their illumination.
40.
"Uproar" refers to a state of noisy excitement, confusion, or disorder. It often involves loud and chaotic noise, such as shouting, yelling, or general commotion.
In the context you provided, "There was an uproar" suggests that there was a sudden and intense disturbance or disruption, possibly caused by excitement, confusion, or disagreement among the people present. It indicates a situation where there is a lot of noise and activity, making it difficult to hear or maintain order.
42.
In this context, "element" refers to a situation or environment where someone feels comfortable, confident, and capable. It suggests that Percy is thriving or excelling in the particular circumstances or activities that he finds himself in.
So, when it's said that "Percy was in his element," it means that Percy is in a situation or environment that suits him well and allows him to perform at his best. He feels at ease and confident, and he may be demonstrating his skills or abilities effectively in that situation.
47.
Search me: This expression is used to indicate that the speaker doesn't know the answer to a question or is uncertain about something. It implies that the speaker is unsure and suggests that the question is difficult or beyond their knowledge. For example, if someone asks, "Where did I put my keys?" and the speaker responds with "Search me," it means they don't know where the keys are.
Beat me: This expression is also used informally, but it has a different meaning. It is typically used to express bewilderment or confusion, often in response to a surprising or unexpected situation. It implies that the speaker is puzzled or unable to understand something. For example, if someone tells a complicated story and the listener responds with "Beat me," it means they are confused or unable to follow the story.
In summary, "search me" is used to indicate uncertainty or lack of knowledge, while "beat me" is used to express confusion or bewilderment.
48.
"Foul stench" refers to a very unpleasant and offensive smell. "Foul" means extremely unpleasant or offensive, while "stench" refers to a strong and unpleasant odor. So, when Harry detects a foul stench reaching his nostrils, it means he smells something very unpleasant and offensive.
51.
Boulder: A boulder is a large rock, typically one that has been worn smooth by erosion or weathering. Here, the comparison of the creature's body to a boulder emphasizes its large and solid appearance. The simile "like a boulder" suggests that the creature's body is massive and rounded, resembling the shape and size of a large rock.
Horny: In this context, "horny" refers to having a hard, tough, or calloused texture, similar to that of horns. When describing the creature's feet as "horny," it means that its feet are thick and tough, possibly with rough or hardened skin. This term is often used to describe the texture or appearance of certain body parts, such as feet or skin, that are tough or calloused.
52.
"Waggle" means to move something back and forth or from side to side with quick, short movements. In this context, when it says "it waggled its long ears," it means that the troll moved its ears back and forth, possibly in a deliberative or uncertain manner, as if it were considering something or making a decision. The action of waggling its ears suggests a certain level of deliberation or hesitation on the part of the troll as it decides what to do next.
53.
Edge: To "edge" means to move gradually or cautiously in a particular direction, especially while trying to avoid being noticed or to maneuver through a tight space. It implies a slow and careful movement, often with a focus on precision or delicacy. When someone edges toward something, they typically move slowly and cautiously, perhaps inching forward or sidling along while being mindful of their surroundings.
Move: "Move," on the other hand, is a more general term that simply means to change one's position or location. It can encompass a wide range of movements, from small adjustments to large-scale relocations. "Move" doesn't necessarily imply caution or deliberation; it can refer to any kind of displacement or relocation, whether it's done quickly, slowly, carefully, or casually.
In summary, while both "edge" and "move" involve changing one's position or location, "edge" suggests a slow, cautious, and deliberate movement, often with a focus on precision or stealth, while "move" is a more general term that can refer to any type of movement or displacement.
55.
"Fumbling" means to handle something clumsily or awkwardly, especially due to nervousness, confusion, or lack of coordination. In the context of the sentence you provided, "fumbling in their panic" suggests that Harry and Ron are struggling to turn the key in the door lock because they are feeling panicked or anxious. They may be making mistakes or having difficulty coordinating their movements due to their state of panic.
57.
"Lumber" in this context means to move in a slow, heavy, and clumsy manner, typically with a lack of grace or agility. When describing the troll as "lumbering," it suggests that the troll is moving slowly and heavily, possibly due to its large size and weight. It implies that the troll's movements are not smooth or graceful, but rather cumbersome and awkward.
59.
"Berserk" means to be in a state of extreme, uncontrolled, and violent rage or frenzy. When someone is described as being berserk, it implies that they have lost control of their emotions and are acting in a wild, irrational, and potentially dangerous manner.
61.
In this context, "flailed" means to swing or thrash about wildly and uncontrollably. When the troll is described as "flailing its club," it suggests that the troll is swinging its club in a wild and uncontrolled manner, possibly as a result of being in pain or experiencing distress. The term "flail" implies a lack of coordination or purpose in the movements, with the actions being driven by instinct or desperation rather than deliberate intent.
63.
In this context, "sickening" is used to describe the crack sound produced when the troll's club strikes its owner's head. "Sickening" suggests that the sound is profoundly unpleasant or disturbing, possibly because it indicates a severe injury or because of the violent nature of the event. It evokes a sense of disgust or revulsion, emphasizing the severity or unpleasantness of the situation.
65.
burst + adv./prep. to go or move somewhere suddenly with great force; to come from somewhere suddenly
67.
In this context, "downright" is used to emphasize the severity or completeness of an action. When someone is described as telling a "downright lie," it means they are telling a lie that is outright, complete, or total in its falsity. It emphasizes that the lie is not subtle or partial, but rather clear and unmistakable. So, when Hermione is described as telling a downright lie to a teacher, it implies that the lie she is telling is blatant and unambiguous.
68.
In this context, "fetch" means to go and bring back something or someone. When the speaker says, "They didn't have time to come and fetch anyone," it means that they didn't have time to go and bring back anyone. It implies a need to quickly retrieve someone or something from another location.
