【原】原著|直呼他的名字：伏地魔！

“My dear Professor, surely a sensible person like yourself can call him by his name? All this 'You-Know-Who’ nonsense — for eleven years I have been trying to persuade people to call him by his proper name: Voldemort.” 

“我亲爱的教授，像您这样的明白人，总该可以直呼他的大名吧？什么神秘人不神秘人的，全都是瞎扯淡——十一年了，我一直想方设法说服大家，直呼他本人的名字：伏地魔，”

• 常用表达：call sb by the name 叫某人 ; 直呼其名；call ... by the name of 以…名称称呼；我们可以说：You can call me by my name .你可以直呼我的名字。

Professor McGonagall flinched, but Dumbledore, who was unsticking two lemon drops, seemed not to notice. “It all gets so confusing if we keep saying 'You-Know-Who.’ I have never seen any reason to be frightened of saying Voldemort’s name.”

麦格教授打了个寒噤，可邓布利多在掰两块粘在一起的雪糕，似乎没有留意。“要是我们还继续叫神秘人神秘人的，一切就都乱套了。我看直呼伏地魔的大名也没有任何理由害怕。”

• be frightened of 害怕；对…感到恐惧；例：In Britain half of women and a fifth of men are thought to be frightened of spiders, irrespective of whether they are dangerous or not。   因为在英国，有半数女人以及20%的男人都害怕蜘蛛，不管他们是否觉得蜘蛛危险与否，他们似乎天生就害怕那种活物。
