Can muggle born witches be squibs?

Question

See above.

Because, I was wondering if they could still be able to see Hogwarts in the novels but not have any magic.

Answer 1

No; a Muggle-born witch can't by definition, be a Squib.

A Muggle-born (like Hermione) is a witch or wizard born to Muggle parents. A Squib (like Filch) is a non-magic person born to at least one magical parent. On J.K. Rowling's official web site, she had the following to say about Squibs (see the "Extras" section, then the "miscellaneous" tab):

"I have been asked all sorts of questions about Squibs since I first introduced the concept in 'Chamber of Secrets'. A Squib is almost the opposite of a Muggle-born wizard: he or she is a non-magical person born to at least one magical parent. Squibs are rare; magic is a dominant and resilient gene."

Yes; I think that Squibs probably can see Hogwarts. Although they can't attend it, because they'd have at least one magical parent, they'd be exposed to, if not immersed in the wizarding community. Even Muggles (such as Hermione's parents) can see magical places, such as the Leaky Cauldron if it is pointed out to them. Plus, Squibs like Filch and Mrs. Figg, have assistance functioning within the wizarding world because they have access to various magical objects and creatures. Filch has Mrs. Norris, and Mrs. Figg has her cross-bred cats and Kneazles. Also, according to J.K. Rowling: "while a Squib cannot cast spells, he or she can apparently see magical beings such as poltergeists, though not dementors."

Answer 2

No because a squib has NO MAGIC.

A Squib is a person of wizarding heritage who lacks magical ability; as Ron Weasley explains, Squibs are, in essence, the opposite of Muggle-born wizards. A Squib is a very rare anomaly; the only known Squibs so far introduced in the series are the Hogwarts caretaker, Argus Filch; Arabella Figg, a neighbour of the Dursleys; and Sirius Black's great-uncle, Marius Black, who was removed from the Black family tree because he was a Squib. Squibs share much in common with Muggles; unlike Muggles, however, they notice and comprehend the wizarding world. Things that are hidden from Muggles with spells (rather than by the very nature of the hidden thing) seem to be visible to Squibs, as evidenced by Argus Filch being able to work at Hogwarts, which appears only as dangerous old ruins to Muggles (this may be because such illusions do not work on those who know of their existence; Mr and Mrs Granger, both Muggles, were obviously able to enter the Leaky Cauldron, which is normally invisible to non-wizards, under their daughter Hermione's direction, as they were present in Diagon Alley in the second book). This allows them the choice to inhabit the wizarding world or the Muggle world. Many live an unfortunate life, however, as they are never truly able to find acceptance in the world that reared them, but cannot find true contentment in the world they are more suited to inhabit. Some (like Arabella Figg) prefer to function on the border of the magical and non-magical worlds. Squibs like Arabella Figg often appear as strange or "crazy" to the Muggles around them. Harry finds Arabella's relationships with her cats odd when she takes care of him on occasion, but it seems perfectly normal when it is revealed that she grew up in the wizarding world. The Ministry of Magic does not keep records of Squib births, a sign of wizard society's general disregard for them.

Answer 3

muggleborns do no longer inevitably have magical bloodlines. So would someplace of their history yet no longer all. If a squib has a baby, and that they become a wizard or witch, they may be considered halfblood reguardless of climate or no longer the 2d discern replaced right into a wizard or muggle. they're halfblood because of the fact they have traceable wizarding history. If a squib had a baby that replaced right into a muggle, and then the muggle had a baby and it grew to become out to be a wizard or witch, it would nonetheless be halfblood or much less, yet no longer muggleborn.

Answer 4

yes muggle born witches are squibs because they no magic and that's what squibs are and i do not know if they do or do not but Hermione does so that is weird

Answer 5

Of course, a muggle born to Witches will still be able to learn the Craft

Answer 6

no i don't think so, i think the definition of a squib is someone from a witch family who loses his wizardry powers. the opposite (person from a muggle family who gets wizardry power) is called something else, mudblood as an insult, but the real name i forget.

Answer 7

ron says at some point that squibs are persons who were born in magic families so i guess no..
