American wizards now have a completely different word for “Muggle.” JKR has introduced No-Maj” (pronounced “no madge,” as in “no magic”)

The revelation is important because that’s the name that is being used in spin-off film Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them, starring Eddie Redmayne. And it seems we’re not the only ones who were shocked by the difference. Many fans took to Twitter to express their surprise and feelings about it. Some (pretty much all of them) are NOT happy…
