Amusing thingy

grignoter (gree-nyoh-tay) verb
1. to nibble at one's food
2. to eat away at (savings, natural resources...)

Okay, so, the wizards bank in the HP books is called Grignots, is it not? So the bank's name means to eat away at your savings.

Makes you wonder what, exactly, goblins eat.

I always thought it was Gringots. But I don't have the book in front of me at present.

It's Gringotts.

I still think it would have been a cool connection.
