Talisman, skipping by with her Stubby Boardman CD, suggests:
I believe Neville is saying "I KNOW YOU HAVE!" To wit:"I know you,
Bellatrix, have had the pleasure of meeting my parents, and by
implication, "I know what you did to them, you witch!"
Do you know, the moment I saw Neville's nose break I thought of
someone else's nose.
".. . his nose was very long and crooked, as though it had been
broken at least twice. This man's name was Albus dumbledore." (SS 8)
There have been JKR interview hints that could indicate that Neville
will end up a Professor at Hogwarts.
If Neville gets another broken nose in book 6 . . .
Talisman, now weeping openly, "Oh god, no time turners,
please. . . ."
