... how do you do plural of this. no-majes? no-mays? no-maj period? I kinda only really see that work in black subculture. specifically, I could totally see that term work in a caribbean context but NY? Idk. Not American myself though, nor ever been there. Just speaking from my experience with literature and movies.
I'd have thought that some imported word would have been the best choice. Something from Yiddish or Dutch or even Sanskrit (like Bungalow or Gully)...

Beeze (Bayz or Bayze) for example wouldn't have been so bad. From the German Word Besen (Broom), for someone who cleans with a broom instead of riding it, and who can be "used", because they lack the sort of agency magical people do. It would tie in nicely with the also objectifying term "muggle".

Huh, yeah, I like that suggestion! That sounds more fun to me.
But eh, who are we, just nobodies on the internet... guess we're stuck with no-maj.
