dobbling

Dobbling is a term used in the Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling to describe a magical phenomenon where a person appears to double, creating the illusion of two identical figures. This effect is often associated with the magical community and is sometimes used to confuse or mislead others. Dobbling is not a common occurrence and is generally considered a rare and mysterious event. It is believed to be caused by a complex interplay of magical forces, although the exact mechanism remains unclear. In the series, dobbling is most notably associated with the character Dobby, a house-elf who can dobble himself to create the appearance of multiple Dobbys. The phenomenon is a key element in the magical world of Harry Potter, adding to the series' rich tapestry of magical lore and intrigue.
