Um. Hullo.

Since the weather's started to change, I find it necessary to ask about what's normally done to care for the plantlife here in colder seasons? I've noticed a handful of gardens around the village -- is there a spell to seal the temperature around them? I've been growing a few things that I'd rather not lose...

If not, then this place could probably use a greenhouse before the ground gets too cold to sustain anything.

And, um. I guess that's all. Thanks.

[Pause. He could have sworn he was talking to a modern Earth-type person...]

...A type of bandage.

Oh. Right, Muggle slang. Do people from your world just not become injured easily, then?

We get injured just like any human. Nothing special; don't even have magic. Just skills. Technology. Trained doctors.

[fehsdgjkl WORDS.] You mean, things like that re-frozen-rater in the kitchen? [That's about all he has to associate "technology" with. Talking to muggles is hard. :(] What does that have to do with healing?

Yeah, like that.

We have machines that can see inside you to see whats wrong, other technology that helps people to heal, that sort of thing.

But aren't doctors also those scary blokes that cut people open and then sew them back together? [Doctors may have been the topic of a few hearthfire stories at Hogwarts.]

...I take it that's not how medicine works where you come from?

Merlin no.We just go to a proper healer and get ourselves fixed up.

--So you mean the stories are true? That is how Muggle medicine works??

Yes. We don't have healers or magic, so we have to go in on our own, sew up the problems and then let the body heal. We have drugs and stuff to help with that part, but...we can't wave a wand or drink a potion and make everything better.

...It's not as scary as it sounds.

[He shivers at the thought.] I don't think it could possibly be as scary as it sounds. It sounds like the opposite of healing to me. [Downright barbaric, when one gets into it. :|]

It isn't. Neither scary or the opposite of healing. It's just how it works when you don't have other means.
