Accio (Summoning Charm)
Description: This charm summons an object to the caster, potentially over a significant distance. It can be used in two ways: by casting the charm, and then naming the object desired ("Accio Firebolt"), or by pointing the wand at the desired object during or immediately following the incantation to "pull" it toward the user. In either case, the caster must concentrate upon the object they wish to summon in order for the charm to succeed. The caster doesn't necessarily need to know the location if they say the name of the object to be summoned. This is proven when Hermione Granger explains in 1997 that she summoned the Horcrux books from Dumbledore's office by merely saying "Accio Horcrux books!" while in Gryffindor Tower.
Seen/Mentioned: Harry Potter summoned his broom to complete the first task of the Triwizard Tournament in 1994, as well as to summon the Portkey to escape Lord Voldemort and the Death Eaters in the Little Hangleton Graveyard in 1995. It failed to summon Horcruxes in 1997, and Harry failed to summon a falling Rubeus Hagrid. It was also used as a quicker way to find objects in Hermione's depth-enlarged beaded handbag, and was used as a quick and effective way of fishing ("Accio salmon").

Harry used it twice in 1997: Once in an attempt to give Dumbledore a drink in the Horcrux cave, and again to douse Hagrid's hut after it was set on fire by Thorfinn Rowle using the spell Incendio.
Etymology: Possibly an extension of Spanish words agua(aqua) ("water") and mente ("mind").

Etymology: Ascendare is a Latin verb meaning 'to climb' or 'to ascend'.
(Albus Dumbledore's spell)
Description:This spell was told to be very very powerful since when Dumbledore casts this spell, Voldemort can't bear the power of it so he conjures a silver shield to deflect it. When the spell hits the shield, 'a deep, gong-like note reverberated from it-an oddly chilling sound'.
Seen/Mentioned: This spell was seen once used by Dumbledore in the Ministry of Magic, during the Battle of the Department of Mysteries on 17 June, 1996, while he duels with Voldemort.
Alohomora
Alohamora used by Hermione in 1991.
Pronunciation: al-lu-ha-MOR-ah or aluh-huh-MORA (video games)

Seen/Mentioned: Used by Hermione Granger in 1991 on the forbidden Third Floor Corridor door at Hogwarts.
Etymology: Alohomora is derived from the West African Sidiki dialect used in geomancy meaning: Friendly to thieves as stated by J.K. Rowling in testimony during the WB and JKR vs. RDR Books. [1]
Notes: In the books, when Alohomora is used, the lock/door must be tapped three times.

Description: Clears the target's airway, if blocked.
Seen/Mentioned: Professor Slughorn cast this on Marcus Belby when he choked in 1996.

Description: Anteoculatia is a hex that turns a person's hair into antlers.
Seen/Mentioned: It can be bought at Wiseacre's Wizarding Equipment in Diagon Alley in Lego Harry Potter: Years 1-4.

Pronunciation:Unknown
Description: Causes severe internal injury; potentially lethal. The exact effects are unknown, but because of its danger, it is probably a Dark curse.
Seen/Mentioned: Used by Death Eater Antonin Dolohov during the Battle of the Department of Mysteries. He severely injured Hermione Granger with this curse; she was incapacitated instantly and had to take ten potions every day for some time in order to recover.
Notes: This curse is less effective when used nonverbally, but it still causes significant harm, at least when used by an accomplished caster. Also, Hermione had the added benefit of a hastily cast Shield Charm by Harry Potter which may have also lessened the damage caused.(could be the incantation "axelo")
Aparecium
Pronunciation: AH-par-EE-see-um
Description: This spell makes invisible ink, and perhaps invisible items in general, appear.
Seen/Mentioned: First used in 1993, when Hermione Granger tried to make any hidden writing appear in Tom Riddle's Diary.

Arania Exumai
Pronunciation: ah-rahn-ee-a eks-su-may
Description: The Spider-killing Curse is a spell used to kill or, at least, blast back Acromantulas or other large spider species.
Seen/Mentioned: Harry uses this in the Forbidden Forest against the attacking Acromantulas in the film version of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. He learned this from Tom Marvolo Riddle, who attempted to use it against Aragog in the memory Harry visits.
Etymology: From the Latin aranea, meaning “spider”, and exuo, meaning “I lay aside”.
Aresto Momentum
Pronunciation: ah-REST-oh mo-MEN-tum
Description: Used to slow down an object or being that is moving.
Seen/Mentioned: Used by Dumbledore to save Harry Potter from a fall in the film version of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban.
Etymology: Likely the combination of two words; the Anglo-French arester, meaning "To bring to a stop", and the Latin Momentum, meaning "The force or strength gained whilst moving." Literal translation: "Bring its momentum to a stop."
(Armour-bewitching spell)
Description: Causes suits of armour to sing carols.

Avada Kedavra (Killing Curse)
Pronunciation: ah-VAH-dah keh-DAV-rah (IPA: /ə.'væ.də kə.'dæv.ɹə/)
Description: Causes a bright green flash and a rushing noise; the curse causes instant death to the victim. There is no known counter-curse or blocking spell (with the exception of the curse striking another spell midflight, negating both), although the caster can be interrupted, the victim can dodge the green jet, hide behind solid objects (which burst into flame when hit by it), or, if the casting wizard is not sufficiently competent, the curse may be completely ineffective as described by Barty Crouch Jr. (acting as Alastor Moody) in Goblet of Fire. Harry twice countered this spell by casting Expelliarmus. It is one of the three Unforgivable Curses; the use of this spell on another human being gives you a one-way ticket to Azkaban.
The magical conditions have also been documented to defeat the curse, even on a direct hit:
• Harry Potter was given magical protection against Lord Voldemort's use of the curse, when his mother sacrificed herself to save him.
• Harry is the only person in the history of the magical world to have ever survived a direct hit to the killing curse.
• Harry is saved by the twin cores effect between his wand and Voldemort's during a duel, as well as during a battle. During this battle, Harry's phoenix feather wand snaps the wand Voldemort borrowed from one of his servants, Lucius Malfoy. The reason for this is unknown. Dumbledore believes this feat to be due to the unique connections and relationships between the two duellists, which are complex and are "realms of magic hitherto unknown".
• In Deathly Hallows, Harry is saved twice. The 1st time because when Voldemort tried to kill Harry as a baby, a piece of Voldemort's soul flaked off and was trapped within Harry himself (giving Harry a connection to, and many of the powers of, Voldemort). When the killing curse hit Harry in the Forbidden Forest, it killed the piece of Voldemort's soul trapped in Harry, and sent Harry to a nether region where Voldemort's use of Harry's blood gave Harry a lifeline back to the world of the living, should he choose to use it, and he decided to return to life. The second time, Harry was able to deflect the curse back at Voldemort (who died from it) because of a special condition involving the Elder Wand. This had been 'won' by Draco when he disarmed Dumbledore of his wand, but none understood this at the time, and Draco did not use the Elder Wand. Harry had won Draco's wand in a life-or-death duel, thereby proving to the Elder Wand that Harry should be the wand's true master. Therefore, when Harry used Draco's wand to cast Expelliarmus against Voldemort's Killing Curse, the killing curse rebounded on Voldemort leaving Harry unharmed and killing Voldemort once and for all.

Seen/Mentioned: First said (not by name) at the beginning of the first book when Harry arrives at the Dursley's home. First seen in The Philosopher's Stone, during the flashback while Hagrid described Harry's parent's deaths, Voldemort is seen killing Lily Evans. Next in Goblet of Fire against Muggle Frank Bryce, and in every book following. It is noted that while Harry has used every other Unforgivable Curse successfully he has never used the Killing Curse.
Suggested Etymology: During an audience interview at the Edinburgh Book Festival (15 April 2004) Rowling said: "Does anyone know where avada kedavra came from? It is an ancient spell in Aramaic, and it is the original of abracadabra, which means 'let the thing be destroyed.' Originally, it was used to cure illness and the 'thing' was the illness, but I decided to make it the 'thing' as in the person standing in front of me. I take a lot of liberties with things like that. I twist them round and make them mine."[3]
Avifors
Pronunciation: Avy -fors
Description: Turns inanimate objects into birds.
Seen/mentioned: The Harry potter video games.
Etymology: From Latin "Avis" meaning "bird" and Latin "fors" meaning "for luck"
Avis
Pronunciation: AY-vis

Seen/Mentioned: Used in 1994 by Mr. Ollivander to test Viktor Krum's wand. Also employed by Hermione in 1996, along with Oppugno against Ron Weasley.
Etymology: The Latin avis means "bird".
B
(Babbling Curse)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: The Babbling Curse is not fully understood but it is presumed to cause a person to babble whenever they try to speak.
Seen/Mentioned: According to Gilderoy Lockhart, he once cured a Transylvanian villager of this affliction, but as he proved an untrustworthy source of information, it is possible the curse does not exist at all. However, the curse itself may exist, but it could be that someone else cured the said villager.
(Bat-Bogey Hex)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Grotesquely enlarges the target's bogies, gives them wings, and sets them attacking the target.
Seen/Mentioned: Ginny Weasley is a noted practitioner of this hex, and used it on Draco Malfoy to facilitate her, Ron, Luna and Neville’s escape from the Inquisitorial Squad in 1996, and later on Zacharias Smith when he persistently questioned her about what happened during the Battle of the Department of Mysteries.
Notes: This may also be the "Curse of the Bogies" mentioned by Ron in 1991 as a potential punishment should either Hermione or Neville get him and Harry in trouble. However, "bogey" can also mean a monster or a spectre, to which said curse might be referring.
Baubillious
Pronunciation:' baw-BILL-ee-us
Description: Unknown. Creates a bright bolt of white light from the tip of the wand.
Seen/Mentioned: Only in the Harry Potter TCG.
Etymology: From the English, bauble? Etymology unclear.
Notes: Judging by the incantation it is possibly the spell used by Filius Flitwick to decorate the Hogwarts Christmas Tree.
(Bedazzling Hex)
Pronunciation:Unknown
Description: Similar to a Disillusionment Charm, it can be used to conceal a person or an object.
Seen/Mentioned: By Xenophilius Lovegood in 1998 when describing how the Cloak of Invisibility is the only thing that can make a person truly invisible, not requiring a Disillusionment Charm or a Bedazzling Hex.
Notes: Is used to make invisiblity cloaks, although those cloaks aren't true cloaks of invisibility. It is not sure what the difference is between a disillusionment charm and a bedazzling hex. A disillusionment charm, would appear to simply make the target blend in very well with the surroundings whereas the bedazzling hex, given its name might possible mess directly with the eyes of anyone looking at the cloak wearer, so they would not appear to be there. Both the word bedazzling (bedazzle means cleverly outwit.) and the hex part of the name suggest this.
(Bellatrix Lestrange's spell)
Description: Produces a burst of blue light and causes windows to shatter.
Seen/Mentioned: Was used by Bellatrix Lestrange to shatter the windows in the Great Hall in her insane celebratory outburst after the death of Albus Dumbledore in 1997.
(Blasting Charm)
Pronounciation:Unknown
Description:The Blasting Charm is a spell which presumably creates an explosion. It may be a safer, less destructive version of the Blasting Curse.

(Bluebell Flames)
Description: Creates a quantity of blue flame which can be directed to a specific place such as into a glass jar.
Seen/Mentioned: Hermione cast a bluebell flame that could be carried around in a jam jar, sent out a short distance, then retrieved into the jar; she used it to set Snape's robes on fire during the first Quidditch match of her first year. Hermione also used this spell against Devil's Snare when working through the challenges surrounding the Philosopher's Stone.
Notes: Bluebell flames are waterproof and only heat/burn the intended target.
Bombarda

Pronunciation: bom-bar-dah
Description: Causes a small explosion.
Seen/Mentioned: Hermione used this spell to free Sirius Black from his cage in the film version of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. A stronger version of this spell, Bombarda Maxima, is performed by Dolores Umbridge to force her way into the Room of Requirement in the film version of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.
Notes: Both the regular and Maxima versions of this spell only appear in the films.
Brackium Emendo
Pronunciation: br-ah-kee-um e-men-do
Description: If used correctly, Gilderoy Lockhart claims it will heal a broken bone.
Seen/Mentioned: Used unsuccessfully by Gilderoy Lockhart on Harry Potter in the film version of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (instead of healing the bone it vanished all the bones in Harry's arm, leaving it not unlike rubber).
Etymology: From the Latin “bracchium”, meaning “forearm”, and “emendo”, meaning “I improve”.
(Bubble-Head Charm)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Puts a large bubble of air around the head of the user. Used as a magical equivalent of a breathing set.
Seen/Mentioned: Cedric Diggory and Fleur Delacour used this underwater in the second task of the Triwizard Tournament in 1995. It was also used by many Hogwarts students when walking through the hallways in 1996, because of the bad smells caused by the various pranks played on Dolores Umbridge.
(Bubble-producing spell)
Description: Creates a stream of non-bursting bubbles. The colour of the bubbles can vary and can be controlled by the caster.
Seen/Mentioned: Professor Flitwick used the spell to decorate the twelve Christmas trees at Hogwarts in Christmas of 1991. The bubbles in this instance were golden.

Notes: This spell can be bought at Wiseacre's Wizarding Equipment in Diagon Alley in Lego Harry Potter: Years 1-4.
Carpe Retractum
Pronunciation: car-pay ruh-track-tum

Notes: Invented by Felix Summerbee.
Cistem Aperio
Pronunciation:: SIS-tem uh-PE-ree-o
Description: It opens a chest.
Etymology: aperio is Latin for open, uncover, to uncover, lay bare, reveal, or make clear. Cista is Latin for trunk, or chest. If so, however, Cistem is likely a form of b*****d Latin. Furthermore, if cista is its root, then it would be pronounced with a hard c (ca)
Seen/Mentioned: It was used by Tom Riddle to open the chest where Aragog was hidden.
Colloportus
Pronunciation: cul-loh-POR-tus
Description: This spell will magically lock a door, preventing it from being opened by Muggle means.
Seen/Mentioned: First in 1996 by Hermione in the Department of Mysteries against some Death Eaters.
Etymology: Perhaps a portmanteau of the Latin words colligere ("gather" or "collect") and porta ("gate"). The Greek root kolla also means "glue" and becomes collo- in many English words. Notably, the spell causes a door to seal itself "with an odd squelching noise". It may also be derived from portcullis, which was used in medieval times as a barricade or last line of defence.
Notes: The Death Eaters did succeed in opening a door locked with Colloportus using Alohomora.
Colloshoo
Description: This spell is used to glue one's shoes to the ground with some sort of sticky ectoplasm.
Seen/Mentioned: This spells is seen in the Harry Potter Trading Card Game.
Etymology: The suffix "shoo" derives from the English noun "shoe". The prefix "Collo" derives from the greek verb: "κολάω,κολώ" (which means "to glue").
(Colour-Change Charm)
Pronunciation::Unknown
Description: Changes an object's colour.
Seen/Mentioned: Used in Harry's O.W.L. examinations in 1996. It may also be the same charm as when Harry accidentally changed the colour of his eyebrow, before he asked Luna to Slughorn's Christmas party. (Unlikely, as that was performed as a Transfiguration exercise, which is rather unrelated to Charms.) Could of possibly been used when Harry accidentally changed the colour of his teachers hair, in his Primary School.
Colovaria
Pronunciation: co-loh-VA-riah
Description: Colovaria is a charm used to change one's hair colour and style.
Seen/Mentioned: It can be bought in Wiseacre's Wizarding Equipment in Diagon Alley in Lego Harry Potter: Years 1-4.
Etymology: The incantation probably derives from the words "colour" and "vary", meaning that the spell alters, varies the coulour of an object.
Notes: It is possible that this is the incantation of the Colour Change Charm.
Confringo (Blasting Curse)
Pronunciation: con-FRIN-goh (hard "g") or con-FRIN-joh
Description: Causes anything that the spell comes into contact with to explode into flames.
Seen/Mentioned: Used by Harry to destroy the side-car of the flying motorbike during the battle against the Death Eaters in 1997. Later, Hermione used it in an attempt to kill Nagini and facilitate an escape from Bathilda Bagshot's house in Godric's Hollow.
Etymology: Confringo is Latin for "I break".
Notes: This spell seems to use heat as the source for the explosion. Harry is able to feel the 'heat' of the spell as it passes him when Hermione uses it against Nagini. Noting this, and due to the description of how the side-car exploded, it seems that the Blasting Curse is essentially a magical bomb, while the similar curse Expulso merely blows objects apart without using heat.
Confundo (Confundus Charm)
Pronunciation: con-FUN-doh
Description: Causes the victim to become confused and befuddled.
Seen/Mentioned: First mentioned in 1994, when Severus Snape suggested that Harry and Hermione had been Confunded so that they would believe Sirius Black's claim to innocence. Also used in 1996 by Hermione to prevent Cormac McLaggen from making Gryffindor Keeper over Ron. The Confundus Charm was used multiple times in 1997 including: Severus Snape on Ministry of Magic Official John Dawlish, Harry Potter while under his Invisibility cloak on two Gringotts wizard guards who were wielding Probity Probes, and again by Severus Snape on Mundungus Fletcher under orders from Albus Dumbledore. While under the influence of the Confundus Charm, Mundungus then "suggested" to the Order of the Phoenix that they use seven Harrys to confuse Voldemort while they move him from Privet Drive to The Burrow. The Confundus Charm was also used in 2017 by Ron Weasley as the means used to pass his Muggle driving exam.
Etymology: The word "confundus" appears to be derived from the Latin confundere, meaning "to confuse; to perplex", whereas confundo means "I confuse". Similarly, it may also derive from the english word "confound".
(Conjunctivitus Curse)
Pronunciation: Rup-ti-SPECK-tis
Description: A curse that causes great pain to the victim's eyes.
Seen/Mentioned: It was suggested by Sirius Black in the letter that he sent Harry and used by Viktor Krum in the first task of the Triwizard Tournament in 1994. It was also used by Madame Maxime in 1995 on giants.
Etymology: Presumably, the common name is derived from the Conjunctivitis disease, more commonly known as "pink eye" or "caterpillar eye" due to its scabby inflammation. However, the incantation may come from the Latin words specto meaning "to watch" and the Latin word for "disrupt", in which case, the incantation would mean "disrupt the sight'.
(Cornflake skin spell)
Description: causes the target's skin to look as though it was coated in cornflakes.
Seen/Mentioned: In 1996, Warrington went to the hospital wing for treatment after he was hit with it, presumably in retaliation for the Inquisitorial Squad's recent behaviour.

Seen/Mentioned: In the video game version of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone a Slytherin student asks about cribbing spells.
Crucio (Cruciatus Curse)
Pronunciation: KROO-shea-oh, KROO-see-oh
Description: Inflicts intense pain on the recipient of the curse. The pain is described as hot knives being driven into you. This curse is affected by the caster's emotions. In an incurable rage, Harry Potter attempts this curse on Bellatrix Lestrange after she murders his Godfather. The curse fails to hurt Bellatrix for long and she mocks him, stating that the caster needed to enjoy the pain inflicted with the Cruciatus Curse. The only time Harry has successfully executed this curse is in the Ravenclaw common room on Amycus Carrow, who had forced Minerva McGonagall to lead him in after he heard that Harry was there. He planned to pass off the assault of his sister, Alecto who Harry had stunned upon entrance, onto the students for an excuse to punish them. When McGonagall objected, he spat in her face. Enraged by his treatment of a teacher he greatly admired, and of the students, Harry burst from the concealment of the Invisibility cloak and cast a true Cruciatus Curse, knocking the Death Eater out.
Seen/Mentionedarty Crouch Jr. who was impersonating the ex-Auror Alastor Moody, used it on a spider during a "class demonstration" in a Defence Against the Dark Arts class.

Deletrius
Pronunciation: deh-LEE-tree-us
Description: An erasure spell. It erases images and magical "after-effects".
Seen/Mentioned: First seen in 1994 when Amos Diggory got rid of the echo of the Dark Mark from Harry's wand.
Etymology: Latin delere, meaning "to destroy". A different tense spawns the English word "delete".

Description: This hex makes the victim's teeth grow rapidly.
Seen/Mentioned: Introduced in 1994 when Draco Malfoy's spell rebounded on Hermione outside of the Potions classroom.

Depulso (Banishing Charm)
Pronunciation: biggrin e-pul-soh
Description: The Banishing Charm. Used to send the target to a certain location.
Seen/Method: Learned in the fourth year at Hogwarts.
Etymology: From the Latin “depulsio”, meaning “driving away”. Also is similar to repulse meaning "drive away with force". It could also be seen to be derived from the english word pulse (as in a pulse of energy.) and the prefix "de" which would make it mean "a negative pulse of energy."
Descendo
Pronunciation: deh-SEN-doh
Description: Causes any targeted object to move downwards.
Seen/Mentioned: In 1997, it was used by Ron to magically cause the stairs in his room, which lead to the attic, to descend, as well as by Crabbe in the Room of Requirement to lower the wall behind which Ron was hiding.
Etymology: Descendo is Latin for "I descend".

Description: This spell places immense downward pressure upon its target, which may result in the violent fracturing of said target.
Seen/Mentioned: Introduced in 1998 when Hermione blasted a hole through the living room floor in Xenophilius Lovegood's house.

Diffindo (Severing Charm)
Pronunciation: dih-FIN-doh
Description: Tears the target or a specific area on the target.
Seen/Mentioned: In 1994 when Harry urgently wanted to talk to Cedric Diggory he casted this spell to rip his bag, delaying him for class. Ron also used this spell to trim the lace off his dress robes before the Yule Ball. It was also used in 1996 by Harry to change the covers of his second hand and brand new copies of Advanced Potion Making.
Etymology: Latin diffindere, "to divide" or "to split".
Diminuendo

Pronunciation: dim-in-YEW-en-DOUGH
Desription: Forces objects to shrink
Seen/Mentioned: Performed by Nigel in the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.
Etymology: From the Latin word "diminuere", meaning to diminish. Quite posibly the musical term diminuendo, meaning a gradual decrease of loudness.

Dissendium
Pronunciation: dis-EN-dee-um
Description: Causes the statue of the humpbacked witch (Gunhilda Of Gorsemore) hiding the secret passage to Honeydukes to open up.
Seen/Mentioned: First seen in 1993.
Etymology: Quite simply, a phonetic spelling of the English word "descend" with a common Latin noun ending attached (-ium). The name also vaguely suggests "dissident", meaning to be against the laws. It could also come from the Latin word Dissocio, which means to part or to separate (in its verb form). The word en can mean both here and look Dium, could refer to the sun and normally translates as day or, more appropriately, today but can also be used as the command now. Together Dissendium could mean Separate here, now.
Notes: This may not be a spell in the strict sense, but a magical password like "Mimbulus Mimbletonia" (once a password for the Fat Lady) and "Acid Pops" (one of the passwords for Dumbledore's office gargoyle in 1996). However, it is mentioned that Harry has to tap the statue of the crone while saying the spell in order for it to open up. Also, the name of the spell is similar to the way other spells are named, suggesting that it may be a spell in its own right. A more logical explanation would be that it opens secret passages in general, although it is only used on the particular statue in the series, so this is not confirmed, it is just an idea.
Disillusionment Charm
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Hides objects and humans
Seen/Mentioned: Seen/Mentioned: Alastor Moody used the charm on Harry in 1995. Also mentioned in the Ministry of Magic leaflet provided to all magical people as a precaution against Voldemort's reign of terror. Xenophilius Lovegood mentions, in 1998, that invisibility cloaks are sometimes created by casting a disillusionment charm on a regular cloak, but that such charms will eventually fade and become visible. Is also used by Malfoy, Crabbe and Goyle in the Battle of Hogwarts.
Draconifors
Description: Turns statues of dragons into real dragons.
Etymology: From the Latin draco, meaning “dragon”, and fors, meaning “luck”. Questionable incantation.
Seen/Mentioned: PoA Game.
Ducklifors
Description: Transfigures target creature into a duck. A more reasonable incantation would be Zointrao Versavertamum (from zoo (animal-related), intra (within) and oo (egg), plus Versaverte, the transfiguration spell.

Seen/Mentioned: GoF Game.

Pronunciation: GLISS-ee-oh, gliss-SAY-oh
Description: Causes the steps on a stairway to flatten and form a ramp, slide, or chute.
Seen/Mentioned: Used by Hermione to escape from pursuing Death Eaters in 1998. It is possible that the spell on the stairs to the girl's dormitories, which activates when boys try to climb the stairs, is the same .
Etymology: Possibly derived from the French verb glisser, meaning "to slide".
(Gripping Charm)
Description: Used to help someone grip something with more effectiveness. This charm is placed upon Quaffles to help Chasers carry the Quaffle whilst simultaneously holding their brooms.

Description: Causes the object/person in a vanishing cabinet to pass in its twin/other vanishing cabinet.
Seen/Mentioned: Used by Draco Malfoy in the Room Of Requirement, when testing the Vanishing Cabinet he was mending in the movie version of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.
Etymology: Harmonia Nectere Passus derives from the Latin word "harmonia", meaning "harmony", the Latin word "nectere" which means "to tie, bind", and the Latin term "passus" meaning "step, pace", which came from "pati" meaning "suffer, allow, undergo". Effectively, the entire phrase comes out to mean "Allow(ing) to bind the harmony." Basically, binding the rift between the sister Vanishing Cabinets.
Herbifors
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: A spell that makes yellow flowers sprout out of the victims head.
Seen/Mentioned: It can be bought at Wiseacre's Wizarding Equipment in Diagon Alley in Lego Harry Potter: Years 1-4.

Homenum Revelio
Pronunciation: HOM-eh-num reh-VEH-lee-oh
Description: Reveals human presence in the vicinity of the caster.
Seen/Mentioned: Used multiple times by various people in 1997.
Etymology: Most likely from Latin homo, meaning human, and "reveal", though the classical Latin form would be hominem instead of homenum, which shows Portuguese influence ("man" is homem in Portuguese)—indeed, Rowling speaks the language.
Notes: It can be used non-verbally; Dumbledore does so to detect Harry underneath his Invisibility Cloak.[8]
(Homorphus Charm)
Description: Causes an Animagus or transfigured object to assume its normal shape.
Seen/Mentioned: According to Lockhart, he used it to force the Wagga Wagga Werewolf to take its human form. It was, however, used by Lupin and Sirius on the rat named Scabbers to reveal that he was Peter Pettigrew in Prisoner of Azkaban.
Suggested Etymology: Latin homo meaning "person" and Greek morphosis meaning "shaping"
(Horn-growing hex)
Description: makes the victim grow horns.
Seen/Mentioned: It was briefly mentioned in question 7 of the W.O.M.B.A.T. test on what should recieve the lightest punishment by the Wizengamot "horns created on a culprits mother by a broken wand."
(Horton-Keitch Braking Charm)
Description: This spell was first used on the Comet 140 to prevent players from overshooting the goal posts and from flying off-sides.
Seen/Mentioned: Mentioned in Quidditch Through the Ages as the charm that gave the Comet 140 an advantage over the Cleansweep.
(Horcrux Curse)
Description: This spell allows a part of a wizard's soul to pass into an object, thereby making the object a Horcrux. One has to commit murder and take advantage of the soul's "splitting apart" by this supreme act of evil in order to be able to perform this spell, and it is probably very complex. In 1943, Horace Slughorn described the spell to a young Tom Riddle as encasing a portion of the torn soul and placing it within an object. The spell itself is described in detail in a library book known as "Secret of the Darkest Art", which Hermione Granger summoned from Albus Dumbledore's office near the end of their sixth year. According to the text, use of this spell to separate the soul will make the remaining portion of the soul very fragile, and can only be reversed by "remorse" of the wrongs the creator had made; however, the pain caused by attempting to reverse the creation of a Horcrux can destroy the individual.
Seen/Mentioned: Used by Lord Voldemort while creating his Horcruxes.
Notes: When J.K.Rowling was asked about what the steps are to create a Horcrux Rowling declined to answer, saying that "some things are better left unsaid". However, in the Harry Potter Encyclopedia, it is explained, and the or is said to have felt like vomiting after reading it.
(Hot-Air Charm)
Description: Causes wand to emit hot air.
Seen/Mentioned: Used by Hermione Granger in 1995 to dry off her robes. Also used shortly after to melt snow. Also was used by Albus Dumbledore in 1997 to dry Harry's and his own robes.
(Hurling Hex)
Description: Causes brooms to vibrate violently in the air and try to buck their rider off.
Seen/Mentioned: In 1991, Professor Quirrell may have been casting a wordless and wandless version of this spell on Harry's broom during his Quidditch match. Professor Flitwick suggested that Harry's confiscated Firebolt may be jinxed with this spell.
I
Immobulus (Freezing Charm)
Pronunciation: eem-o-bue-les
Description: Renders target immobile.
Seen/Mentioned: Hermione used it 1992 to freeze 2 Cornish Pixies. According to Horace Slughorn, a Freezing Charm will disable a Muggle Burglar Alarm. It strikes resemblances to the Flame-Freezing Charm, which negates the effects of fire.
Etymology: From the Latin “immobilis”, meaning immovable.
Notes: The Incantation was mentioned in the movie adaptations of Chamber of Secrets (which froze all the Cornish Pixies, not just 2) and Prisoner of Azkaban.
Impedimenta (Impediment Jinx)
Pronunciation: im-ped-ih-MEN-tah
Description: This hex is capable of tripping, freezing, binding, knocking back and generally impeding the target's progress towards the caster. The extent to which the spell's specific action can be controlled by the caster is unclear.
Seen/Mentioned: Used in 1995 when Harry was practising for the Third Task of the Triwizard Tournament. In 1996, Harry saw in a memory that James Potter used it on Severus Snape. Also used in 1997 by Harry against the Inferi and Snape. Stronger uses of this spell seem capable of blowing targets away.
Etymology: Latin impedimentum (plural impedimenta), "a hindrance" or "an impediment".
Imperio (Imperius Curse)
Pronunciation: im-PEER-ee-oh
Description: One of the three "Unforgivable Curses". Places the subject in a dream-like state, in which he or she is utterly subject to the will of the caster. However, those who are strong willed may learn to resist it.
Seen/Mentioned: Used on many occasions. First seen in 1994 when Barty Crouch Jr, impersonating ex-Auror Alastor Moody, used it on a spider and later on students during a "class demonstration" in a Defence Against the Dark Arts class. While breaking into Gringotts in 1998, Harry used it on a goblin and a Death Eater when they became suspicious.
Etymology: Latin impero, I command, and English "imperious".
(Imperturbable Charm)
Description: Makes objects such as doors impenetrable (by everything, including sounds and objects).
Seen/Mentioned: The spell was used in 1995 by Hermione to trap Rita Skeeter within a bottle while she was in beetle form. It was also used by Molly Weasley in the same year on the door of the room in which an Order of the Phoenix meeting was being held, in order to prevent her sons, Fred and George, from eavesdropping.
Impervius (Impervius Charm)
Pronunciation: im-PUR-vee-us
Description: This spell makes something repel (literally, become impervious to) substances and outside forces including water.
Seen/Mentioned: Used by Hermione Granger in 1993 on Harry's glasses while in a Quidditch match and also by the Gryffindor Quidditch team. Also used in 1997, first by Ron to protect objects in Yaxley's office from rain, and then by Hermione to protect Harry, Ron and Griphook from the burning treasure in the Lestranges' vault.
Etymology: It is said that the Latin impervius means (and is the source of) "impervious"; although it is the source of the word, it is better translated as impassable, as in a mountain peak.
Inanimatus Conjurus
Pronunciation: in-an-ih-MAH-tus CON-jur-us
Description: It is a spell of unknown effect, most likely used to conjure an inanimate object.
Seen/Mentioned: Mentioned briefly in 1995.
Incarcerous
Pronunciation: in-CAR-ser-us
Description: Ties someone or something up with ropes.
Seen/Mentioned: First heard in 1996, when Dolores Umbridge tries to hold off Centaurs. Also used by Harry on the Inferi in Voldemort's Horcrux cave in 1997.
Etymology: Probably English incarcerate, "to imprison". Possibly linked to the Latin in carcerem, "in(to) prison".
Notes: A non-verbal version of this spell may have been used to tie up Remus Lupin by Severus Snape during the encounter in the Shrieking Shack, and then later Peter Pettigrew in 1994. It may also have been used by Quirrell in 1992, although he is said to have merely "snapped his fingers". Also, it may have been the spell Antonin Dolohov used nonverbally to bind Ron Weasley with "shinining black ropes" in a skirmish on Tottenham Court Road.
Notes (2): It can be bought at Wiseacre's Wizarding Equipment in Diagon Alley in Lego Harry Potter: Years 1-4.
Incendio
Pronunciation: in-SEN-dee-oh
Description: Produces fire.
Seen/Mentioned: It was first seen in 1994 by Arthur Weasley to create a fire in the Dursleys' hearth so that he could use Floo powder there. In 1997, this spell was used several times in battle, most noticeably when Hagrid's hut was set ablaze. It was also possibly used by Hagrid in 1991 to create a fire in the hearth before bringing Harry to London.
Etymology: Latin incendere, "to set fire (to)". Note that the first principal part of this verb (meaning "I set fire") is incendo, not incendio; Rowling's incantation does not match exactly any correct conjugation of the verb. Incêndio, in Portuguese (same pronunciation as in English) means 'huge fire'. "Encender" in Spanish means "to ignite" and "Incendie" in French means flame.
Notes: Probably the charm used frequently by Hermione, as it is noted that creating small portable fires is a specialty of hers. Although this fire is said to be portable and blue, which may be a different enchanted fire, possibly the bluebells flames incantation
Inflatus
Pronunciation: in-FLAY-tus
Description: Inflates objects (living or dead).
Seen/Mentioned: One of the secondary spells in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (video game)
Etymology: The prefix 'Inflate' derives from the English verb "to expand with oxygen".
Informous
Pronunciation: in-FOR-m-es
Description: Informous is a spell that is used to complete one's Folio Bruti. A page with a brief description (including weaknesses and strengths) of the charmed creature is added to the caster's Folio Bruti.
Seen/Mentioned: This was seen in the video game version of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (GBC version)
Etymology: The prefix Info derives from the English verb "to inform".
(Intruder Charm)
Description: Detects intruders and sounds an alarm.
Seen/Mentioned: Horace Slughorn used it on a Muggle-owned house he stayed in temporarily in 1996, but did not hear it go off when Albus Dumbledore and Harry Potter arrived, as he was in the bath.
J
(Jelly-Legs Jinx)
Description: A jinx that renders its victim's legs temporarily useless, leaving them to wobble around helplessly until the effect wears off or the counter-jinx is performed.
Seen/Mentioned: First mentioned as one of the jinxes in the book Curses and Counter-Curses. Then used on Harry, practising for the Third Task of the Triwizard Tournament, by Hermione. At the end of the term, Draco Malfoy, Vincent Crabbe and Gregory Goyle tried to harass Harry Potter on the Hogwarts Express and were hit with a few hexes, curses and jinxes, including the Jelly-Legs Jinx (cast by George Weasley).
(Jelly-Brain Jinx)
Description: Presumably affects the target's mental processes.
Seen/Mentioned: During the September 1999 riot that took place during the Puddlemere United/Holyhead Harpies Quidditch game, a lot of Harpy supporters were using this jinx.
Notes:This spell may have been the spell that the Death Eaters hit Ron with in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix in the Battle of the Department of Mysteries.
(Jelly-Fingers Curse)
Description: Causes the target's fingers to become almost jelly-like to make it uneasy for the victim to grasp objects.
Seen/Mentioned: After a June 1999 Pride of Portree/Appleby Arrows Quidditch game, the losing Seeker accused his opposite number of putting this curse on him as they both closed in on the Snitch.
L
Lacarnum Inflamarae
Pronunciation: la-CAR-num in-fla-MA-ray
Description: It sends a ball of fire from the wand
Seen/Mentioned: Used by Hermione in 1991 to stop Snape from cursing Harry. The incantation is only used in the movie adaption of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone.
Etymology: Latin inflammo, or the verb inflammatio meaning "to set on fire". Lacarnum, from the Latin “lacerna”, meaning “cloak”.
Langlock
Pronunciation: LANG-lock
Description: Glues the subject's tongue to the roof of their mouth. Created by Severus Snape.
Seen/Mentioned: Used by Harry on Peeves and twice on Argus Filch, to general applause.
Etymology: Probably from the French langue ("tongue") and the English "lock".
(Leek Jinx)
Description: Makes leeks sprout out of the target's ears.
Seen/Mentioned: Used by a fighting Gryffindor fourth year and sixth year Slytherin before a Quidditch match in 1992.
Legilimens (Legilimency Spell)
Pronunciation: Le-JIL-ih-mens
Description: Allows the caster to delve into the mind of the victim, allowing the caster to see the memories, thoughts, and emotions of the victim.
Seen/Mentioned: Used by Severus Snape on Harry after he had a dream about Arthur Weasley being attacked by Nagini in 1995. Also during Occlumency lessons in 1996. Also used non-verbally by Snape on Harry in 1997 to allow him to see where Harry had learned the Sectumsempra spell.
Etymology: Latin legere ("to read") and mens ("mind").
Levicorpus
Pronunciation: levi-COR-pus
Description: The victim is dangled upside-down by their ankles, sometimes accompanied by a flash of light (this may be a variant of the spell).
Seen/Mentioned: Apparently invented by the Half-Blood Prince; it is a non-verbal-only spell (although it is whispered by Hermione in 1997). Harry Potter learnt it by reading the notes written by the Half-Blood Prince. He used it on Ron. The previous year, Harry had seen (through the Pensieve used by Severus Snape) his father, James Potter, use the spell against Professor Snape. In the Order of the Phoenix movie, Luna Lovegood somehow uses this against a Death Eater, although she speaks it, and the spell's name is unknown to any students until Half-Blood Prince.
Etymology: Latin levare, "raise" and corpus, "body".
Liberacorpus
Pronunciation: LIB-er-ah-cor-pus
Description: Counteracts Levicorpus.
Seen/Mentioned: Harry used the spell in 1996 to counteract Levicorpus he had inadvertently cast on Ron.
Etymology: Latin liberare, "to free", and corpus, "body".
Notes: It is not clear why Levicorpus has a specific counter-spell, and is not neutralized by simply using Finite Incantatem, although this could be due to the fact that Snape invented the spell and therefore made it irreversible except by its specific counter-curse.
Locomotor(name of object)
Pronunciation: LOH-koh-moh-tor
Description: The spell is always used with the name of a target, at which the wand is pointed (e.g. "Locomotor Trunk!"). The spell causes the named object to rise in the air and move around at the will of the caster.
Seen/Mentioned: Used by Nymphadora Tonks in Harry Potter to move Harry's trunk from his room. Filius Flitwick similarly used it to move Sybill Trelawney's trunk after Dolores Umbridge sacked her. Parvati Patil and Lavender Brown used this spell to race their pencil cases around the edges of the table. A variation seen in 1998 is Piertotum Locomotor, which caused the statues of Hogwarts to be animated.
Etymology: Latin locus (place) and moto, "set in motion" (passive motor), or English locomotion.
Locomotor Mortis (Leg-Locker Curse)
Pronunciation: LOH-koh-moh-tor MOR-tis
Description: Locks the legs together, preventing the victim from moving the legs in any fashion.
Seen/Mentioned: Used by Draco Malfoy on Neville Longbottom in 1991. Used by Harry Potter on Draco Malfoy, who deflected it, in 1996.
Etymology: English locomotion, "movement" + Latin mortis, "of death".
Notes: It is unclear whether or how this spell is related to the Locomotor spell. It could, however, be that the curse "locks" any part of the body in accordance to where it is pointed, or moves the body into a position of the caster's choosing whilst placing them into an immobile state. It is possible that Draco had pointed his wand at Neville and the curse "locked" his legs together.
Notes (2): It can be bought at Wiseacre's Wizarding Equipment in Diagon Alley in Lego Harry Potter: Years 1-4.

Rictumsempra (Tickling Charm)
Pronunciation: ric-tuhm-SEM-pra
Description: Causes an extreme tickling sensation that, in the case of Draco Malfoy, made him drop to the floor laughing.
Seen/Mentioned: By Harry Potter on Draco Malfoy in 1992, when they fought in the Duelling Club.
Etymology: Possibly the sum of two words; The Latin rictus, meaning "The expanse of an open mouth", and semper, meaning "Always". Rictus is generally used as an expression of terror, however, "always an open mouth" would, in most cases, correspond to the act of laughing uncontrollably.
Notes: It can be bought at Wiseacre's Wizarding Equipment in Diagon Alley in Lego Harry Potter: Years 1-4.
Riddikulus (Boggart-Banishing Spell)
Pronunciation: rih-dih-KYU-lus
Description: A spell used when fighting a Boggart, "Riddikulus" forces the Boggart to take the appearance of an object the caster is focusing on. Best results can be achieved if the caster if focusing on something humorous, with the desire that laughter will weaken the Boggart.
Seen/Mentioned: First seen in 1993, when taught by Remus Lupin.
Etymology: Latin word ridiculus, "laughable" (but perhaps "absurd" or "silly" in this context).
Notes: The effect of the spell seems to rely primarily on the state of mind of the caster. It doesn't actually change the shape of a boggart into something humorous, but rather whatever the caster is concentrating on at the moment of the casting, as when Neville was thinking of his grandmother's dress. Presumably, Mrs. Weasley couldn't take her mind off of her fears for her family, so the Boggart was changed into other members of the family rather than something humorous.
(Rowboat spell)
Description: A spell invented by Hagrid which propels rowboats to a preset destination.
Seen/mentioned: Hagrid used the spell on the rowboats at Hogwarts, to transport the First years from Hogsmeade Station to the Boathouse. It may also have been the spell that he used to propel the rowboat that he used to take Harry from the Hut-on-the-Rock back to the mainland in 1991.
S
Salvio Hexia
Pronunciation: SAL-vee-oh HECKS-ee-ah
Description: Unknown, as it was one of several spells that were used to help strengthen Harry's campsite, and had no seen effects. Possibly deflects minor hexes aimed at an object (the tent)
Etymology: Possibly derived from the Latin "salveo," meaning "to be in good health," and used as a form of greeting and farewell, and a pseudo-Latin derivative of the English word "hex"—hence, "Farewell, hexes!"
Seen/Mentioned: Harry and Hermione cast this spell to strengthen their campsite's defences against intruders in 1997.
Notes: Possibly the Hex Deflection spells the fake Moody mentioned in 1994.
Scourgify (Scouring Charm)
Pronunciation: SKUR-jih-fiy
Description: Used to clean something.
Seen/Mentioned: First used by Nymphadora Tonks to clean Hedwig's cage in 1995. Later, Ginny Weasley performed the spell to clean up the Stinksap on the Hogwarts Express, also used by James Potter on Severus Snape after he shouted various curses and obscenities at him.
Etymology: Perhaps related to English scour, "clean". -ify is a common English suffix meaning "to make ...". Therefore scourgify could mean "to make clean".
Sectumsempra
Pronunciation: sec-tum-SEMP-rah
Description: A dark spell that creates large, blood-oozing gashes on the subject as if said subject had been "slashed by a sword". Invented by Severus Snape.
Seen/Mentioned: Used by Harry in 1997 against Draco Malfoy, and then later against both the Inferi in Lord Voldemort's Horcrux chamber, and Snape used it against George Weasley (was unintentional; aimed for a Death Eater that tried to curse Lupin) in the Order's flight from Privet Drive. Harry learned it in Snape's old Potions textbook. In 1998, the spell is said to be Severus Snape's "signature" spell.
Etymology: Latin sectum, "cut", and semper, "always".
Notes: The spell can apparently be used against any object, but was not effective when used against Inferi because they could not bleed. The movement of the wand seems to affect how someone is cut, suggested by the erratic patterns of slashes left on Draco Malfoy's face and chest, produced by Harry Potter's wild wand-swings while using the spell against Draco. Wounds caused by this spell can be healed as proved by Severus Snape who after Harry hit Draco Malfoy with this spell he healed Draco's wounds and told him to go and get treated with dittany at once so that he would even avoid any sign of any wound. However it seems that it depends on the caster's magical abilities because Molly Weasley could not heal and restore George Weasley's ear that was cursed off by this spell.
Serpensortia
Pronunciation: ser-pen-SOR-shah, SER-pehn-SOR-tyah
Description: Conjures a serpent from the spellcaster's wand.
Seen/Mentioned: Used by Draco Malfoy while dueling Harry Potter in 1992.
Etymology: Latin serpens meaning "a snake" and Latin ortis meaning "source".[9]
Silencio (Silencing Charm)
Pronunciation: sih-LEN-see-oh
Description: Makes something silent.
Seen/Mentioned: First used by Hermione in 1996 to silence a frog and a raven in Charms class, then later used to silence a Death Eater that was trying to tell his comrades where they were.
Etymology: Probably Latin silentium, "silence". Also, silencio and silêncio (which is closer to the English pronunciation) mean "silence" in Spanish and Portuguese, respectively.
(Slug Vomiting Charm)
Description: A jet of green light strikes the victim, who then vomits slugs for ten minutes. The sizes of the vomited slugs decrease with time.
Seen/Mentioned: In Chamber of Secrets, Ron attempts to use it on Draco; the spell backfired and hit him instead. It is also a spell that can be bought in Lego Harry Potter: Years 1-4, the incantation is Slugulus Eructo.
Notes: In the movie adaptation of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, an incantation was used, "Eat Slugs!", its unknown if that's its true incantation or not.
Sonorus
Pronunciation: soh-NOHR-uhs
Description: Magnifies the spellcaster's voice when one's wand is pointing to the side of the caster's neck.
Seen/Mentioned: By Ludo Bagman in 1994 at the begining of the Quidditch World Cup. Used by Lord Voldemort several times during the Battle of Hogwarts in 1998.
Etymology: Latin sonorus, "loud; noisy".
Notes: The counter-spell is Quietus. In the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire Cornelius Fudge simply holds his wand to his throat while speaking, it is possible that he has performed a Nonverbal spell.
Specialis Revelio (Scarpin's Revelaspell)
Pronunciation: speh-see-AH-LIS reh-VEL-ee-oh
Description: Apparently causes an object to show its hidden secrets or magical properties.
Seen/Mentioned: Used by Hermione Granger to find out more of Harry's Advanced Potion-Making book in 1996. Used by Ernie Macmillan to find out ingredients of a potion. Its precise effects are unknown, as there are no recorded occasions of the spell being successful.
Etymology: Latin specialis, "particular;individual" and revelare (present tense revelo), "unveil".
Notes: In 1994, Severus Snape cast a similar spell, but with different words ("Reveal your secrets!"), on the Marauder's Map, though he may have just been saying those words as he cast the spell non-verbally. The spell may also be able to distinguish different ingredients in a potion, though this is noted to merely sound impressive.
Spongify (Cushioning Charm)
Pronunciation: s-pon-gee-fy
Description: Creates an invisible cushioned area. Used primarily in broomstick manufacturing, to provide more comfort to the rider.
Seen/Mentioned: Was used to cushion Harry, Ron, and Hermione's fall in Gringotts in 1997.
(Stealth Sensoring Spell)
Description: Detects those under magical disguise.
Seen/Mentioned: In 1996, Professor Umbridge cast this around her office.
Steleus
Pronunciation: STÉ-lee-us
Description: A hex that causes the victim to sneeze for a short period of time. This spell is used in duelling to distract the opponent.
Seen/Mentioned: It is only seen in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (video game).
Etymology: Steleus derives from the Latin sternuo, meaning I sneeze.
(Stinging Hex, Stinging Jinx)
Description: Produces a stinging sensation in the victim, resulting in angry red welts and occasionally the severe inflammation of the affected area.
Seen/Mentioned: Harry Potter inadvertently used one on Severus Snape during Occlumency lessons in 1996. It was non-debilitating in that instance, but it is stronger when intentionally cast, as shown by the results of Hermione Granger's Stinging Hex used on Harry Potter in 1998 to purposefully distort Harry's appearance. Lucius Malfoy calls it the Stinging Jinx in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.
Stupefy (Stunning Spell)
Pronunciation: STOO-puh-fye
Description: Stuns victim. If used too forcefully, it will put the victim in an unconscious state.
Seen/Mentioned: Often; particularly by a number of wizards and witches (including Dolores Umbridge) against Minerva McGonagall in 1996. It's also taught by Harry in his D.A. meetings.
Etymology: English stupefy, which means 'to put into a stupor', a temporary vegetative state.
Notes: The physical manifestation of the spell is a beam of red light emanating from the caster's wand. The spell wears off after a short time, and can be countered by Rennervate. Nearly useless on magic-resistant creatures such as dragons, trolls and giants unless more than one Stupefy spell is used at the same time. The force of the spell is additive or perhaps even exponential, and it can cause severe injury if many spells are used on a target that is not normally resistant to its effects. Hagrid, as a half-giant, is impervious to this spell - or at least, a lone one.
(Supersensory Charm)
Description: Presumably causes the caster to have enhanced senses, or to be able to sense things they would not normally sense.
Seen/Mentioned: Mentioned by Ron outside of the Hogwarts Express in 2017 as a potential substitute for using mirrors while driving a Muggle automobile.
(Switching Spell)
Description: Causes two objects to be switched for one another
Seen/Mentioned: Harry contemplated using this spell against his dragon in the first task of the Triwizard Tournament. ((He considered swapping its fangs for wine gums)). Neville Longbottom misuses the spell, transplanting his ears onto a cactus.
T
(Taboo)
Description: A jinx which may be placed upon a word or a name, so that whenever that word is spoken, a magical disturbance is created which alerts the caster of the Taboo to the location of the speaker. Any protective enchantments in effect around the speaker are broken when the Tabooed word is spoken aloud.
Seen/Mentioned: In Deathly Hallows, this spell is placed on the word "Voldemort"; Harry, Ron and Hermione are tracked this way to Tottenham Court Road. Ron tells the other two to stop using the word as he began to fear the name might be a jinx, later discovering it to be a Taboo. Later in the book, Harry accidentally says Voldemort's name again, resulting in the trio being caught by Death Eaters and taken to Malfoy Manor.
Notes: A possible incantation could be "vomica vox" meaning "cursed word" presumably followed by the word.
Tarantallegra
Pronunciation: tuh-RAHN-tuh-LEHG-rah
Description: Makes victim's legs dance uncontrollably (recalling the tarantella dance).
Seen/Mentioned: First used by Draco Malfoy on Harry in the Dueling Club in 1992.
Etymology: Italian tarantella, a kind of fast country dance once popular in parts of Italy, supposedly from the frantic motion caused by the bite of a tarantula; and allegro, a musical term meaning "quick".
Notes: It can be bought at Wiseacre's Wizarding Equipment in Diagon Alley in Lego Harry Potter: Years 1-4.
Tergeo
Pronunciation: TUR-jee-oh
Description: A spell used to siphon matter from a surface, eg. blood, ink, dust, etc.
Seen/Mentioned: Hermione Granger used the spell in 1996 to remove blood from Harry's face. It is later used to remove spilled ink from parchment. It was also used in 1997 to clean off a handkerchief by Ron and to dust off a picture of Gellert Grindelwald in Bathilda Bagshot's house by Harry Potter.
Etymology: Latin tergere, "wipe off; cleanse".
(Toenail Growth Hex)
Description: Causes the toenails to grow at an extreme and uncontrollable rate.
Seen/Mentioned: In 1996, Harry uses this to much applause from classmates.
Notes: This is a hex that is probably not approved by the Ministry of Magic, as it was invented by Severus Snape. And it is unknown whether "Toenail Growth Hex" is its real name, as its title was never mentioned.
(Tongue-Tying Curse)
Description: A curse which prevents certain information from being revealed by the individual upon whom the spell is placed. The curse manifests itself by causing the tongue to temporarily curl backwards upon itself.
Seen/Mentioned: Seen in 1997 as a deterrent to Severus Snape, or any other unwanted visitor of 12 Grimmauld Place, from betraying their location to anyone else.
(Transmogrifian Torture)
Description: Unknown effect upon victim; most likely extreme torture that can lead to death. Given the source, the Torture may not actually exist.
Seen/Mentioned: Gilderoy Lockhart suggested that it was this curse that "killed" Mrs. Norris after she was really found petrified on a torch bracket.
Etymology: English "transmogrify", meaning "to change or alter greatly, often to grotesque effect", possibly implying that the curse changes the shape of the victim to cause pain.
(Trip Jinx)
Description: A jinx to trip up or impede the target. Precise effects unknown.
Seen/Mentioned: Seen in 1996. It was cast successfully on Harry Potter by Draco Malfoy, when he and other members of the Inquisitorial Squad attempted to round up members of Dumbledore's Army.
Notes: In Lego Harry Potter: Years 1-4, it can be bought at Wiseacre's Wizarding Equipment in Diagon Alley.
U
(Unbreakable Vow)
Description: Causes a vow taken by a witch or wizard to be inviolable; if they should break it, the consequence is death.
Seen/Mentioned: Snape takes an Unbreakable Vow with Narcissa Malfoy at the beginning of Half-Blood Prince, vowing to help Narcissa's son Draco with a task given to him by Voldemort, and to finish the task should Draco prove incapable. Fred and George attempted to force an Unbreakable Vow upon Ron as children. According to Ron, it causes death when the vow is broken.
(Unbreakable Charm)
Description: Makes something unbreakable.
Seen/Mentioned: Towards the end of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Hermione casts the charm on a jar, in which she puts Rita Skeeter in her Animagus beetle form to prevent her from transforming back into a human.
(Undetectable Extension Charm)
Description: Causes a container's capacity to be increased, without changing the object's appearance on the outside.
Seen/Mentioned: This spell is most likely the one Arthur Weasley used to allow eight people, six large trunks, two owls, and a rat to fit comfortably inside his modified Ford Anglia in 1992. Probably used on the tent in which the Weasleys, Harry and Hermione stay during the Quidditch World Cup in 1994; the tent is also used by Harry, Ron and Hermione as shelter in 1997. Also, Hermione cast this spell upon her handbag in the same year.

Notes: Mentioned in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone in the Forbidden Forest with no incantation.
Vipera Evanesca
Pronunciation: VIYP-er-uh ehv-uhn-EHS-kuh
Desciption: Counter Spell for Serpensortia. Seems not to merely "Vanish", but causes the snake to smolder from head and tail until it is reduced to a pile of ashes.
Seen/Mentioned: Severus Snape cast this spell in 1992 at the Duelling Club to get rid of a snake that Draco Malfoy had conjured while duelling Harry Potter. Albus Dumbledore also may have used this spell to vanish Voldemort's snake during their Duel in the Ministry Atrium.
Etymology: Vipera is a genus of venomous vipers, a type of snake. Evanesca likely shares its origin with Evanesco, which means "disappear" in Latin.
Vulnera Sanentur
Pronuncation: vul-nur-ah sahn-en-tur
Description: Causes wounds and gashes to heal up and any blood to return to the victim.
Seen/Mentioned: Used by Severus Snape to heal the wounds of Draco Malfoy caused by the Sectumsempra curse cast by Harry Potter in the film version of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.
Etymology: Vulnera Sanentur derives from the Latin vulnus, "wound," [12] and sanare, "to heal"; it is translated "may the wounds be healed."[13]
W
Waddiwasi
Pronunciation: wah-dee-WAH-see
Description: Appears to launch small objects through the air.
Seen/Mentioned: Used only once in the series, by Remus Lupin in 1993 to expel a wad of chewing gum from the key hole Peeves put it in, launching it up Peeves's nose.
Etymology: Latin vado, "go", and possibly vasa, "implements, vessels"; but this part is obscure. (The letter "V" in Latin is also written "U", and pronounced as the English "W".) It could also come from Swedish vadd, which means "soft mass" (in this case it was gum), and French vas y, "go there", as Lupin did not just make the gum fly out of the key hole, but he directed it up Peeves's nose. The word could also just be based on the English wad, as in "a wad of gum".
Notes: In reference to what was mentioned above under Etymology, it can be presumed that Waddiwasi could be the Banishing Charm or the Placement Charm mentioned in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them under the Kelpie entry.
Wingardium Leviosa (Levitation Charm)
Pronunciation: win-GAR-dee-um lev-ee-OH-sa
Description: Levitates objects.
Seen/Mentioned: First seen in 1991, when Professor Flitwick's first-year class practiced the spell. Later in the same year, Ron Weasley performed the spell on the club of a mountain troll. In 1992, Dobby uses this although Harry is accused of it. The spell was also used in 1997 by Harry to levitate the sidecar of Sirius's flying motorbike. Ron also used as the charm to make a twig fly into a knot on the Whomping Willow in 1998.
Etymology: "Wingardium" certainly contains English wing meaning "fly" [14], and Latin arduus, meaning "high" [2]. "Leviosa" most probably originates in Latin levis, meaning "light".
