1/28
Accio (Summoning Charm)
Pronunciation: Various suggestions have been made, including:
/ki.o/AK-ee-oh film and video game
/ksi.o/ AK-see-oh U.K. audio book
/si.o/ AS-see-oh U.S. audio book
Description: This charm summons an object to the caster, potentially over a significant
distance.[2]Its opposite is the Banishing Charm.
Seen/mentioned: First mentioned in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, when it was
briefly used byMolly Weasley on the Weasley twins to confiscate their Weasleys' Wizard
Wheezes' products from their pockets, before they left for the QuidditchWorld Cup.
Hermione was also mentioned trying to learn this charm during her ride aboard the
Hogwarts Express. Later on in the same book, Harry summons his broom to complete the
First Task of theTriwizard Tournament.[GF Ch.20]
Suggested etymology: The Latin word accio means "I call" or "I summon".[3]
Aguamenti(Aguamenti Charm)
Pronunciation:/wmnti/AH-gw-MEN-tee
Description: Produces a jet of water from the caster's wand.
Seen/mentioned: First seen in Goblet of Fire, when Fleur put the fire out on her skirt "with
a bit of water from her wand." First named in Half-Blood Prince, when Harry is being taught
how to perform this specific charm in Professor Flitwick's class. Later Harry casts this spell
in an attempt to create water for Dumbledore to drink after taking Voldemort's
potion[HBP Ch.26] and then to douse Hagrid's hut after it is set on fire later.[HBP Ch.28]
[DH Ch.31].
Suggested etymology: The Latin word aqua (water) combined with augmentum (comparewith English augment), an increase, from augere, to increase; see aug- in Indo-European
roots, meaning: increasing the water (flow), this combination explains the QU/GU
alteration in aqua- agua- (see agua e. g. in Portuguese and Spanish). -menti is the
genitive form of the suffix -mentum
Alohomora
Pronunciation:/lohmr/-LOH-h-MOHR-
Description: Used to open and/or unlock doors,[4] but doors can be bewitched so that this
spell has no effect.[citation needed]
Seen/mentioned: Used throughout the series, with the first use by Hermione in HarryPotter and the Philosopher's Stone. Used gradually less in the series as the characters
discover more and more doors, chests, etc. with counter-charms on them. (For example, the
doors into Professor Snape's and Professor Umbridge's offices are mentioned as
beingAlohomora-proof.[citation needed])
Etymology: J. K. Rowling stated that the word was from the West African Sidiki dialect used
in geomancy and has the literal meaning Friendly to thieves.[5]
Anapneo
Pronunciation:/npni.o/-NAP-nee-oh
Description: Clears the target's airway, if blocked.Seen/mentioned: Shown in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, Horace Slughorn casts
this spell on Marcus Belby when the latter begins to choke.[HBP Ch.7]

and the Order of the Phoenix.
Seen/mentioned: First said (not by name) at the beginning of the first book when Harry
arrives at the Dursleys' home. Seen first in Goblet of Fire against MuggleFrank Bryce, and
in every book following.
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 ofabracadabra, 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."[8] Rowling's use of
this name may have been influenced by Latin cadaver= "corpse".

homes.

fire.[20]

learned it from the Carrows.[DH Ch.31] (Alecto Carrowand Amycus Carrow; two Death
Eater siblings who taught atHogwarts for a brief period under Snape's reign as
Headmaster.) Therefore, Vincent Crabbe inadvertently destroyed one of Lord Voldemort's
Horcruxes.

Impedimenta (Impediment Jinx, Impediment Curse)
Pronunciation:/mpdmnt/im-PED-i-MEN-t
Description: This powerful spell 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 not made clear. If this spell does
bind, it does eventually wear off as stated in Deathly Hallows.
Seen/mentioned: Used in Goblet of Fire when Harry is practicing for the third task. Also
used by Madam Hooch to briefly stop Harry from fighting with Draco. Also seen toward the
end ofOrder of the Phoenix, when Harry is fighting the Death Eaters. Stronger uses of this
spell seem capable of blowing targets away.
Suggested etymology: Latin impedimentum (plural impedimenta) meaning "a hindrance"
or "an impediment".[12]
Imperio (Imperius Curse)
Pronunciation:/mpri.o/im-PEER-ee-oh
Description: Causes the victim of the curse to obey the spoken/unspoken commands of
the caster. The experience of being controlled by this curse is described as a complete,
wonderful release from any sense of responsibility or worry over one's actions, at the price
of one's free will. Resisting the effect of the curse is possible, however, and several
individuals have been able to successfully overcome it, including Harry and both of the
Crouches, who learn to resist the curse after being subjected to its effects for an extended
period. Harry describes the feeling of being the caster as controlling a marionette through a
wand (although Harry's particular experience is suspect due to his lack of commitment to
casting Unforgivable Curses). One of the three Unforgivable Curses.
Seen/mentioned: First mentioned (not by name) in the first book when Ron told Harry thatduring the first war Lucius Malfoy claimed that he had been jinxed, thus evading
imprisonment. First seen in Goblet of Fire introduced by Barty Crouch Jr. (acting as Moody)
and used on a spider. Later seen in the book when Barty Crouch Jr., acting as Professor
Moody, used it on all the students to see if they would be able to overcome it. Used by
Harry in Deathly Hallows on a Gringotts goblin and Travers, and by the Death Eaters on Pius
Thicknesse.
Suggested etymology:Imperare is Latin for "to order, command", and is the root of
several modern English words. Imperium means "command" or "domain",
and imperio means (among other things) "with authority". (Compare to impero, "I
command", and to crucio above.) Imperius is not, however, a Latin word.
(Imperturbable Charm)
Description: Makes objects such as doors impenetrable (by everything, including sounds
and objects).
Seen/mentioned: The spell is used by Mrs Weasley in Order of the Phoenixon the door of
the room in which an Order meeting was being held, to prevent her sons, Fred and George,
from eavesdropping (using their extendable ears). Also mentioned in Half-Blood
Prince when Harry, Ron, and Hermione followed Draco to Borgin and Burkes and used
extendable ears
Suggested etymology: Latin imperturbatus meaning "calm" or "undisturbed".[12]
