Spelling it out

I just wanted to share a list of my favourite spells from the Harry Poter series with you .They're not necessarily the best spells in history,but they're the ones that appealed to me,some because they were powerful,some because they were fun and some coz they sound so darn good.

Accio-simple,helpful,handy,easy to pronounce .Summons objects.

Expecto Patronum-in a way,it generates hope!

Point me-I love the simple wording...HP readers know what it does.For the others,it makes your wand act like a compass.

Wingardium Leviosa-Apart from the fact that you can make things fly about,it's memorable to me coz there's a Ron-Hermione dialogue associated with it.

Ron -"Wingardium Leviosaaa!"
Hermione-"It's Leviooosa ,not Leviosaaa.Make the' gar' nice and long."
Ron-"You do it then,if you're so clever.


Peskipiksipesternomi-Can you guess the inventor of this (fake)spell?Hint:It's five times winner of Witch Weekly's most charming smile award!

Muffliato-Keeps eavesdroppers away by creating a weird buzzing noise.

Incendio-Starts a roarin' fire.


Silencio-Shut just about any Muggle up!

Alohomora-Opens most locked doors.A boon for any wannabe Sherlock Holmes.

Lumos -You could,in Yellowcard's words,"LIGHT UP THE SKY"...

Avis -Makes birds shoot out of your wand(.Pretty ,ain't it?)

Imperio-Control people.Just think of the possibilities.You could convince the richest man in the world to leave you his property,or convince SRK to visit you at your place( ok,il admit im a Srk fan!)


Tarantallegra-Makes your opponent dance .LOL!

That's about it.

Oh,and I almosr forgot,JKR,i love ya.Thank you for Harry Potter!

@unpretentious,
Ure right!I probably should leave HP for the kids...Btw,I did read The Fountainhead,liked the Roark character and enjoyed the frequent flits to the architecural world ,somehow I'm not a fan though.

Could you sggest some other titles for me (preferably fiction?)
