Spells
Wikipedia-Spells seen in Harry Potter
A
Accio (The Summoning Charm)
Pronunciation: Various suggestions have been made:
æsio - english
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 naming the object desired ("Accio Firebolt"), or by pointing the wand at the desired object during or immediately following the incantation to "pull" it towards you. In either case, the caster must concentrate upon the object they wish to summon in order for the charm to succeed. It would also appear that the caster must know at least the general location of the object he is trying to summon.
of the Phoenix."
(Age-Line Charm)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Creates a line that is impassable by people below a set age.
Notes: The Age-Line is even impassable by users of age-potions.
Aguamenti/Aqua eructo (The Water Charm)
Pronunciation: ah-gwa-MEN-tee/ ah-gwa er-upt-o
Description: It produces a jet of water from the witch or wizard's wand.
Alohomora
Pronunciation: ah-LOH-hoh-MOHR-ah
Description: Used to open and unlock doors.
Notes: The spell can also be used to unseal doors upon which the Colloportus spell has been used.
Anapneo
Pronunciation: ah-NAHP-nee-oh
Description: Clears the target's airway, if blocked.
Notes: Anapneo and Episkey, which are first used in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, are the only spells in the series obviously derived from Greek. It is not out of the question that they are J. K. Rowling's acknowledgment to the unknown author of a fake Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix novel, who made extensive use of spells whose etymology is non-Latin, including Greek and even Japanese.
(Anti-Cheating Spell)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Cast on a quill to prevent the writer from cheating while writing answers.
[edit] (Anti-Disapparition Jinx)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Used to prevent Disapparition in an area for a time. Presumably can be used to prevent an enemy from entering a defended area, or used to trap an enemy in an area. .
(Anti-Disapparition Jinx)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Used to prevent Disapparition in an area for a time. Presumably can be used to prevent an enemy from entering a defended area, or used to trap an enemy in an area.
(Antonin Dolohov's Curse)
Pronunciation: Unknown, see below
Description: The curse appears to cause serious internal injury, but it does not show any external symptoms. It is cast with a slashing motion, and it sends out zigzagging purple flames.
Notes: Shortly after Hermione used the silencing charm on Dolohov, he cast this spell at her just by mouthing the words. The spell grazed her cheek, massively injuring but not killing her. It is implied in the text that the spell's effect may have been weakened by Dolohov's inability to say the incantation. However, Dolohov later regained the use of his voice and used the spell non-verbally again, so it is possible the spell is designed to be non-verbal. It seems to be related to Sectumsempra, but with internal damage.
Aparecium
Pronunciation: ah-pah-REE-see-um
Description: This spell makes invisible ink and perhaps invisible items in general appearance.
Seen/Mentioned: First used in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, when Hermione Granger tries to make any hidden writing appear in Tom Marvolo Riddle's diary.
Notes: See also Specialis Revelio.
(Arresto Momentum)
Pronunciation: ah-RES-to mo-MEN-tum
Description: A falling person/object is slowed.
Avada Kedavra (The Killing Curse)
Pronunciation: ah-VAH-dah keh-DAH-vrah
Description: One of the three "Unforgivable Curses". Causes instant death, and leaves no physical signs of cause of death. It cannot be blocked by magical means, although the spell can be blocked by physical cover (which will be heavily damaged in the process), and the caster is still required to aim to hit the target. This spell produces a jet or flash of green light; just before it hits the target, a rushing sound (similar to an oncoming high-speed object) is heard. It is unknown whether it is painless or not.
B
(Banishing Charm)
Description: The opposite of the Summoning Charm. It causes the targeted object to be thrown away from the caster, but it requires good aim.
Notes: The students in the Charms lesson used it as they talked with each other; it is possible the spell is non-verbal.
Notes (2): See Waddiwasi.
Notes (3): Supposedly non-verbal. When used in charms they just use a swish motion on their pillows.
(Bat-Bogey Hex)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Causes "bogies" (British slang for nasal mucus, also known as "boogers" in the US) to turn into bats and attack the victim.
Notes: This may also be the "Curse of the Bogies" mentioned by Ron in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone as a potential punishment should either Hermione Granger or Neville Longbottom get him and Harry in trouble. However, "bogy" also means a monster or a spectre, so it might simply be referring to that.
(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.
C
Carpe Retractum
Pronunciation: Kar Pey Ritraktom
Description: Similar to Accio but instead of pulling an object, wall, etc., one pulls oneself to the object.
(Cheering Charm)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Causes the person whom the spell was cast upon to become happy and contented, though heavy-handedness with the spell may cause the person to break into an uncontrollable laughing fit.

Description: This spell will magically lock a door, preventing it from being opened.
Notes: The Death Eaters opened the door with Alohomora.
(Color-Change Charm)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Changes an object's color.
Notes: Used in Harry's Ordinary Wizarding Levels in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix and possibly in Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone by Hermione Granger to make the words Potter for President flash in different colors.
(Concealment Charm)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Used to conceal something.
Confundus Charm
Pronunciation: Cun-fund-dis
Description: The Confundus Charm is a confusion spell.
(Conjunctivitus Curse)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: A curse that affects the victim's eyesight and vision.
Notes: Presumably, the common name derived from the disease of that name, more commonly known as "pink eye" or "caterpillar eye" due to its scabby inflammation.
Crucio (The Cruciatus Curse)
Pronunciation: kɹusio (or with the middle 'c' pronounced as in classical Latin kɹukio)
Description: Inflicts great pain on the recipient of the curse. One of the three "Unforgivable Curses".
(Cushioning Charm)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Creates an invisible cushioned area. Used primarily in broomstick manufacturing.

Pronunciation: denz-OW-gay-oh /dɛnzau'geo or den-SAW-jee-oh
Description: This charm makes the victim's teeth grow rapidly.
Diffindo (Severing Charm)
Pronunciation: dif-FIN-doh
Description: Tears the target, or a specific area on the target.
Dissendium
Pronunciation: dis-SEND-ee-um (IPA: /dɪ.'sɛn.di.əm/)
Description: Causes the statue of the humphbacked witch hiding the secret passage to Honeydukes to open up.
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 Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince). 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.
(Disillusionment Charm)
Pronunciation: Unkown
Description: Causes the target to become able to change colour to match their background, effectively hiding them without making them invisible.
Notes: When Disillusioned, the target feels something cold and wet trickling down their back. Likewise, when the charm is lifted, the target feels something hot trickling down their back.
[edit] (Drought Charm)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Dries up a limited amount of water.
(Dumbledore's Charm)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Likely an extremely powerful charm, seeing as the force of it ruffled Harry's hair as it passed and also, Voldemort was forced to protect himself.
Notes: Caused Voldemort to have to conjure a shield to protect himself. Directly after its use Voldemort comments on how Dumbledore is not trying to kill him. When asked about it, J.K Rowling was not inclined to comment.
(Dumbledore's Jinx)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: The jinx causes a streak of silver light and a bang like a gunshot. This will knock out foes for several minutes.
E
Engorgio (Engorgement Charm)
Pronunciation: en-GOR-jee-oh (IPA: /ɪn.'gɔɹ.dʒi.əʊ/)
Description: Makes things grow larger.
[edit] (Enlarging Spell)
Pronunciation: Unknown.
Description: Expands the interior of objects, while maintaining their exterior size.
Ennervate
Pronunciation: ee-NUR-vayt
Description: An "awakening" spell. Also brings someone out of unconsciousness.
Notes: Can be used to counter the effects of the Stupefy spell. Also sometimes referred to in the book as "Rennervate".
Episkey
Pronunciation: eh-PIS-key /ɛpɪ'ski/
Description: Used to heal relatively minor injuries.
Notes: J. K. Rowling writes in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince that Harry's knowledge tells him this spell could belong to a family (or variety) of Healing Spells, in the same way a species of plants belongs to a larger genus.
Evanesco (Vanishing Spell)
Pronunciation: eh-van-ES-koh or ee-vah-NESS-koh
Description: Makes something vanish.
Notes: In Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Bill Weasley uses the spell to cause some scrolls belonging to the Order of the Phoenix to vanish. Presumably, objects banished this way can be made to reappear, as Bill probably expected to recover the scrolls later. The incantation most likely to be used to get the object back is the incantation Inanimatus Conjurus. This is suggested in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.
Expecto Patronum (Patronus Charm)
Pronunciation: ek-SPEC-to pah-TRONE-um
Description: The Patronus Charm is a defensive spell, used to conjure an incarnation of the Witch's or Wizard's innermost positive emotions, to act as a protector. It can also be used to send messages.
Notes: In the Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban video game, this spell is the only magic that works against the Dementors, and it is one of Harry's two unique spells.
Notes(2): All Patroni take the form of animals, usually some animal special to the caster. For instance, Harry Potter's Patronus is a stag {Harry's father, James Potter, was an Animagus, who transformed into a stag) while Hermione Grangers is apperently an otter . Also, the form of one's Patronus can change when the caster is put under stress.
Expelliarmus (Disarming Charm)
Pronunciation: ex-pel-lee-AHR-mus
Description: This spell is used to disarm another wizard, typically by causing the victim's wand to fly out of reach. It also throws the wizard backwards a few feet when enough power is placed behind it. As demonstrated in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, simultaneous use of this spell by multiple witches or wizards on a single person can throw the wizard back more powerfully.
Notes: When duelling in the Prisoner of Azkaban video game, Expelliarmus can be used as a shield, much like the Protego charm. When used in the Chamber of Secrets video game, it can make a spell backfire. It is referenced in the Doctor Who episode "The Shakespeare Code" as the final word in a speech by William Shakespeare to banish a Carrionite invasion.
F
(False Memory Charm )
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Implants a false memory in the mind of the target.
Ferula
Pronunciation: fair-OO-lah
Description: Creates a bandage and a splint.
(Fidelius Charm)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: This complex charm enables secret information to be hidden within the soul of the recipient, known as a Secret-Keeper. The information is then irretrievable until and unless the Secret-Keeper chooses to reveal it; not even those who have the secret revealed to them can reveal it to others.
Notes: J. K. Rowling has stated that when a Secret-Keeper dies the secret they held can never be revealed to anyone else; the people who were told about the secret before the Secret-Keeper's death will still know the secret, but they will still be unable to reveal the secret to other people even after the death of the Secret-Keeper
Notes (2): The Fidelius Charm seems to have no effect with regard to animals, as Hedwig found Ron and Hermione in the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (unless she was told by Dumbledore somehow).
Finite Incantatem/Finite (Counter-Spell)
Pronunciation: fi-NEE-tay in-can-TAH-tem
Description: Negates spells or the effects of spells.
Notes: This spell can obviously not be used to counteract the effects of the Avada Kedavra curse, as that would involve bringing back the dead. In the Chamber of Secrets movie, Hermione uses it to blow up the "rogue Bludger" sent by Dobby from attacking Harry. The word "Incantatem" was thought to have only been used in the movies but on page #192 of "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" Snape uses it during duelling club.
Flagrate
Pronunciation: flag-RAH-tay or FLAG-rayt
Description: With this spell, the caster's wand can leave fiery marks.
(Flame-Freezing Charm)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Causes fire to become harmless to those caught in it, creating only a gentle, tickling sensation instead of burns.
Notes: This may have been the spell used by Albus Dumbledore in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince to seemingly set fire to Tom Riddle's old wardrobe whilst causing no physical damage. It may also be the protection in the Floo network, as well as how people communicate through fireplaces.
(Flying Charm)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Apparently the spell cast on broomsticks to make them fly.
Notes: Draco Malfoy mentioned this spell when tauntingly asking Ron Weasley why would anyone cast a Flying Spell on Ron's broomstick which he deems a "mouldy old log" in the fifth book during Ron's first Quidditch practice. It is also mentioned in Quidditch Through the Ages.
(Freezing Charm)
Pronunciation: Immobulus [im-mo-byu-luss]
Description: Freezes objects.
Furnunculus
Pronunciation: fur-NUNG-kyoo-lus (IPA: [fɝɹ.'nʌ©¯.kju.ˌlɪs])
Description: Makes boils appear on the victim.
G
Glacius (Freezing Charm)
Pronunciation: gla^-shee-us
Description:[/b] Emits a wave of cold air that freezes anything or anyone it touches.
Notes: This spell is used in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban video game by Harry. It was also threatened on Argus Filch's cat, Mrs. Norris in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone.
H
(Hair-Thickening Charm)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Thickens one's hair.
(Healing Spell)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Spell used to heal deep gashes. It is described as being song-like.
(Hex Deflection)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Deflects spells. It seems to be similar to a Shield Charm, although deflection does not cause the spell to rebound on the attacker.
(Homorphus Charm)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Causes an Animagus or transfigured object to reassume its normal shape.
(Horcrux Spell)
Pronunciation: Unknown
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.
(Horton-Keitch Braking Charm)
Prounciation: Unknown
Description: This spell was first used on the Comet 140 to prevent players to overshoot the goal posts or fly off-sides.
(Hot Air Charm)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Causes wand to emit hot air.
Notes: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince suggests that the Hot Air Charm can be nonverbal, and only requires a complicated wand movement to be cast successfully.
(Hover Charm)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Causes an object to hover in the air, and be directed through the air.
Notes: Harry was wrongfuly blamed of having cast this spell by the Ministry of Magic.
(Hurling Hex)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Causes brooms to vibrate violently in the air and try to buck their rider off.

In addition, Dolores Umbridge used this spell on the centaurs in the forest. Also seen (non-canonically) in the Harry Potter Trading Card Game.
Incendio

Description: Produces fire (or as it is usually described, blue flames).

Notes: It has been said by Rowling that Peeves is a Poltergeist, and, since these are corporeal, in her own words: how else could he chew gum or cause mischief? Thus Peeves is corporeal; presumably the spell can only be used on entities with physical speech apparatus (thus, not on ghosts).
(Leeks of the Ear)
Description: Makes leeks sprout out of a persons ears.
Legilimens (Legilimency Spell)
Pronunciation: Leg-IL-im-ens
Description: Allows the caster to delve into the mind of the victim, allowing the caster to see memories and emotions.
Levicorpus
Pronunciation: Lev-i-CORE-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).
Liberacorpus
Pronunciation: LEE-bear-a-CORE-pus
Description: Counteracts Levicorpus.
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 irreversable unless the actual counter-curse was used.
Locomotor
Pronunciation: LOW-co-MOW-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.
Locomotor Mortis (Leg-Locker Curse)
Pronunciation: LOW-co-MOW-tor MORE-tis
Description: Locks the legs together, preventing the victim from moving the legs in any fashion.
Notes: It is unclear whether or how this spell is related to the Locomotor spells mentioned above. 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 in a state of rigor mortis. There is a possibility that Draco had pointed his wand at Neville and the curse 'locked' his legs together.
Notes (2): In the Philosopher's Stone video game, the spell is used to stun enemies for a short period of time, while in the Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets video game, the spell is used by the Prefects and Percy Weasley if caught sneaking around at night. In the game, it can be blocked by Expelliarmus.
Lumos
Pronunciation: LOO-moss
Description: Creates a narrow beam of light that shines from the wand's tip, like a torch.
Notes: opposite incantation, Nox, puts the light out
Lumos Maxima
Pronunciation: LOO-moss MAX-i-mar
Description: As above, but more powerful.
(Lupin's Light)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: A small, handheld flame.
M
Mobiliarbus
Pronunciation: Mow-BILL-ee-ARE-bus
Description: Moves a tree. An unusually specific use.
Mobilicorpus
Pronunciation: Mow-BILL-i-CORE-pus
Description: Levitates and moves bodies.
(Morfin Gaunt's Spell)
Pronunciation: Unknown; only demonstrated use is non-verbal
Description: The spell causes the victim to painfully exude large quantities of yellow pus, probably resulting from the opening of a lesion.
Morsmordre
Pronunciation: Mors-MORE-dreh
Description: Conjures the Dark Mark.
Notes: A possible translation might be "take a bite out of death" — a fitting phrase for Death Eaters. Oddly, Morsmordre could be translated as "mother's murderers" in Norwegian, which does not make sense to the series, as Lord Voldemort, and at least one of his followers, murdered their fathers, but no mention is given of any of the Death Eaters murdering their mothers, although it could also refer to Voldemort himself, who at the time of his first downfall murdered Lily Potter, the mother of Harry Potter, or that his mother died while giving birth to him.
Muffliato
Pronunciation: Muff-lee-AH-toe
Description: This spell fills peoples' ears with an unidentifiable buzzing, to keep them from hearing nearby conversations.
(Muggle Repelling Jinx)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Keeps Muggles away from wizarding places, by causing them to remember important meetings they missed and to cause the Muggles in question to forget what they were doing.
N
(Narcissa Malfoy's Spell)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Causes pain to anyone touching the caster of the spell.
Notes: This spell seems to be a combination of a Stinging Hex and Relashio.
Nox
Pronunciation: Noks
Description: Turns off the light produced by the Lumos spell.
O
(Obliteration Charm)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Removes footprints.
Notes: The above instance in book five only reveals that the Obliteration Charm can remove footprints. There is no explanation as to what effect this has on other things. Possibly destroys things according to name.
Obliviate (Memory Charm)
Pronunciation: oh-BLIV-ee-ate or o-bliv-ee-AH-tay
Description: Used to hide a memory of a particular event.
Notes: The Ministry of Magic employees assigned to modifying the memories of Muggles are called Obliviators. The charm can be broken by powerful magic, or extreme duress, as Lord Voldemort was able to torture Bertha Jorkins into remembering details that Barty Crouch Sr had forced her to forget using the charm.
Oppugno
Pronunciation: oh-PUG-no
Description: Apparently causes animals or beings of lesser intelligence to attack.
Orchideous
Pronunciation: or-KID-ee-us
Description: Makes a bouquet of flowers appear out of the caster's wand.
P
Pack
Pronunciation: As in English /pæk/
Description: Packs a trunk, or perhaps any luggage.
Notes: The neatness of the packing seems to depend on the desire and ability of the caster.
Notes (2): It may be that "pack" is not the actual incantation, and that Tonks was finishing her sentence while performing a non-verbal spell.
(Permanent Sticking Charm)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Makes object permanently stay in place.
Notes: This might be the Epoximise spell used in the Trading Card game, which sticks objects in place with a strong adhesive.
Peskipiksi Pesternomi
Pronunciation: "Pesky pixie, pester no me!" /ˈpɛskiˌpɪksi ˌpɛstɹ̩ˈnoʊmi/
Description: Apparently causes Pixies to leave or at least desist from mischief-making.
Notes: Lockhart confessed to being very poor (perhaps almost at *Squib level) in most magical areas, and seems to have been willing to go to any length to make himself appear more competent. Hence, Peskipiksi Pesternomi may have been made up on the spot as a desperate attempt to control the situation. Alternatively, knowing that he would need the Pixie Banishing Hex since his reputation would require knowing it, he may have looked it up beforehand. In that case, he would be incorrectly remembering a Latin phrase that would perhaps be Pestis Piksi vexe neme, or something similar.
Petrificus Totalus (Full Body Bind)
Pronunciation: puh-TRIH-fuh-cus TOH-tle-us (or toh-TAH-lus, depending upon the caster's preference; the spell achieves the same effect either way)
Description: Used to temporarily make the victim be frozen in a position much like a soldier at attention; usually the person falls down.
Point Me (Four-Point Spell)
Pronunciation: As in English /'pɔɪnt 'mi/
Description: The Four-Point Spell causes the caster's wand tip to point to the north cardinal point, acting like a compass.
Portus
Pronunciation: POUR-tuss
Description: Turns an object into a Portkey, a device which transports the toucher to a desired destination, with a blue glow.
Prior Incantato
Pronunciation: PRI-or In-can-TAH-toe
Description: Makes a shadowy image of the effect of the last spell cast by a wand emerge from its tip. This is called an "echo" of the spell.
Notes: The nature of the "echo" depends on the original spell. The echo of a conjuring spell, for example, is the object conjured. However, the echo of the Cruciatus curse is the screaming of the victim; the echo of an Avada Kedavra curse is the image of its victim.
Notes (2): When two wands that share the same magical core are forced to engage in battle, a continuing reverse spell effect called Priori Incantatem takes place. This effect is seen during Harry's battle with Lord Voldemort at the end of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.
(Protean Charm)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Causes copies of an object to be remotely affected by changes made to the original.
Notes: In Hermione's casting, when the date changes the coin becomes hot, alerting the owner to look at the Galleon. This may not be a feature of the original charm.
Protego (Shield Charm)
Pronunciation: Pro-TAY-go
Description: The Shield Charm causes minor to moderate jinxes, curses, and hexes to rebound upon the attacker.
Notes: In Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Lord Voldemort conjured a shield out of midair to defend himself against an attack by Professor Dumbledore. This may have been a variant of Protego. The original description of this spell states that it rebounds minor jinxes to the caster. However, it is shown in the books that it can also be used to reflect or lessen the effects of more powerful spells, depending on the skill of the caster.
Periculum (Red Sparks)
Pronunciation: In the books, no incantation is given, but in the fourth movie, Periculum (PER-ick-YOU-lum) is used.
Description: Shoots out red sparks out of the wizard's or witch's Wand.
Q
Quietus
Pronunciation: Quee-AY-tuss
Description: Makes a magically magnified voice return to normal. A counter to Sonorus.
Notes: It is conjectural whether Quietus could be used alone to magically quiet a person's voice, or only counteracts Sonorus.
R
Reducio
Pronunciation: Red-DUE-see-oh
Description: Makes an enlarged object smaller. Counter-charm to Engorgio.
Notes: whether Reducio could also be used by itself rather than countering Engorgio is unknown. If it could, it would shrink normal sized items into miniature versions of themselves. References in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets by Arthur Weasley to "shrinking door keys" make this seem likely.
Reducto (Reductor Curse)
Pronunciation: Re-DUCK-toe (IPA: [ɹɛ.'dʌk.təʊ])
Description: Blows apart or destroys objects in the caster's path. It is inferred from the books that this curse is usually invisible and silent, though it was used verbally in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.
(Refilling Charm)
Pronunciation: Unknown (This spell has a possibility of being a Transfiguration spell [Harry turns air into mead])
Description: Refills whatever the caster points at with the drink originally in the container (eg fills a keg with the desired ale).
Relashio
Pronunciation: Re-LASH-ee-oh
Description: A charm used to force someone or something to release that which it holds or grapples by means of shooting fiery sparks out or, underwater, shooting hot bursts of water.
Rennervate
Pronunciation: ree-NUR-vayt
Description: Appears to rouse an unconscious person.
Reparo
Pronunciation: Re-PAR-oh
Description: Used to repair objects.
Rictusempra
Pronunciation: RIK-too-SEM-pra
Description: Makes an enemy collapse in laughter.
Riddikulus (Boggart-Banishing Spell)
Pronunciation: Ri-DIK-uh-lous
Description: A spell used when fighting a Boggart, "Riddikulus" forces the Boggart to take the appearance of an object the caster finds humorous, with the desire that laughter will weaken the Boggart.
S
Scourgify (Scouring Charm)
Pronunciation: Uncertain; probably SKOW-UR-ji-fy or SKUR-ji-fy
Description: Used to clean something.
Sectumsempra
Pronunciation: SEC-tum-SEMP-ra
Description: A spell that creates a gash on the subject the way the wand is moved. Invented by the Half-Blood Prince (Severus Snape.)
Serpensortia
Pronunciation: SER-pen-SORT-ia
Description: Conjures a serpent from the spellcaster's wand.
Silencio (Silencing Charm)
Pronunciation: si'lɛnsiˌo
Description: Makes something silent.
(Slug-Vomiting Curse)
Pronunciation: Unknown. There was no incantation at all in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, in which Ron merely yelled, "You'll pay for that one, Malfoy!" before pointing his wand. It is not known if it has an incantation (in which case it would have been non-verbally cast), or if it has no incantation at all. It is apparently "a difficult curse to work at the best of times". A person cursed with it has to wait until it wears off. The corresponding film apparently used the phrase "eat slugs!" as the incantation, though this may simply have been bravado on Ron's part.
Description: A jet of green light strikes the victim, who then vomits slugs.
Sonorus
Pronunciation: so'noɹəs
Description: Magnifies the spellcaster's voice.
Notes: The counter-spell is Quietus.
Specialis Revelio (Scarpin's Revelaspell)
Pronunciation: speh-see-AH-liss reh-VEH-lee-oh or reh-VAY-lee-oh
Description: Apparently causes an object to show its hidden secrets or magical properties.
(Stealth Sensoring Spell)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Detects those under magical disguise.
(Stinging Hex)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Produces a stinging sensation in the victim.
(Stretching Jinx)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Stretches things.
Stupefy (Stunning Spell)
Pronunciation: ST(Y)OO-peh-fye
Description: Puts the victim in an unconscious state.
(Switching Spell)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: According to the Harry Potter Trading Card Game, it is supposed to switch two objects' places. Harry contemplates using this spell against his dragon in the first task of the Triwizard Tournament. Also, in the same book, before the Beauxbatons and Durmstrang students arrive, Neville Longbottom accidentally puts his ears onto a cactus in Transfiguration. McGonagall yells, in response to this, "Longbottom, kindly do not reveal that you can't even perform a simple Switching Spell in front of anyone from Durmstrang!" Since no parts of the cactus seemed to be exchanged with the ears, it is possible that the Spell may "transplant" as opposed to "switch"; of course, it could just be Neville's own faulty spell. In the first book, Hermione mentions in chapter 9 that if Harry and Ron go to duel Malfoy in the trophy, they will lose all the points she got from Professor McGonagall from "knowing about Switching Spells", meaning they are addressed as early as the first year.
T
Tarantallegra
Pronunciation: Ta-RAN-ta-LEG-rah
Description: Makes victim's legs dance uncontrollably (recalling the tarantella dance).
Tergeo (Siphoning Charm)
Pronunciation: TUR-jee-oh
Description: A spell used to clean liquid from a surface.
(Toenail Growth Hex)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Causes the toenails to grow at an extreme and uncontrollable rate.
(Transmogrifian Torture)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: According to Gilderoy Lockhart, a killing curse with a counter-curse which he knows.
(Trip Jinx)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Once used, makes the object or target of the wand trip.
U
(Unplottable Charm)
Pronunciation: Unknown
Description: Used to make buildings or locations unable to be plotted on a map
V
(Lord Voldemort's Shield)
Pronounciation: Unknown
Description: Used in the book, "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" by Lord Voldemort, in the chapter "The Only One He Ever Feared". It has a shiny silver appearance. Voldemort used it to protect himself from Dumbledore's spell which made the hair on the back of Harry's neck stand up. When hit with the spell, it produced a gonglike sound so it might just be a metal shield that Voldemort conjured.
W
Waddiwasi
Pronunciation: WAD-ee-WAH-see
Description: Appears to launch small objects through the air.
Wingardium Leviosa (Levitation Charm)
Pronunciation: Win-GUARD-ee-um Le-vee-OH-sah
Description: Levitates objects.
