SPELLS, CHARMS, AND CURSES
A spell is a form of magic that is performed by speaking a specific incantation, often accompanied by specific movements of the wand. These incantations and wand movements are used to achieve a specific effect, such as levitation, teleportation, or the creation of fire. Spells are a central aspect of the wizarding world and are used by witches and wizards to accomplish various tasks.
