no incantation given
Aside from the fact that it is a spell to defend the caster, little is known about the actual effects produced by this spell.
- Fulbert the Fearful died in 1097 when the Defensive Charm he cast to protect himself backfired. (fw20)
"deleterius" L. detroy, eradicate
Erases the ghost images of spells revealed by the Priori Incantatem spell. Possibly can be used to remove other spell effects as well.

"dens" L. tooth + "augeo" L. grow
Curse which causes the victim's teeth to enlarge grotesquely.

Spell that cuts something open.
- Harry uses this spell on Cedric's book bag to slow him down so Harry could tell him about the dragons (GF9)

See APPARITION
"disillusion" Eng. to lose faith
A charm which hides the true, magical nature of something.
- Hippogriffs and Winged Horses may be kept by Wizards as long as they perform a Disillusionment Charm on them regularly so that Muggles won't notice anything strange about them. (FB)
uncertain: "dissocio" L. to sever or divide? Possibly similar in sound to "descend."
Comments
from Amanda in email:
"Dissocio"
in its verb form means "to part" or "to seperate" the word "en" can mean
both "here!" and "look!" Dium, of course, refers to the sun and normally
translates as "day" or "today" but I have seen it used as a command to
mean "now." So together dissendium could mean "part/separate here, now!"
Opens the secret door in the statue of the humped witch.
- Harry learns this word from the Marauder's Map. It is said aloud while the statue is tapped with the caster's wand (PA10)
no incantation used
Sends a jet of sparks out of the wand which opens a door.
- Lupin used this spell to open the door of the staff room wardrobe, which contained a Boggart his class was to fight with. (PA
no incantation given
Dries up water.
