Standard Book of Spells, Grade 2
The spells:
Aparecium - Pronounced with the stress falling on the (e), this spell works only on invisible ink by making it become visible for anyone who reads it. The target needs to be tapped a few times on different spots while doing it, for example, the caster has to tap a page on all four angles.
Bat-Bogey Hex - A hex that engorges the targeted person's bogeys to bat-size, makes them fly and attack the target's face and neck. It needs to be targeted carefully because the effects of a misfire can be very nasty. Its incantation is "Berriculus".
Disarming Spell - The incantation for this spell is well known throughout the wizarding world, it is Expelliarmus, with the stress falling on the 'ar'. If properly aimed, it would cause an opponent's weapon (usually wand) to fly out of their hand, thus leaving them with no means to attack. It is popular as one of the most useful spells ever created and is a usual opener in duels.
Evanesco - The other name of this spell is "Vanishing Spell" because of its main effect. It makes any object perish completely, not rendering it invisible, but getting rid of it "for good".The stress in the incantation falls on 'es'. In order for the spell to be successful, the caster needs to carefully point at the exact object he wants to make vanish and imagine it gone while saying the word.
Feather-light spell - This spell makes the object it is cast at weigh practically nothing and therefore very easy to carry. It usually lasts for as long as a counter spell isn't cast,but if the caster is too distracted or harmed in any way, the object gains back its weight. The incantation is "Agitabilo"
Freezing Charm - As its name suggests, this charm 'cools off' rather nicely any object it is directed at. It is very useful for taming down fire and even sometimes in healing people. Its incantation is "Conglacio".
Leg-locker Curse - This curse basically binds the victim's legs together, impeding them from walking. Its incantation is "Locomotor Mortis", with the stress falling on 'mo' and 'mor'; very useful in duels and for making a quick escape.
Protego - "Pro-tay-go" is its incantation. This spell creates an invisible shield that blocks any hex directed at its caster for a certain period of time. Depending on the caster's abilities it can last for longer and be stronger. It is a very widely used,though not very powerful protective spell.
Reparo - This spell repairs (undoes damage done to) any object it has been directed at. The person needs to point their wand or tap the object and pronounce "re-par-oh" stressing on the 'par'.
Rictusempra - Rictusempra is considered a charm; it causes a person to feel a tickling sensation in different parts of their body and ergo start laughing uncontrollably. It is very useful for breaking an opponent's focus in a duel. The incantation is pronounced "rik-tu-sem-prah" with the accent falling on 'sem'.
Scourgify - Simply put, this spell cleans up the object to which it is directed. Aim is important, as well as the intonation while saying the incantation, the person needs to really order the object to get cleaned.
Stinging Hex - This is a rather low-powered hex; it causes a strong and brisk stinging sensation in the victim, in the area hit. It needs to be directed very well since its asset is mostly that it can make a person lose their concentration. The incantation is "Mordeo".
Tarantallegra - A useful though not very strong spell which causes the victim's legs to start dancing uncontrollably. The incantation is said "tair-an-tuh-leg-ruh" where the accent is on 'tair' and 'leg'.
