This spell literally packs a person's trunk for them – the neatness of the "packing" seems to be dependent upon the caster's experience. Nymphadora Tonks performs the spell, once with the word "Pack" and again with just a flick of the wand but says her mother is far better at this sort of household spell. It may be that "pack" is not the actual incantation, and that Tonks was finishing her sentence while performing a non-verbal spell.
Causes Pixies to leave or at least desist. Mispronounced by Gilderoy Lockhart as "Peskipiksi pesternomi" in CoS. The correct charm might be something like Latin "Pestifer Piksi Vexe Neme" = English "Noxious pixie, pester no one."
However, due to Lockhart's nature, Peskipiksi pesternomi may be entirely made up. When pronounced phonetically, it could be said as "Pesky Pixie, pester no me", something that Lockhart may have made up on the spot as a desperate attempt to control the situation.
The full Body Bind Curse. This spell is used to temporarily make the victim be frozen in a position much like a soldier at attention, and usually the person falls down. "Petrificus" comes from the Latin word "petra", meaning "stone"; "totalus" comes from the Latin word "tota", meaning "whole, full". First used in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone by Hermione, who was trying to prevent Neville from stopping her, Ron, and Harry from leaving the common room to hunt for the Philosopher's Stone. Harry uses it on Antonin Dolohov twice in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. Draco Malfoy uses it on Harry to freeze him while he hid under his invisibility cloak on the train in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. Dumbledore also uses it nonverbally, or a spell very much like it, on Harry in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince to stop him from interfering in his conversation with Draco Malfoy (Battle of Hogwarts).
The Four-Point Spell causes the caster's wand tip to point to the north cardinal point, acting like a compass. It only points north. This handy navigation spell was used by Harry during the third task of the Triwizard Tournament in GoF and was discovered by Hermione Granger.
The spell which turns an object into a Portkey, a device which transports the toucher to a desired destination. Latin portus means doorway. Used by Dumbledore in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. Portkeys were first seen in GoF as a means of transport for Harry, Hermione, and the Weasleys to and from the Quidditch World Cup.
Latin for "previous incantation". 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. 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, while the echo of an Avada Kedavra curse is the corpse of its victim.
When two wands that share the same magical core are forced to engage in battle, a more powerful reverse spell effect called Priori Incantatem takes place – that is, the plural of Priori Incantato. One of the wands will be forced by the other to gradually regurgitate shadows of all the spells it has cast, in reverse chronological order. The echos themselves are stronger as well. For example, the echo of the Avada Kedavra curse is not just an image of a corpse, but a temporary ghost-like representation of the victim which is capable of at least limited communication with living beings present.
The Shield Charm causes minor jinxes to rebound upon the attacker. Latin protego means "I cover". Used in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix by Harry against Snape's Legilimens spell, which enabled Harry to read Snape's mind for a moment and in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince when Harry verbally uses it to deflect Snape's spell. Possibly a different version of this spell was used by Voldemort to conjure a shield out of midair.
