Are These Harry Potter Spells Or Just Gibberish?

_Waddiwasi_ allows you to shoot a small, soft object at a target. Lupin used this spell to shoot a piece of gum at Peeves the Poltergeist in _Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban_. Squishy!

It's a spell!

It's just gibberish!

_Scourgify_ is actually a household charm used to clean objects. Nymphadora Tonk's used it in _Harry Potter and the Order of the Pheonix_ to clean out Hedwig's cage. Neat!

_Snufflifors_ is used to transfigure objects into mice. Precious!

Just random words smashed together. Silliness!

I was just in the mood for some ambrosia, that's all. Wowzers!

_Spongify_ is a softening charm. Professor Flitwick mentions teaching it to his Charms class in _Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone_. Cushiony!

_Orchideous_ is a transfiguration spell that conjures flowers from the end of a wand. Olivander used it to test Fleur Delacour's wand before the Triwizard Tournament. Delightful!

_Bombarda Maxima_ is an explosive spell capable of knocking down walls. Dolores Umbridge uses it to knock down a wall in the _Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix_ movie. Bombastic!

Well...sort of. It's used as the counter-curse to the Jelly-Legs Jinx in _A Very Potter Sequel_, but it's not canon to the _Harry Potter_ series. Bonkers!

Oh dear. It looks like you have a lot more studying to do. You practically destroyed the entire room during your exam with your haywire spells! Hit the books then try again.

You failed your O.W.L. exams

You were able to cast a decent number of spells correctly, but you're going to have to do better than that if you want to pass your O.W.L.s! Study up and see if you do better next time.

You should hit the spell books

You really know your spells! Either you studied hard, or you're an incredibly gifted witch or wizard. You definitely have a bright future ahead of you!

You passed your O.W.L. exams
