I have to say my favorite word would be marauder....it sounds so adventurous and daring, like you could do anything and not get caught. I also like the word auror. It goes with its description and sounds awesome.

My favourite word hmmm. I think prehaps Oddment. When Dumbledore in the Philosphers stone.

" Nitwit, blubber, Oddment and Tweak."

I think Oddment is so well err. Odd.

And it's like a random word like bannanas. It's just so strange but likeable. Oddment - I wont get that out of my head for a few days now.

But the one i seemed to say outload quite a bit is Avada Kedavra.

I like how they call kissing - snogging! That always cracks me up, it's such a funny word! But my favorite wizard related word is probably Crucio! It's fun to say. My cousin and I always have fake duels with Unforgiveable Curses.

Ok, this one was haard to pick. So i stuck with the coolest one in my opinion: serpentsorcia: the spell that malfoy used for summoning the snake against harry in chamber of secrets! ive always love that word!

probably i'll choose sectumsempra, not because of the word itself but because what the information it provided. here, i got to know how deep the knowledge of snape was about the dark arts and yet he knew how to reverse the curse. in this case he knew how to heal the wound and it was with some melodious sound, a side of him that was rarely known to us. also draco before harry cast that spell was also in a very emotional state of which was also rare side of him.

I would have to say my fave wizarding word is Avada Kedavra, it just sounds cool and thats why I like it, it's like abbracadabra, has a nice ring to it.

Quidditch is a very cool work, I also love the name of the town Budley Babatton it has such a ring to it. I also think the word Omniocular's is cool, and I love the name, Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore... and [spoiler*]Albus Severus Potter!!![/spoiler]

i'd have 2 say that my favorite wizarding word wood have 2 b Veritaserum...funny right. i luv the idea of having a potion that could make people tell the truth.

Hmm.. my favorite word is actually a name of a wizard, Sirius Black my second favorite would probally be accio

I would have to say that my favorite word is nargle, with a close second being the "Crumple-Horned Snorkack," or the "Blibbering Humdinger." Actually, my favorite words generally tend to be various "animal species" announced by Luna.

My NEW favorite wizarding word (it changes about once a week) would have to be Quibbler. I like the idea of the magazine, plus it's pretty funny to say, isn't it?

I really like the words ashwinder and thestral.
I don`t know why, but I think they are cool.

My favorite word is accio, the magic spell. Iassociate the word with the spell, and I think of every use I could give it... Awesome! I would accio everything to my hands all day long!!!
My second favorite would possibly be Wingardium Leviosa. Hovering everything, even my cat would me pretty cool... Hahaha!
Third favorite: Gryffindor... Where does JKR get her ideas? She's bloody brilliant!!!

My favourite words would probably be anything that Luna comes out with, because you can guarantee they're going to be hilarious! I also quite like Dumbledore, because it just has a nice ring to it. Expeliarmius (Sorry about my spelling!) isn't bad either.

man this is a hard but good one theres so many id like to put a phrase down but its a word so ill go with ... SPATTERGROIT haha that made me laugh so much we the portarit int he hospital diagonsed ron with it haha

My favorite wizarding words are Riddikulus and Expecto Patronum, Accio and Avada Kevadera. It's kind of funny, but I Work in a hospital and I like to talk Harry Potter there. Some people think I am nutty, but oh well! It's better than having a case of Spattergroit!
oh and a note to padfootx3: My DH is from England and snogging is actually a word they use there!!!!!

Oh, I love to say HP words with my kids. I have a 2 year old and a 4 year old, and we always say wizarding words. My two year old loves Expecto Patronum, he says that all the time. I like Levio Corpus, Accio, Alohomora, Stupify, Expecto Patronum, and Protego. We use a lot more words that the kids like to use, but those are my favorites.

I love a lot of them except fo the unforgivable curses.
I use stuoefy when playing with my son...

There's something truly magical about the word "wingardium leviosa"...I wonder how on earth Rowling managed to think up of it...I loved in the first film when Ron used it. It's my favourite wizarding word...either that or "Harry Potter"

Ha! Very true. I prefer talking Harry Potter to many things.



Well, leviosa is clearly a varation on levitate. I can only assume the wing part might be because flying birds use their wings. I agree that it is a decent spell.

As for me, the name for the potion amortentia has an allure for me. Just listen to it. Ah-more-ten-she-ah. It is just rolling and beautiful.

I don't have one word that is my real favourite, but there are a few I like a lot. First is Diagon Alley and Hogwarts. These words are not weird or something, but they are very easy to remember and sound nice. Spells are also very good in the books. Avada Kedavra and Cruciatus are very powerful words, I think their great. These are the bad spells. The good/less bad spells I think are brilliant are: Wingardium Leviosa, Expelliarmus, Expecto Patronum and Petrificus Totalus. And Muggle is also great. I can keep going on for a long time, but I think I've said enough now

I love it when the magical words play on words... for example, Knockturn Ally -- nocturnally Diagon Alley -- diagonally. My favourite magical words have to be Felix Felicitas, Muggle and spattergroit. They just roll off the tongue!

I really like the word depulseo! I like it because I like the word pulse and it's in the HP books so it all fits! Plus I'm quite agressive so you can say it with anger! YAY

Hmm I would have to say that my fav word is; ButterBeer. It makes me think of hot Beer and butter, to me, thats a very interesting combination lol. After that it would have to be Levicorpus, it just sounds pretty cool in my opinion!

I would have to say that my favourite HP word would have to be Riddikulus as it just rolls off my tongue!
Then Spattergroit as it is quite a funny word...I have to agree with tonks-13 about butterbeer,its really a cool combination!!
After those two it would have to be accio as it is quick and to the point and I just wish life could be easier when we could summon things!!

Mimbulus Mimbletonia!
this is indeed my favorite word!
actually, when i visited harry potter site in scholastic,
there's this pronunciation guide for selected words in the book!
and i simply love the way mimbulus mimbletonia was pronounced!

hope you'll visit the site as well..
scholastic.com\harrypotter

I would have to say that my favorite wizarding word is animagus. i like it cause it is so unique and while we know the meaning it has no meaning in the real world...I LOVE IT!!!

CRUCIO...IMPERIO...AVADA KEDAVRA It is not may folt that they are dark spells,they sound so awsome.
p.s-I think that they would be mine most common used spells

I kinda like 'Muffliato' , 'Silencio' and 'Impedimenta' the most.They don't just sound great, but also do awesome things. And, aren't the names of the teachers brilliant,just as well???I mean, Filius Flitwick and Rubeus Hagrid do sound SOOO good.

The name Filius is simply great. It is really fun to say and to think. Rubeus makes me think of a large roast beef sandwhich. It always has. I don't know why. Maybe that is why I like Hagrid so much.

Curiously, I am not overly fond of the name Bilius (Ron's middle name). You would think that I would considering I like the name Filius and they are so close.

My favourite wizarding words would have to be; Quidditch because it just sounds like an interesting word, Hogwarts because if you didn't know about the HP world it would sound pretty gross, Hufflepuff because it's just a funny word and I have to agree that Spattergroit is pretty funny. One of my favourite character names is Augustus Pye. I don't know why, it just sounds funny.

~Lauren

My favorite Wizarding Words are quddich hogwarts wand invisibility cloak Bertie Botts every flavor bean and most importantly i love the words Merlin s Most Shaggy pants

I'd go for Mimbulus Mimbletonia! Ofcourse there are plenty of others as well. Merlin's beard is one, and I find Dementors interesting as well.

I have a couple more words to add to my list I posted a couple days ago. I don't know why I'm so interested in this topic, I think the holiday break is getting to me. Anyway...

-Quaffle
-Voldy (a name, but still. )
-Petrificus Totalus
-Aguamenti

There's more but I'm sure you don't want to read my favourite words for an hour. I agree with Jenzy Black; Mimbulus Mimbletonia is a funny one!

~Lauren

Dunno 'bout you, but I love all words said by Luna Lovegood. I mean, come on, Nargles? Crumple Horned Snorkaks? Heliopaths? Really those are great.

lol I think 'muggle' is also a weird word [haven't seen it posted before, just too lazy to check al the pages.. ]

I love the names she gives witches and wizards! Adalbert Waffling, Newt Scamander, Bathilda Bagshot, Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore, Augustus Pye, Dudders ... she has such an imagination!

I love the word quaffle - it makes me think of a fat squashy armchair, but since it has no relevance whatsoever, I don't know why! And I like horcrux - it really suits what it is, cos I think it sounds really dark and mysterious! And all the Luna things - nargles, wrackspurts, crumple-horned snorcack, blibbering humdinger! I also like dementor - very similar to the actual real word, but I still think it's good!

Nitwit! Blubber! Oddment! Tweak! i guess its not magic but it was hilarious when i read it the first time. it just came out of nowhere and was just really unexpected.

i also liked in DH george saying "i feel holey". that was probably my most favorite part in the "hole" series. and yes the pun is intended.

Ooohhh, there's just so many. It's hard to pick. I think my favorites would have to be Dobby, Dumbledore, Thestrals, and veritaserum! The last one may be a wee bit prejudiced on my part, but it's really fun to say! VER-IT-TAS-EE-ER-UM. Heeheehee.

My favorite word has to be Baslisk. It sounds soooo different. And whenever I hear the word Batholith in Science now I can only think of Harry Potter. It's so fun to say!


This isn't from the books but from the GoF movie, "Babbling band of bumbling baboons" that is sooooooo fun to say! I get everyone at school all mixed up trying to say it.




Potters Princess

My favorite is "Wingardium Leviosa" [because] when my youngest son was 18-months old, we were watching Sorcerer's Stone A LOT and he started going around with anything that would "point" (pencil, ruler, wand, golf club) saying "Gardum OH-sa!" as loud as he could while pointing whatever was in his hand at you. It was quite cute. (I think he picked up on Hermione explaining it was Levi-OH-sa not levio-SAH)

I especially liked JKR's choice of names, namely the ones for the Dark wizards. I love how all the Black's have names of stars, I like all the Malfoy's names (Lucius, Narcissa, Draco and Scorpius) and I really like Bellatrix and Dolohov.

Mod Edit: Hi! We don't allow netspeak such as 'b/c' for 'because'. Please type out words in full. Thanks!

Purple Pygmy Puff. Don't ask me why, I just liked the sound of it. When it was first introduced in OotP, I could only think of those words, and how funny they sounded. I like all the words that have anything to do with Weasleys' Wizard Weezes - even the name of the shop itself. I also liked the Marauders' names.

My two favourite words are just a little bit opposed- Pigmy Puff and Sectumsempra.
Pigmy Puffs sound really sweet and funny and Sectumsempra is so cool and evil, it sounds way more evil than Avada Kedavra, at least in my opinion...

I really like Pygmie Puff, Bludger, mimbulus mimbletonia, and Crucio, it sounds cool.

My favorite wizarding word would have to be...Ridikkulous (spelling?), ever since Professor Lupin introduced it in GoF, I use it. I'm in the military, so you can imagine the times I get to use this great word, mainly because most of the people making the decisions are ridiculous.
When I say ridiculous, they look at me, I just look back and say, "what, you are ridiculous."


House:Ravenclaw
Wand:12" Unicorn Hair Willow
Patronus:Unicorn
Animangus:Werewolf

...nitwit, oddment, blubber, tweak!

...the first time i read that in the book, i'm like "uhm, what? what's with this old man.." and now DD's one of my fave characters..

...i also like sectumsempra and the names are all interesting.. that's it, so far.. oh, and veritaserum too.

There are so many wizarding words i like..i think they're brilliant.

-cornish pixies.. it sounds really cute to me..
-Episkey- sounds really weird and funny.
-Azkaban- it's just original.
-Hogwarts- very witchy.
-Buckbeak/Hippogriff...so sweet..
-dungbomb

and too many to mention.

QUiDDiTCH

HOGWARTS

HORCRUXES

AMORTENTiA

VERiTASERUM

AZKABAN

DEMENTORS

My favourite wizarding words are :

'Puffskein' (the little creature mentioned in Fantastic Beasts). I think it's great sounding, especially when you say it over and over!

'Locomotor Mortis' (the spell)

'Buckbeak'

'Gurdyroot'

And...

'Crumple-Horned Snorkack'

Haha, I really have to say that my favorite word of the Harry Potter books is BIllywig! (Like the stinger in "my wand") It is a funny word and Ilove sayin it. I also like the word's Hocrux and Longbottum!
