If there is a spell name, magical word or any other word relating to Harry Potter that you wish to know the origin of i can tell you exactly what it means or originates from.

The Conjunctivus Curse, or somethin like that, the one Krum used on the Dragon in GOF.

yeah partially but there's more to it..Aramaic phrase that means "may it be destroyed." Also similar to "Abracadabra", which is an ancient spell (dates from the second century) used by conjurors to invoke spirits or supernatural powers for protection against disease or aid.

REPORTED.

N.B.: Most of the names, while Latin in form or derived from Latin, are not themselves Latin. Much of it simply doesn't make sense in a Latin context.
