Harry Potter Etymology | Levitation Charm (“Wingardium Leviosa”)

Wingardium is a composite word, based on: English to wing meaning “to fly” (e.g. the plane winged skywards); arduus (meaning “high, tall, lofty, steep, proudly elevated”) or arduum (meaning “steep place, the steep”); and the common Latin ending -ium. Leviosa probably derives from Latin levo, meaning to “raise, lift up”, or levis, meaning light (of weight). Altogether, therefore, the incantation could best be read as “lift up high”.

FINALLY watching my favorite Disney Movie (and probably favorite movie all around), Beauty and the Beast! Here are some random facts from IMdB:

• Chip originally had only one line, but the producers liked Bradley Pierce’s voice so much that extra dialogue and business was written and storyboarded for the character.
• The last phrase of Cogsworth’s line “Flowers, chocolates, promises you don’t intend to keep… ” was ad-libbed by David Ogden Stiers.
• Julie Andrews was considered for the role of Mrs. Potts.
• Songs take up twenty-five minutes of the film and only five minutes were without any musical score at all.
• The majority of the sculptures seen in the castle are different earlier versions of the Beast.
