HARRY POTTER GUIDE.
21. Spells: Charms
A Charm, also known as an Enchantment, is a spell that adds certain properties to an object or individual. Charms are distinguished from transfigurations in that a charm adds or changes properties of an object; it focuses on altering what the object does as opposed to what the object is. For example, the Colour Change Charm causes something to flash different colours; the Levitation Charm causes an object to levitate, the Cheering Charm improves upon a creature's mood. An object that has a lasting charm placed on it is called bewitched, though charms, in general, appear to last longer than other spells.
