Welcome, my fellow Muggles to the recent 20th anniversary JK Rowling’s masterpiece in the world of witchcraft and wizardry. Here am I waiting for a letter from Hogwarts for years and years but to no avail. Hopefully my article will reach to the Headmaster of Hogwarts and he will be intrigued by it and offers me a student placement. In celebration of the boy who lived, here are the Forgotten Spells Fans May Not Know In The Magical World of Harry Potter, aside from the common Expelliarmus, Stupefy and Avada Kedavra. If you want to learn more spells, such as black magick spells, there’s a resource online for that.
1. Aqua Eructo

Summons and creates waves of water right from the edge of the wand, transforming into various forms from fountains to powerful jets of water. It was seen during the battle between Dumbledore and You-Know-Who in the Order of the Phoenix.
2. Aresto Momentum
SourceThis could come in handy in our Muggle life as the spell slows down the velocity of a moving target indicates that a force of strength is supported against a moving object, preventing it from hitting hard on the ground or a particular surface. Dumbledore used the spell to save Harry after being interfered by Dementors during a Quidditch match.
3. Partis Temporus
SourceCreates a barrier of magical protective gap to counter and evade any curses for a short period of time as used by Dumbledore to ward off the flames in order to escape in The Half Blood Prince.
4. Periculum

5. Piertotum Locomotor
Source“I have always wanted to use this spell” as McGonagall smirks in the Deathly Hallows Part 2 as it is used as an activation spell to summon the statues and knights of Hogwarts to fend off against the Death Eaters.
6. Morsmordre

8. Oculus Reparo
SourceRepairs eyeglasses. One of the many first spells casted during their younger days. Hermione’s favourite spell on Harry.
9. Episkey
SourceCasted by Loony Lov… sorry Luna Lovegood to heal minor injuries especially broken bones.
10. Riddikulus
SourceA cast used to countering the Boggart in Professor Lupin’s lesson, turning fears into the most humorous and ridiculous possible way such as the turning of Snape to grandma’s outfit.
