<p>Haha omg I have to tell you guys, some of the SAT words I know I remember because of Harry Potter…</p>
<p>like “impervius” (which means deflecting, I think) like when Harry does the Impervius spell so that water wouldn’t get on his glasses when it rained during the Quidditch match</p>
<p>and “ennervate” … mwahahaha</p>
<p>impervious is like unable to sink in. i think
enervate is to weaken</p>
<p>Yeah enervate makes no sense in HP because it’s the unstunning spell…yet it’s to weaken…</p>
<p>Maybe it means to weaken the stunning spell? I wonder if Protego means anything. I can only think of protagonist.</p>
