A Nonverbal Spell is a spell which is performed without saying the incantation out loud. Performing spells nonverbally is very difficult and requires a good deal of practice, as it requires concentration and mental discipline alone. Most wizarding schools start teaching nonverbal magic to students in their sixth year. Your adversary has no warning about what kind of magic you are about to perform, which gives you a split-second advantage. Some spells, such as Levicorpus, are easier to perform nonverbally than others. Most spells, however, seem to be less effective than normal when the incantation is not said.
