indeed magic can be used without words, mostly simple spells, its something you learn in charms class<br/><br/>at 6th year i'd expect an avg student to be able to do the follwing spells without verbals:<br/><br/>Lumos (light)<br/>Wingardium Leviosa (light- moderate telekenetic lifting)<br/>any simple charms<br/><br/><br/><br/>remember even spells without verbals are forbidden outside of class.. dont get caught! :)
