"a local radio station here in wausau, wi had some Potter trivia for

It had everyone stumped, but one person was close. The only 1 in 
question was the killing curse translation. Does it not mean "let 
the thing be destroyed"? th eanswer was actaully something 
like "disappear like this word"

Scott:
And if the radio station said Avada Kedavra was latin then perhaps 
they should be corrected. (on air?)



Marc again:
immediately after hearing the answers on the air, I did call the radio
station, but they did not play my correction on the air. I did consult the
Lexicon before calling, but I was not sure if it did in fact had a Latin
version.

thanks,
Marc
