Clarification On Terminology

[Mrs.) Lee Storm (God Is The Healing Force]

Hi Folks,

I'm posting this to the Canon list as well as the Chatter list so, if the
elves feel we should take it off the main we can discuss further on the
chat.

My question is regarding certain terms used and where/how they can be
defined.

First, let's try "wizard" and "warlock".  For the most part, people are
referred to as witches or wizards, but then the term warlock pops up and I'm
at a loss as to what distinguishes a wizard from a warlock or visa versa.

The second conundrum is "charm" and "spell.  They seem to be
interchangeable, but I'm not altogether sure.  And, things like the Reducto
"curse" which sounds like it could be just a super-shrinking spell...etc.

Can someone with a really logical head enlighten or clarify the mud of
confusion in which I wallow?  Please?

Thanks,
Lee :-)
