Perhaps the truth is somewhere in the middle.  She could have found a
chapter in a book somewhere entitled "Moving Charms".  It outlined the
basic theory and contained a long list of examples.  She glanced
through it learning all the obvious ones.  "Mobiliarbus" would be an
obvious one for someone knowing latin, would it not?  I don't know
latin so I wouldn't know.  :)

When youre learning to program, upon looking up a command, you might
see something like this:

Printf function:

Printf(expression)

I daresay that magic may be somewhat similar. As long as you know the
basic syntax, you can use the different commands for different
situations.

Movement Charm:

mobili-latin root 

Summoning Charm

accio object to be summoned

If you know the syntax, you simply replace the part in quotes with an
appropriate word. It seems illogical that you cant do magic except
with strict charms. It has to be more flexible than that. That would be
like learning chemistry using only common nomenclature instead of
systemized IUPAC. Just my thoughts.
