How's your Latin? or Spanish at least?
"SECTUP" sounds like "to diSECT" like what macabre biology teachers
get students to do with frogs .... so that part is "to CUT"
"SEMPRA" sounds like "siempre" in Spanish. That means "ALWAYS".
So the curse used against James may have been "SECTUP", but
not "SECTUPSEMPRA" causing multiple cuts like Draco got.
