"I know. Many of you are thinking 'but it's spelled with a v, not a w! Why is it pronounced like that?' Well, in Latin, the v is actually pronounced as a w; thus, ad-weck-siss. Everyone, say it with me. Advexis."

Twilight had been making notes so she had only been listening since she was so busy writing. She looked up and the softly repeated to herself 'ad-weck-siss' several times so that she would say it correctly. Then she said it several times outloud.

Now that that was done, he refocused his attention on the entire class and said, "Well, shall we give this a try? In order to perform the charm, you simply point at the stuck item and say the incantation. For those of you who have yet to be stuck, you may either move to a seat that has glue on it, or you may ask me for some glue. I have plenty."

He motioned toward his desk, which was now covered in glue bottles. "So, go ahead and try out the charm. Unstick yourselves!"

"May I have some glue Professor?" asked Twilight.
