I really don't get the hype.
I do read them actually...and with good reason too,they're great. Obviously,a non-reader will think their childish or silly but really they aren't. They belong to the most enjoying books I've read and that's quite something for a series that's allready 6 books long.J.K. Rowling is a great writer and when even Stephen King says that you 'created the best make-believe villain since Hannibal Lecter..'..something's quite allright,I should say. Even after 6 books,Rowling is still able to interest,mislead and surprise the reader,which sounds suspicious of well-written books to me.I'm not saying people have to like them,not at all. But please do not think this is writing on the level of Sesame Street or silly American-written comics (which tend to suck).By the way,it's allways nice to read people's comments to things they know nothing about and this particular thread is full of them.
I don't know what are hard words for you so I can't say too much about that.Some of the spells might be a bit difficult but most of them sound quite cool'expelliarmus'- to disarmour someone'protego'- to cast a protective shield'expecto patronum'- to conjure positive energy in the form of an animal that will knock out nasty enemies'tarantellegra'- to make someone's legs do an unstoppable dance 'avada kedavra'- the killing spell (one out of three Unforgivable Spells)stuff like that. It's quite fun.
