***3rd year Transfiguration***
"Wecome to Transfiguration! I'm Prof. Ready, your teacher!"
Here you learn spells that change things into something else."

    We have mentioned before about the barriers, and now we will go over them. A reminder: There are two main categories in which you may transform an item, inanimate objects and animate objects. For example, how would you turn a candle (Xawloki) into a rabbit ( Ichba )? After all, both are not inanimate! There are certain suffixes you add after the first half of the word to allow the items to change in these situations. To go from inanimate to animate, the inbetween phase is strup ; while going from animate to inanimate, it is gaffeul . Now try to figure out what the spell is for turning a rabbit into a candle. How about for turning a candle into a rabbit? Just make sure you take the beginning item’s phrase, add either strup or gaffeul , and then the end product's phrase.

Assignment :
1) Strup is said when what?
2) Gaffeul is said when what?
3) What would be the phrase to turn a cat into a candle?
4) What do you think happens to the animate creature's soul?
5) What is the barrier for transforming humans?
