• In the Harry Potter novel series, the spell X is known as the Killing Curse. During
an audience interview at the Edinburgh Book Festival on 15 April 2004, series
author J. K. Rowling had this to say about the fictional Killing Curse's etymology:
"Does anyone know where X came from? It is an ancient spell in Aramaic, and it is
the original of Y, which means 'let the thing be destroyed.' Originally, it was used to
cure illness and the 'thing' was the illness, but I decided to make it the 'thing' as in
the person standing in front of me. I take a lot of liberties with things like that. I
twist them round and make them mine.“
