The Disenchantment Charm[1] (Surgito) was a counter-charm that could be used to remove an enchantment.[2]
History[]
In 1927, Newt Scamander used this spell to lift a powerful love enchantment that was placed on Jacob Kowalski by his fiancee Queenie Goldstein. As a result of the spell, Kowalski awoke from the dreamlike enchanted state, and regained an awareness of reality in the present.[2]

Etymology[]
Surgito is a Latin word in the imperative form meaning "you/he/she shall arise, or get up",[4] and is a conjugation of the verb surgo ("I arise").[5] The etymology is appropriate, considering that the effects of the spell on Jacob Kowalski can be likened to waking up from a confused, dreamlike state.
