To Cast a Spell, Try Spelling [Dabbing with a Mage episode 166]
Spell is defined by the Oxford Dictionary as such: "Verb: Mean or have a result." So to cast a spell one is attempting to have results develop. One of the easiest ways to conduct this action is to resort to none other than Spelling in and of itself! Join me in today's episode as I go into further detail about how Spelling can act as a way to cast a spell.

Good question, @belfastshaman.
Language is extremely fluid, consisting of many working parts. Etymology is just one of these portions of understanding language. So when recognizing a word, I find it important to pay attention to not only the etymology but also it's evolved usage and varied meanings. Thank you for bringing up the etymology!

Great Post with Great Information.
