"Counter-Jinx is a name wizards give their spells to make them sound more friendly."
Wilbert Slinkhard on counter-jinxes

A Counter-Jinx is a type of counter-spell that inhibits jinxes. It differs from an Anti-Jinx in that an anti-jinx is intended to prevent those effects rather than remove them.

Wilbert Slinkhard said that the term "counter-jinx" was a misnomer, implying that they were intended with just as much harm as the spells they countered, though Hermione Granger disagreed with this assessment.
