There's definitely some mix-n-match between Japanese and American names.
An (effect) indicates modification of the effect just above it.
A Spell-# indicates Spell, Spell 2, Spell 3, etc, up to #. Newer English translations keep the Japanese convention of Spell, Spellra, Spellga, and sometimes Spellja.
A Spell* on an attack spell indicates it damages your party as well.
A .Spell indicates not standard magic - see game notes above.
A [Spell] made an appearance in the plot, but was not castable.
