→Cast a Spell: Grammar check
You only provoke [[SRD:Attack of Opportunity|attacks of opportunity]] when you begin casting a spell, even though you might continue casting for at least one full [[SRD:Round|round]]. While casting a spell, you don’t threaten any squares around you.
This action is otherwise identical to the [[SRD:Standard Actions#Cast a Spell|cast a spell ]] action described under [[SRD:Standard Actions|Standard Actions]].
=====Casting a Metamagic Spell=====
[[SRD:Sorcerer|Sorcerer]]s and [[SRD:Bard|bard]]s must take more time to cast a metamagic spell (one enhanced by a metamagic [[SRD:Feats|feat]]) than a regular spell. If a spell’s normal casting time is 1 [[SRD:Standard Actions|standard action]], casting a metamagic version of the spell is a full-round action for a [[SRD:Sorcerer|sorcerer]] or [[SRD:Bard|bard]]. Note that this isn’t the same as a spell with a 1-round casting time—the time — the spell takes effect in the same [[SRD:Round|round]] that you begin casting, and you aren’t required to continue the invocations, gestures, and concentration until your next turn. For spells with a longer casting time, it takes an extra full-round action to cast the metamagic spell.
[[SRD:Cleric|Cleric]]s must take more time to spontaneously cast a metamagic version of a ''cure ''or ''inflict ''spell. Spontaneously casting a metamagic version of a spell with a casting time of 1 [[SRD:Standard Actions|standard action]] is a full-round action, and spells with longer casting times take an extra full-round action to cast.
