تجرأ على الكلام
It is an idiom and you shouldn't translate it word by word...just put the meaning of it. To break the spell is to have the will and courage to say somethig that you have been postponing for a while abd others are waiting for you to say it. (EX: She finally broke the spell and told me that she loves me!)
