Words for " power trip ".

As you've probably noticed, words for " power trip " are listed above. Hopefully the generated list of words for " power trip " above suit your needs. If not, you might want to check out Related Words - another project of mine which uses a different technique (not though that it works best with single words, not phrases).

About Reverse Dictionary

The way Reverse Dictionary works is pretty simple. It simply looks through tonnes of dictionary definitions and grabs the ones that most closely match your search query. For example, if you type something like "longing for a time in the past", then the engine will return "nostalgia". The engine has indexed several million definitions so far, and at this stage it's starting to give consistently good results (though it may return weird results sometimes). It acts a lot like a thesaurus except that it allows you to search with a definition, rather than a single word. So in a sense, this tool is a "search engine for words", or a sentence to word converter.

I made this tool after working on Related Words which is a very similar tool, except it uses a bunch of algorithms and multiple databases to find similar words to a search query. That project is closer to a thesaurus in the sense that it returns synonyms for a word (or short phrase) query, but it also returns many broadly related words that aren't included in thesauri. So this project, Reverse Dictionary, is meant to go hand-in-hand with Related Words to act as a word-finding and brainstorming toolset. For those interested, I also developed Describing Words which helps you find adjectives and interesting descriptors for things (e.g. waves, sunsets, trees, etc.).

In case you didn't notice, you can click on words in the search results and you'll be presented with the definition of that word (if available). The definitions are sourced from the famous and open-source WordNet database, so a huge thanks to the many contributors for creating such an awesome free resource.

Special thanks to the contributors of the open-source code that was used in this project: Elastic Search , @HubSpot , WordNet , and @mongodb .

Popular Slang Searches

Slang for power trip.

As you've probably noticed, the slang synonyms for " power trip " are listed above. Note that due to the nature of the algorithm, some results returned by your query may only be concepts, ideas or words that are related to " power trip " (perhaps tenuously). This is simply due to the way the search algorithm works.

You might also have noticed that many of the synonyms or related slang words are racist/sexist/offensive/downright appalling - that's mostly thanks to the lovely community over at Urban Dictionary (not affiliated with Urban Thesaurus). Urban Thesaurus crawls the web and collects millions of different slang terms, many of which come from UD and turn out to be really terrible and insensitive (this is the nature of urban slang, I suppose). Hopefully the related words and synonyms for " power trip " are a little tamer than average.

The Urban Thesaurus was created by indexing millions of different slang terms which are defined on sites like Urban Dictionary . These indexes are then used to find usage correlations between slang terms. The official Urban Dictionary API is used to show the hover-definitions. Note that this thesaurus is not in any way affiliated with Urban Dictionary.

Due to the way the algorithm works, the thesaurus gives you mostly related slang words, rather than exact synonyms. The higher the terms are in the list, the more likely that they're relevant to the word or phrase that you searched for. The search algorithm handles phrases and strings of words quite well, so for example if you want words that are related to lol and rofl you can type in lol rofl and it should give you a pile of related slang terms. Or you might try boyfriend or girlfriend to get words that can mean either one of these (e.g. bae ). Please also note that due to the nature of the internet (and especially UD), there will often be many terrible and offensive terms in the results.

There is still lots of work to be done to get this slang thesaurus to give consistently good results, but I think it's at the stage where it could be useful to people, which is why I released it.

Last night, Rishi Sunak and Sir Keir Starmer went head-to-head in the first televised debate of the general election campaign.

An initial snap poll, published by YouGov after the clash, had suggested Mr Sunak narrowly came out on top - with 51% of the audience believing he fared better than Sir Keir.

However, another published this morning had a different result.

Researchers at Savanta found Sir Keir Starmer beat Rishi Sunak by 44% to 39%.

Savanta said Sir Keir outperformed Mr Sunak on NHS and public services 63% to 25%, on the economy 52% to 36%, and defence and security 43% to 41%.

Pollsters at the firm also found Sir Keir "came across as most honest" 54% to 29% for Mr Sunak, and that the Labour leader "remained the calmest" 51% to 36% for the Conservative prime minister.

Chris Hopkins, Savanta political research director, said in a statement: "Presentationally, it felt like the prime minister had the upper hand at times - in particular towards the end of the debate - and although our figures suggest he lost narrowly, he probably still outperformed expectations."

Jonathan Ashworth has accused Rishi Sunak of spouting "desperate lies" in last night's debate, after the prime minister pointed to a "black hole" in Labour's spending plans.

Mr Ashworth, the shadow paymaster general, says Mr Sunak made claims that are "categorically untrue".

This relates to Mr Sunak's claim that Labour has a £38.5bn black hole over four years, which would force the party to hike taxes substantially. 

The frontbencher says: "I think last night, what was exposed was just how desperate Rishi Sunak has become, because he lied about Labour's tax plans.

"What he said last night about Labour's tax plans is categorically untrue. Labour will not put up income tax, not put up national insurance, will not put up VAT.

"And I think what we showed last night with Rishi Sunak, what we saw last night was just how desperate he becomes.

"What desperate people do, is they lie."

Tax and the economy

Mr Sunak claimed Labour's plans for the country were not costed and would require tax rises of £2,000. He pointed to the Conservatives bringing inflation down, cutting NI and his pledge to cut taxes for pensioners through the "triple lock plus" as reasons why people should vote for him.

Sir Keir said Mr Sunak's £2,000 claim was "absolute garbage" and his plans were fully costed. He pointed out the tax burden had risen to the highest level in 70 years under the Tories and used Mr Sunak's vast personal wealth to suggest he did not understand the cost of living crisis.

Mr Sunak was groaned and laughed at for claiming waiting lists were coming down and blaming industrial action on the backlog.

Sir Keir pointed to Labour's plans to create 40,000 new appointments while bigging up his credentials as the husband of an NHS worker.

When Mr Sunak claimed "waiting lists are coming down", Sir Keir responded: "They were 7.2 million, they're now 7.5 million. He says they are coming down and this is the guy who says he's good at maths."

Mr Sunak said parents who "work hard" should be allowed to send their children to private schools, in an attack on Labour's VAT policy to tax private schools.

Sir Keir said that one of Labour's first steps would be to recruit 6,500 teachers to fill gaps, and he "will get rid of the tax break on private schools to pay for it, that's a tough choice, I do understand that".

Immigration

Mr Sunak offered his strongest suggestion yet that he could be willing to leave the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) if the government's stalled Rwanda deportation plan remains blocked by the courts, but said flights should be taking off in July.

Sir Keir said the UK risked becoming a "pariah" state if it left international conventions and pointed to his plan to target criminal people-smuggling gangs to stop small boat crossings.

Mr Sunak defended his decision to water down policies designed to help the UK reach net zero carbon emissions, saying the targets would still be met, it would cost households less, and the UK's energy security would be maintained.

Sir Keir said there was a "huge opportunity" in the renewable energy sphere that would see cheaper bills, energy security for the UK, and more jobs. He said he would deliver clean power by 2030, despite scaling back the initial investment he intended to put forward to get there.

Closing statements

Rishi Sunak appealed to voters wavering between the Tories and Reform UK in his closing statement at the ITV debate.

He said: "Either Keir Starmer or I will be your prime minister and a vote for anyone else makes it more likely that it will be him."

He also told voters "you don't know what you'd get" if they chose Labour.

While in his closing argument, Sir Keir said: "I don't offer you the gimmicks or unfunded promises that Rishi Sunak does.

"I don't pretend there's a magic wand that will fix everything overnight. Instead, I offer a practical common sense plan to change Britain."

On 12 June, Sky News will host an election leaders' event in Grimsby - a key marginal seat and one of our Target Towns this election year.

Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer and the Conservative leader Rishi Sunak have been invited to attend, and we are looking for a live audience to join us on the night.

If you would like to be part of this studio audience, and be given the opportunity to ask a question to one of the party leaders, please complete the short questionnaire in this link .

By Faye Brown , political reporter

Sir Keir Starmer said it was "garbage" to claim he would raise taxes by £2,000 as he traded blows with Rishi Sunak in their heated first TV debate.

The Labour leader initially failed to challenge the prime minister's repeated accusations that Labour's spending plans would cost each family £2,000.

He eventually called it "nonsense" and "absolute garbage", saying his pledge to invest in green projects would result in cheaper energy bills.

Labour said the figure is based on misleading information put out in a "dodgy Tory dossier" and called on Mr Sunak to correct the record.

You can read more from Sky News below:

General election campaigning is to take a back seat for a couple of days, as commemorations for the 80th anniversary of D-Day begin.

The leaders' differences on the economy, immigration and the NHS, which were brought to light during the first debate of the campaign last night, will be put to one side as the Normandy landings are remembered.

Both Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer will attend the UK's national commemoration event in Portsmouth alongside members of the Royal Family and armed forces veterans today.

Liberal Democrat leader Sir Ed Davey and Reform UK's Nigel Farage will also be in attendance.

Tomorrow, attention will then turn across the Channel for further anniversary events in Normandy.

The sombre proceedings follow a heated showdown on ITV in which Sir Keir rejected Mr Sunak's claim that he would hike taxes by £2,000 as "absolute garbage", branding the attack line as "nonsense" after the prime minister deployed it repeatedly.

In his opening pitch to voters, Mr Sunak sought to draw dividing lines with his rival as he claimed Sir Keir would "raid" pension pots and raise taxes on families.

Meanwhile, the Labour leader questioned the timing of the election, accusing Mr Sunak of calling a summer polling day because he "knows" inflation and energy prices will take a turn for the worse later in the year.

Good morning!

We're in the midst of the second full week of the tooth-and-nail fight for all 650 parliamentary seats - and the keys to Number 10.

Political parties are spreading out across the country to get their message out ahead of polling day on 4 July.

Here's what you need to know as campaigning continues today:

• Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and the Conservatives aren't on the campaign trail today, but we're still expecting to hear from the party leader at a D-Day event in Portsmouth;
• Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer and shadow foreign secretary David Lammy will also be in attendance, as the UK prepares to mark 80 years since the Normandy landings on Thursday;
• Despite the pause in active campaigning to mark the anniversary, Labour has today proposed new legislation to establish an Armed Forces Commissioner - and "strengthen the rights of veterans";
• Both Liberal Democrat leader Sir Ed Davey and Reform UK 's Nigel Farage will also be in Portsmouth today;
• Sir Ed will continue his election campaign in Hampshire this afternoon;
• Scottish Labour and the SNP will also be out on the campaign trail, with Anas Sarwar expected to visit a food poverty charity in Glasgow West;
• Away from the general election campaign, Welsh First Minister Vaughan Gething will face a motion of no confidence tabled by the Welsh Conservatives at around 4pm;
• And fall out will likely continue after the first televised debate of the election took place overnight.

We'll be discussing all of this and more with:

• Labour's Jonathan Ashworth at 7.10am;
• Keith Brown , deputy leader of the SNP, at 8.15am.

Stick with us for all the latest political news throughout the day.

Thank you for joining us for live coverage of the general election campaign today - and updates and analysis throughout the first TV debate between the two men vying for the keys to No 10.
