  1. Make definitions for suffixed forms of words easier to find.

    Hi there. I love powerthesaurus! Use it all the time and am very grateful for it, but I have a suggestion. Often, when I go to look at the definition of a word, if the word is in an extended form, with -ed or -ing or -ingly, etc added to the end, the definition often just tells me to go to the root word for the definition. I.e. the definition for "panted" just says "of Pant".

    And my suggestion is that I think it'd be very handy if that word "Pant" in "of Pant" was clickable, or if the definition…

  2. Develop a new Word Bank Feature

    While the existing features are great and helpful, things like pinning words, or favorite search terms, for me as a writer I find the capability to create my own custom word bank extremely intriguing. Here's an example to help you see what I'm envisioning. I search for exaggerate, I discover an idiom I really like 'blow out of proportion', then I select a heart icon to save it to my word bank. This would be a phenomenal feature, it may only require a simple plug-in, similar to many food blogs' custom favorites recipe box. Of course, this is just a…

  3. Love Power Thesaurus! Here's a potentially game changing idea...

    Hi! I love the product and being a Pro user. Here's a revolutionary idea:

    What if there was a way to select multiple results and get a result from that MIX of words, instead of a result from just one word.

    For instance: Today, if I'm looking for a word to describe an easy process, I'd search the word "easy" and find results like "simple", etc...

    But what if I could select the word "simple" and the word "painless" and the word "direct", then Power Thesaurus could make a suggestion based on ALL 3 of those words: For example, "straightforward"…

  4. remove misogynistic language

    Under the definition for "amenable" there is a result provided by the Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary that says "Easy to be led; governable, as a woman by her husband." Please remove this language as it perpetuates misogynistic beliefs.

  8. Enable multiple words per-line view for "view all" pages

    I like the new interface that displays words in blocks with multiple words on each line. Currently when you press "view all" for the synonym/antonym blocks it goes back to your traditional one-word per line format. Multiple words per line is the way to go, much easier to sort through the words and find the one you want.

  9. Please enable personal emails and passwords for logins. At present you seem to only enable login by Facebook, Twitter and Google.

    Minimize the use of Facebook, Twitter and even Google. All promote statist tyranny be it a fascist or socialist variant. When you support them you are behaving as Lenin predicted: "The capitalist will sell you the rope with which you will hang him."

  10. Search for words that are closer to X or Y quickly

    There is a popular site that asks you yes/no questions to guess a person you were thinking of in their large database of people ranging from actors to animation cartoon characters to famous scientists.

    The way their database works is through a specialized binary search algorithm which takes your yes/no/not sure answers and narrows down the person you were thinking of. (Every time you answer yes/no ~50% of the characters are eliminated making the search very quick).

    The idea is this: Be able to search for words that are at the tip of your tongue by answering whether it is…

  12. search select text

    I think it would be great we are able to automatically search for a selected word when press the shortcut to search in the web extension. What I mean is, if I've selected a word and then when I use the shortcut to active the search on power thesaurus it automatically fill the input with the selected word.

  16. Could we have synonyms sorted by definition? Similar to MS word's thesaurus?

    I can't give my example because it's NSFW, but I wanted "distasteful things to call a woman" not "gripe" or bodyparts.

  19. Help to understand how strong a word is

    It would be really useful to know how synonyms are sorted in their "seriousness". Sometimes I'm just not sure if the word is too strong or too weak to use.

    Having some system (labels, numbers) to know would help.

    For example, I would arrange from weakest to strongest:

    Sympathize > Like > Adore > Admire > Love

    Chilly > Spooky > Worrisome > Scary > Dreadful

  20. Choose An (X) Amount of Words To Share Lists

    What if there was a way to choose two (or potentially more) words and share their lists? For example, if I chose the word "Plan", and I want to find something that rhymes with "Plan", but is also a synonym, antonym, etc. of the second word, i.e "Man".
