Biggest Increase in Usage from Previous Week
- Colombia (>250%)... had their elections, with the winner being Gustavo Petro
- Juneteenth (>175%)... the US federal holiday on June 19th that commemorates the emancipation of enslaved African Americans (it moved from newly emerging last week to biggest increase this week)
- Gustavo (~175%)... As in Gustavo Petro, see above
- electors (>125%)... related to the testimony at the January 6th committee hearings of Trump's push for "fake" electors
- leftist (>125%)... different contexts, but mainly driven by the adjective describing Colombia's newly elected president, Gustavo Petro, who is very leftist and promising sweeping change
Most Used Terms
Note that these "Most Used" terms tend to be used very broadly, in lots of contexts... vs. the other "Emerging" and "Biggest Usage Increase" terms which are, as you can tell, quite narrow and likely more meaningful/interesting.
