This study proposes a methodology for the automated detection and analysis of power words in persuasive text using a custom lexicon created from a comprehensive dataset scraped from online sources. A specialized Python package, The Text Monger, is created and employed to identify the presence and frequency of power words within a given text. By analyzing diverse datasets, including fictional excerpts, speeches, and marketing materials,the aim is to classify and assess the impact of power words on sentiment and reader engagement.
