turn right

phraseA1Not compared — the two pools are counted one word at a time, so a phrase has no score

To turn right is to change direction towards your other side. The mirror image of turning left.

Together the two cover almost every set of directions ever given. In Britain turning right means crossing the oncoming traffic, which is why it is the turn that needs a gap, and in countries that drive on the right it is the easy one. There is a political sense too, since a party that turns right has moved towards conservative positions, and turning left means the opposite.
