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.

I relinquish my responsibility of self-defense to the state.
3b : to give over possession or control of : yield — few leaders willingly relinquish power.
«Relinquish.» Merriam-Webster.com. Merriam-Webster, n.d. Web. 19 Aug. 2018.
Delegate tends to imply that you have the authority to insist that the delegatee accepts the delegation. It’s an offer they can’t refuse.
Entrust focuses on the recipient and the thing recieved. This is slightly awkward here because it wouldn’t then be self-defense, would it?
Relinquish focuses on the turning over or giving up. I think it works better in this particular case.
Forgo also has the correct sense, but you can’t forgo something to some one.
Forsake suggests a totality of abandonment that probably isn’t wanted here.
If you take the position that the state legislates the rules and is the one who decides where the responsibility lay, the entire sentence is a bit off. It is the state that causes you to forgo this responsibility. But this can be a matter of degree, and if you are electing to take the fullest advantage of their protection, I think you are choosing to relinquish what discretionary responsibility exists.
