Control + Backspace deletes entire words rather than individual characters

Control + Arrows also moves your text cursor by whole words. Combine it with shift and you can easily select a bunch of text without the mouse.

Another one that took me far too long to learn: Shift + Tab will do the same thing as tab (next element) in reverse

Also shift+pos1/end selects whole rows or parts from where the cursor is.
