you know, the magic things about data is that it will change. So this is so important that you are able to describing those changes in data. Let’s say, if we want to describe increase or decrease, these are the two most commonly used words, but I am telling you those are common words, but normally if you want to make an impressive speech, or you are writing an article you want to show that you are enjoying a lot of vocabularies, those may not be the words you’ll be using. Ok? in our daily lives you have been familiar with some English expressions and use them to describe some data increase or decrease on the top of the chart we can see that... that is the most useful expression we are also used to say increase increase climb rise grow, say increase climb rise grow ascend say ascend that`s enough we also say decrease decrease drop fall say decrease drop fall decline descend decline or descend that's also enough in fact there are some other expressions More accurate words, if you can use that, that sounds better. Let’s say, those are the favorable words that I strongly encourage you guys to use these, like, if the data is making a sharp increase, even vertical, we have a special term for that, we call this, is rocket. And if it decreases vertically, we use the word plummet. Well, if it is not vertical, like 80 degree, you’ll say escalate. On the other direction, you’ll say plunge. We have swell over here and collapse. If you say the data or the number soar, if we say it soars, it means it may increase like 60 degrees, slump also is downward. So normally if we say 45 degree or something, we say surge, and downward, subside. You’ll often hear about this word, boom. We’ll say China’s economy is booming. This is a little exaggeration because we are increasing in a number about 10, but they say booming. Basically they think, well, you are increasing sharply. Ebb is that the figure goes away. And creep up, less than 10 degree that means you are barely notice there is an increase, and creep down. Ok. Say, if the data we remain the same, that means you need to describe stability. So here are the words that we might be using. The very common words would be to remain stable, to keep constant, to stay steady. But those are very common words. There are some favorable words. If you can use that in your speech or in your writing, you’ll have some positive points over here. Remain plane, keep balanced, stay unvarying, and if you are using adjective. it is kind of morose, slack, and sluggish. On some special occasions, there are some special other terms that you need to mention, sometimes we use “reach a plateau”. a plateau the plateau will continue to reach a kind of flat state so we say it reach to a stable state of high position what if the stable state of middle position we say even out what if low position level off or level out There are also other two words you may want to have a good look at, rally it usually means firstly going down and then going up especially fitly applying to describe stock markets who usually see rally there is also a kind of description retrieve its original meaning is to rise then fall back retrieve Ok
