Ingrained/deep-rooted

Hi,

I'm preparing an oral homework for my English classes about trends. I will be talking about trends that have just taken off and those that have been with us for a long time. Is it correct to say about the latter "ingrained" or "deep-rooted"? E.g this trend is not new. On the contrary it has been ingrained/deep-rooted for a while.

Thank you

  • I don't think that either term is appropriate for a trend, even a long-standing one.
