please dont look at this

Question

hi friends,my posts title was "please look at this",but after a day without reply i decided to
change the title in hopes that it would be interesting.

at times when i want to write or say something in english,i get troubled because i need some
practice,so i opened the computer magazine on my table and did a translation practice.(tried to do)
im sure i did mistakes ,please warn me for each of them (includes my speech i currently
doing)so if you see something weird and not fits,please make me correct .(please
native speakers,not novices like me

).

translation i did is here:

what do the world search?

Google Trends

Google Trends is one of the most interesting services that you could expect
from a search engine,shows you how many times the word you searching
has been searched,and as in its title,how many trend it has become.
Though at first it souns ordinary and simple,but if you take a glance on it,you
witness it becomes an enjoyable occupation(not sure occupation fits here).
When you write down the word you want to know how trend it is in the search
bar and click "search trends" button,two graphics show up.the one on top shows
the words searching ratio chronologically.You can easily see in which years which
month the word more trendy.The one beneath shows in which cities and countries
how many times the word has searched.

thanks a lot in advance.

is it "how trend it has become"?

Clive · Answer

Hi,

No, as an adjective, you'd say 'How trendy it has become . . . '

Google Trends

Google Trends is one of the most interesting services that you could expect
from a search engine.[sentence break] It shows you how many times the word you are searching for has been searched, and as in the title, how [del] trendy it has become.
[you could write instead: ...title, what the current trend is.]

Though at first it sounds ordinary and simple, [del] if you take a glance at it, you
will see that it becomes an enjoyable pastime. When you write down the word whos trend you are looking for in the search bar and click "search trends" button, two graphics show up. The one on top shows the word-search ratio chronologically. You can easily see in which years and which months the word was more trendy.

The graphic beneath shows by city and country how many times the word has
been searched for.

As I say in my signature, it's a suggestion. I am suggesting some improvements
from both the language and style points of view.

Your first attempt at translating the article was very good.
It made sense, and it carried the message. That is what matters most.

[my comments are in brackets]

"... the word whos trend ..." This is an odd bit of English. There is no 'it' word to use here,
so we use 'whos' even though we are not talking about people.
If you write "... the trend of which ..." it looks both odd and formal.

please dont look at this
