Lesson 50.54B2

Trends & Statistics Vocabulary

പ്രവണതകളും സ്ഥിതിവിവരക്കണക്കുകളും

Beyond the movement verbs from the graph-description lesson, formal reports lean on a set of nominalized trend-words — the same -ung pattern from B2's nominalization lesson, now applied to statistics.

Grammar Comparison

വ്യാകരണ താരതമ്യം

Trend nouns are nominalized movement verbs

German

der Anstieg (the rise, from ansteigen) / der Rückgang (the decline, from zurückgehen)

Malayalam

വർദ്ധനവ് (the rise, from വർദ്ധിക്കുക) / ഇടിവ് (the decline, from ഇടിയുക)

Just as German turns verbs into abstract nouns with -ung (Untersuchung from untersuchen), it builds trend-vocabulary the same way from movement verbs — der Anstieg from ansteigen, der Rückgang from zurückgehen. Malayalam does something similar with its own noun-forming patterns, turning വർദ്ധിക്കുക ('to increase') into വർദ്ധനവ് ('the rise'). Recognizing the verb hiding inside each trend-noun makes this list far easier to learn than treating each word as arbitrary.
