Common mistake
Forcing trend language into static charts makes the report look misread.

- Whether gaps are quantified
- Whether false trends are avoided
Turn the chart type into an overview, data selection, comparisons, and sentence control first. The goal is not memorising one sample; it is knowing what this chart needs most.
Decide which relationship the chart requires first, then choose the figures and language that support the overview.
Static charts need comparison signals such as highest, lowest, similar, and twice as much as.
Find highest/lowest, similar categories, and the largest gap first; do not rush into time language.
Rewrite the overview using only ranking and grouping to summarise the chart.
