Dear All,
Is «deteriorating problems» appropriate to describe a problem which gets worse and worse?
Basically I want to say that «adolescent resistance is a deteriorating problem worldwide»
Many thanks in advance!
-
#2
No. The problem is not deteriorating — that would mean that the problem’s condition is worsening.
You need another verb. I am not sure what «adolescent resistance» is but if it is getting worse then: «Adolescent resistance is a growing problem worldwide.»

Hi Paul!
Thanks for the reply! Adoelscent resistance is , e.g. adolescents’ rejecting parental requests
What if the problem has always been there but gets worse and worse now? Can I say «an aggravating problem»?
Anyone who knows the differences among
— aggravate
— exacerbate
— exasperate???
Many thanks in advance!!!

Can I say «an aggravating problem»
No, you cannot. You do not seem to understand how the «-ing form» of the verb modifies the noun. An aggravating problem is a problem that aggravates something.
Is there anyone who knows the differences
amongbetween
— aggravate
— exacerbate
— exasperate?
Yes, the Word Reference dictionary.

Hi Paul!
MANY thanks for the correction and the tip!! I checked up both in my lingoes as well as the word ref dictionary but couldn’t identify any clear distinction between the three words. That’s alright.
Is there a way to express the meaning of a problem’s getting worse and worse in the form of «an ~ problem»? with ~ being one word to look compact.
I’m also particularly grateful that you pointed out my wrong understanding in the “ -ing form» of the verb, i never noticed but it is true! An inspiring person inspires others rather than themselves, a fascinating thing fascinates others and not themselves. You made me realize one more difference in linguistic logics between English and Chinese! LOL In Chinese both inspiring and a problem which is worsening by itself can be expressed in the same form.
My heartfelt THANKS!

An increasing/growing problem. If a problem grows/increases, by definition, it become a bigger problem and thus «worse».
-
#7
It would pay to think about how or in what way a problem is getting worse.
A problem that happens more often could be called a «spreading problem» or an «expanding problem».
A problem that grows more complex might be described as a «deepening problem».
A problem which no one tries to fix could be called an «unchecked problem».

In this case, what is increased/grown is the problem itself… I’m gonna say i’m confused again by the -ing form LOL

Sorry if I’ve added to your confusion. If you have a question about what I posted I can try to answer.
PaulQ’s answer was accurate and complete, as always. I just hoped to show how another word choice could help communicate the nature of the problem as you see it.

A worsening problem.
In Chinese both inspiring and a problem which is worsening by itself can be expressed in the same form.
The closest phrase I can think of, if I understand you, is «a call to action».

Hi RedwoodGrove!
I just noticed that you replied with «A worsening problem», that’s cool!! What if the problem is not only worsening, but also alarming? Is there a word which can express both meanings??? Sorry for challenging all the experts here!

Hi feifayfeefey,
I concur with Paul and JM, you’d have to use a phrase in the format adverb + adjective + noun. So that might be, «an increasingly calamitous problem». Or you could use adjective + comma + adjective + noun: «a growing, desperate problem». You can choose the word combination that best describes the situation for your purposes.
It’s interesting, from a linguistics standpoint, to consider how many concepts can be wrapped up in one word. In English, even though a single word can have many dictionary definitions, when you use it you are almost always referencing just one definition or meaning. The added modifiers (adverb, adjective, etc.) alter the nuance.
-
#15
You can say a condition «gets worse, and then gets worse again».
Or «it worsened and then worsened further.»
«It is a worsening problem that seems to be worsening at a yet higher rate.»
Etc.
It might not be my first choice but I would not object to it, especially if it was used for emphasis.

An inspiring person inspires others rather than themselves, a fascinating thing fascinates others and not themselves.
I think I see some of your confusion here. It’s not the suffix -ing which causes «inspiring person» to mean a person who inspires others. Rather it’s meaning of the word «inspire». You don’t typically inspire yourself; you inspire others.
As an example of how you could use the -ing suffix to apply to yourself consider that you eat for yourself. You cant ordinarily eat for others. So an «eating person» is doing the eating, not eating for anyone else. The fact that there is an -ing suffix does not affect who you are eating for.

Hi RedwoodGrove!
«an increasingly calamitous problem» is perfect!!! Thank you so much!!! LOL
Does «an increasingly calamitous problem in a theoretical gap» make sense, in this case? I’m writing an academic journal article and want to say that this problem is not yet addressed in theory, namely it is a theoretical gap.
What your brought about is very, very interesting… I never thought that this is also the case in English, because Chinese is known for making no sense given only one character, a character need always be combined with another character to make a precise sense… LOL
By the way, what is the difference between «concur with» and «agree with»? I’m sorry but my master promoter used to say that I never stop asking questions…

I like your proposal, it’s poetic! I’ll be criticized if i use it in my academic article but I’ll keep in mind for personal writings later. Thanks!!! LOL

♦ Нюрок и тут взбеленилась: «…Неужели ты не видишь, что он давно умеет делать, чтобы за него всё делали?.. Он всегда кого-нибудь эксплуатирует — мать, отца, каких-то там приятелей, а прежде всего приятельниц!» Час от часу было не легче. Ирина Викторовна спросила: «Значит, ты меня окунаешь, милая? В действительность?» (Залыгин 1). Niurok lost her temper completely: «…Can’t you see he knows how to arrange things so that other people do everything for him?…He’s forever exploiting somebody-his mother, his father, his friends, but most of all his girlfriends.» It was getting worse all the time. Irina Viktorovna asked, «Giving me a crash course in reality, are you, my dear?» (1a).
♦ [Маша:] Тебя исключают из университета… [Колесов:] Да он [ректор] что, озверел, что ли? [Маша:] Полегче. Эта девочка, между прочим, дочь [ректора] Владимира Алексеевича. [Колесов:] Вы — дочь? [Таня:] Что поделаешь. [Колесов:] Час от часу не легче (Вампилов 3). [М.:] You’re being expelled from the university…. [K.:] What happened, did he [the Provost] go wild, is that it? [M.:] Tkke it easy. This girl, by the way, is [the Provost] Vladimir Alekseyevich’s daughter. [K.:] You’re-his daughter? [T.:] What can I do… [K.:] It’s getting worse every minute (3b).
♦ «Да как обвенчаться! — проговорил Пьер на слова Марьи Дмитриевны. — Он не мог обвенчаться: он женат». — «Час от часу не легче, -проговорила Марья Дмитриевна. — Хорош мальчик! То-то мерзавец! А она ждёт, второй день ждёт» (Толстой 5). «But how could there be a marriage?» exclaimed Pierre at Marya Dmitrievna’s last words. «He couldn’t marry her-he’s already married!» «It gets worse and worse!» cried Marya Dmitrievna. «A fine fellow! He’s certainly a scoundrel! And there she sits waiting — she’s been expecting him for two days» (5a).
♦ «Зачем же им этот ядовитый сок, — встревожился мой старик, — кого они собираются травить?» — «Нет, — успокоил его старый арап, — травить они никого не собираются — ни людей, ни скотину. Этот сок им нужен для аэропланов. Аэропланы без этого сока взлететь не могут, могут только ехать по земле, как машины» — «Час от часу не легче», — сказал мой старик (Искандер 3). «What do they want with this poisonous juice?» my old man asked anxiously. «Whom are they planning to poison?» «No,» the old black soothed him, «they’re not planning to poison anyone, neither men nor beasts. They need the juice for airplanes. Airplanes can’t fly without it, they can only run along the ground like trucks.» «Things are going from bad to worse,» my old man said (3a).
