Jun 1, 2022 at 15:21 comment added mjjf Can you provide more context on the tool you're describing? As-is it is difficult to separate what the sentences in question actually mean from what you intend for them to mean.

May 29, 2022 at 10:17 comment added alancc @Eden0516, Yeah, in the past, I input "Phrase A" or "Phrase B" in Google.com and based on the found results to know the popularity. But the new tool is much more advanced and also shows the trends.
May 29, 2022 at 8:57 comment added user150280 @alancc Yeah, it's really useful when I'm explaining those "should I use A or B" questions. Good to know you like it.
May 29, 2022 at 8:56 comment added alancc @Eden0516, Thank you very much for your information. Also thank you for letting me know such an interesting tool from Google.
May 29, 2022 at 6:09 comment added user150280 You're correct that support to do is used more frequently. books.google.com/ngrams/…

May 22, 2022 at 14:58 comment added John Lawler Support as a noun works differently from support as a verb. Be clear what you're trying to say. Full sentences instead of short chunks are more valuable in discussing languages.
May 22, 2022 at 13:58 comment added Kate Bunting Or support with doing something?
