Common Mistakes

  • Welches Internet‑Trend ist gerade angesagt?

    Trend is masculine, so the correct interrogative is Welcher, not Welches (which would be neuter).

  • ist gerade an‑gesagt

    Do not split the adjective; angesagt stays together as one word.

  • Internet Trend

    When forming a compound, connect the words with a hyphen or write them together; the hyphen clarifies the compound.

Cultural Tip

In German, the adjective angesagt is colloquial and works best in spoken language or informal writing. In formal contexts you might replace it with beliebt or populär. Also, the word Trend is masculine (der Trend), so the interrogative Welcher matches the gender.
