the method further comprises:

identifying, by the computing system, a second collection of queries that have been submitted through use of user accounts that are assigned to a same group profile as the particular user account;

identifying, by the computing system, a second term that has occurred frequently in the second collection of queries; and

selecting, by the computing system as a result of having identified that the second term has occurred frequently in the second collection of queries, a second query to include in the list of suggested queries, from the second collection of queries, based on the computing system determining that the second query includes the second term.

6. The computer-implemented method of claim 5 , wherein identifying the second term that has occurred frequently in the second collection of queries includes identifying that the second term has occurred frequently over a second recent time period in the second collection of queries.

7. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein identifying that the particular term has occurred more frequently in recent documents that have published within the recent time period than in older documents that were published within the previous time period that pre-dates the recent time period includes using a formula to detect whether the frequency of usage of the particular term has increased over time.

8. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein determining to use the particular term is further based on identifying that the particular term has occurred more frequently in the documents than other terms.

9. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the recent documents comprise newspaper articles and the older documents comprise newspaper articles.

10. The computer-implemented method of claim 9 , wherein the recent documents comprise published web articles and the older documents comprise published web articles.

11. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein:

the particular term and the other possible terms are from a pre-determined list of nouns; and

determining to use the particular term from among the other possible terms being based on the computing system identifying that the frequency of usage of the particular term in the documents has increased over time includes determining which nouns from the pre-determined list of nouns have been increasing in frequency of usage in the documents over time.

12. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein a publication for each of the recent documents and for each of the older documents is indicated by a date at which the respective document was published by its author or first accessed by a searching system.

13. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising after having determined to use the particular term based on identifying that the frequency of usage of the particular term in the documents has increased over time, using the particular term in selecting, by the computing system, a second particular query to include in the list of suggested queries, from among the collection of queries that have been previously submitted to the computing system, the selecting of the second particular query being based on the computing system determining that the second particular query includes the particular term, wherein the particular term is a subset of the second particular query.

14. One or more computer-readable devices including instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause performance of operations that comprise:

receiving, by a computing system, a request to provide a computing device with a list of suggested queries;

determining, by the computing system, to use a particular term in selection of a query to include in the list of suggested queries from among a collection of queries that have been previously submitted to the computing system, the determining to use the particular term from among other possible terms being based on the computing system identifying that a frequency of usage of the particular term in documents has increased over time, including by identifying that the particular term has occurred more frequently in recent documents that have published within a recent time period than in older documents that were published within a previous time period that pre-dates the recent time period, wherein the documents include the recent documents and the older documents;
