Quarterly GDP growth terminology: YoY vs QoQ
As long as you clearly label what you are doing, there’s probably a lot of ways of phrasing the change in the year-on-year growth rate. However, anyone with experience will take those changes with a large grain of salt, as a result of “base effects.”

For relatively low growth rates, the annual rate of change is roughly equal to the sum of non-annualised quarterly growth rates over the last four quarters (or the average of annualised growth rates for 4 quarters). The change in the annual growth rate on quarter is therefore driven by the difference between the latest quarter, and the quarter that dropped out of the annual average. If that previous period was abnormally low, the current annual growth rate will jump higher, even if the quarterly growth rate is unchanged.

Since that hardly represents new information about the economy, that jump is not providing a lot of new information - we knew about that weak quarter for a long time.

Year-on-year changes are a great for time series plots, but you need to dig further if you want to discuss acceleration/deceleration.
