90 day's training: Day 24 Could you please check my sentences? Thanks in advance. 🐰 1) I've been sorting out some of my old books to sell for someone who needs. It would be called SDGs. 2) I sometimes hear some abbreviations from English words on TV shows. I think that many Japanese don't know how to say their complete words. 3) According to Google, SDGs is the abbreviation of Sustainable Development Goals. 4) I always use my electric dictionary since 2005. It is almost 20 years old. It is really strong one. 5) I sometimes think about to buy one or not, if my dictionary were broken. I hope it would be not true.

"Now that's what you'd call sustainable."のようなことが言えると思います。特にSDGsという略は英語圏では知られていないと思います。なので、説明的に”持続可能な行動”などで表現した方がいいかもしれません。

SOMETIMES and SOME are redundant. I've never heard of an elecric dictionary. You might need to explain this or use another term for it.
