📚 Etymology

The base verb 'seguir' comes from the Vulgar Latin *sequire*, which traces back to the Classical Latin *sequi*, meaning 'to follow.' This is the same root that gives English words like 'sequence' and 'consecutive.'

First recorded: 10th century (as *sequir*)

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does the verb change from 'e' to 'i' in 'síganme'?

The verb 'seguir' (to follow) is irregular. In many forms, like this command, the 'e' in the middle of the stem changes to an 'i'. This is called a stem-changing verb, and it happens in many common Spanish verbs.

How would I say 'Don't follow me' to a group?

For negative commands, the pronoun 'me' goes *before* the verb and the word 'no' is used. You would say: 'No me sigan.' (Notice there is no accent mark in the negative form.)
