Frequently Asked Questions

Why does 'seguimos' sound like 'we continue' and not just 'we follow'?

'Seguir' is a versatile verb. While its original meaning is 'to follow,' it is most frequently used today as an auxiliary verb, meaning 'to continue' or 'to keep on doing.' Think of it as 'We follow the action of doing X.'

Is 'seguimos' irregular?

Yes, the verb *seguir* is irregular. However, the 'nosotros' form ('seguimos') looks regular in the present tense. The irregularity (e becomes i, like in *sigo* or *sigues*) skips the 'nosotros' and 'vosotros' forms.
