Frequently Asked Questions

Does 'seguiría' only mean 'would follow'?

No, it is very commonly used to mean 'would continue' when followed by another action, like 'seguiría leyendo' (I would continue reading).

How do I know if 'seguiría' means 'I would' or 'He/She would'?

Since the form is the same for both, you usually tell from the person's name, a pronoun like 'yo' or 'él', or just the context of the conversation.
