Usage notes

  • Use 'seguito' for 'followers' in social/political contexts, not casual fans (use 'fan' or 'ammiratori').
  • For 'sequel,' prefer 'seguito' over 'continuazione' in film/TV; 'continuazione' sounds stiff.
  • Always masculine singular, even when plural in meaning (e.g., 'un grande seguito').
