following one after another

Happening or coming one after another in order, with no gap in between.

用法パターン: successive [plural noun]
よくある間違い:
Learners often confuse "successive" with "successful". "Successive" means "one after another", while "successful" means "ending well" or "achieving a goal". Learners may also use "successive" where "subsequent" is better; "subsequent" just means "later", but "successive" usually implies no gaps in the sequence.
類義語
consecutive (Very close in meaning; often the best direct substitute, especially for events in time like days or years.) | sequential (More formal and technical; often used for ordered steps or stages rather than everyday events.) | following (Broader and less strict; may just mean coming later, not necessarily one immediately after another.)
対義語
nonconsecutive (Explicitly states that things do not come one immediately after another.) | separate (Emphasizes that things are not in a continuous sequence or closely linked.)
