successive [plural noun]
Karaniwang pagkakamali:
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.
Mga kasingkahulugan
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.)
Mga kasalungat
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.)
