What does Continued really mean?

Continued is a word that we often use when we want to convey the idea of something that keeps going on or happens without stopping. It's like when you're watching a TV show and it's not over yet, it's still going, right? That's what continued means, something that is ongoing or hasn't ended.

Let's imagine you are reading a book and it says "To be continued" at the end. It means that the story doesn't finish there. There is more to come! It's like the writer is telling you, "Hey, the adventure isn't over yet, keep reading, there's more excitement to come!" So when we say something is continued, it means there is more of it that will happen or that it will keep going.

Continued can also mean that we are doing something over and over again, without pause. It's like being on a train that never stops at any station until it arrives at the final destination. We keep going without a break. So if we say a task is continued, it means we are doing it without stopping, one after the other, persistently.

When you think of continued, imagine a river flowing constantly. It never stops, it keeps moving, and it doesn't have an end. Similarly, when we say something is continued, we mean it's like that flowing river, always moving forward without stopping.

So, to sum it up, continued means that something is ongoing, it hasn't finished yet, or it keeps happening without a break. It's like a TV show that says "To be continued," a train that never stops, or a river that keeps flowing.
