The Chinese word 继续 (jìxù) means "to continue" or "to keep on doing something". It is composed of two characters: 继 (jì), which means "to succeed" or "to inherit", and 续 (xù), which means "to continue" or "to extend". The word 继续 is often used in formal writing and speech, and it can be used in a variety of contexts. For example, you could say 继续学习 (jìxù xuéxí) to mean "to continue studying" or 继续工作 (jìxù gōngzuò) to mean "to continue working". The word 继续 can also be used in a more general sense to mean "to keep on doing something", as in the sentence 继续前进 (jìxù qiánjìn), which means "to keep on moving forward".
