Common Mistakes

  • si, voy seguido.

    Without the accent, 'si' means 'if', not the affirmative 'yes'.

  • Sí, voy a seguido.

    'Ir a' + adverb is ungrammatical here; the adverb follows the verb directly.

  • Sí, voy seguidamente.

    'Seguidamente' is technically correct but sounds overly formal for everyday speech.

Alternatives

  • Sí, voy a menudo.

    Yes, I go often.

  • Claro, lo hago con frecuencia.

    Sure, I do it frequently.

  • Sí, lo hago regularmente.

    Yes, I do it regularly.

Cultural Tip

In many Spanish‑speaking countries 'seguido' can also mean 'consecutively' (e.g., 'Lo hice tres veces seguido' = 'I did it three times in a row'). When you want to stress habit rather than a sequence, 'a menudo', 'con frecuencia' or 'regularmente' are often safer choices, especially in formal writing.
