Nasleduje

Nasleduje is a present-tense verb form used in Slovak and Czech meaning "follows" or "is to follow." It is the third-person singular form of the verb nasledovať (Slovak) or následovat (Czech), both meaning to follow or come after. In standard writing the form appears as nasleduje in Slovak; in Czech the diacritic version is následuje, while ASCII renders it as nasleduje.

Etymology and related forms: The verb derives from a common Slavic root sled- meaning to follow, with a prefix commonly used to indicate sequence or consequence. The basic infinitive nasledovať/následovat is related to other forms across the Slavic languages that express following or succeeding. Adaptations include adjectives such as nasledujúci (the following) and related verbs like sledovať (to monitor or follow in a more general sense).

Usage: Nasleduje is used to denote what comes next in a sequence, chronologically or logically. For example, Slovak: Po prečítaní úvodu nasleduje kapitola. (After the introduction, the chapter follows.) Czech: Následuje kapitola o technických aspektech. (The chapter on technical aspects follows.) The word can also introduce consequences: Z toho nasleduje záver. (From this follows the conclusion.)
