Seguivamo

Seguivamo is the first-person plural imperfect indicative form of the Italian verb seguire, meaning "we were following" or "we used to follow." As a verb form, it functions to describe an ongoing or habitual action in the past. The form derives from the Latin sequi, meaning to follow, and is created in Italian by removing the -re from seguire and adding the imperfect endings; for noi the ending is -vamo, yielding seguivamo.

In usage, seguivamo appears mainly in narrative or descriptive contexts to set past scenes or routines. It can introduce actions that were taking place over a period of time, often with a direct object or a phrase indicating what was being followed. Examples include seguivamo una pista lungo la costa (we were following a trail along the coast) or ogni giorno seguivamo lo stesso percorso (every day we used to follow the same route). The imperfect form can carry nuance of continuity, habit, or background activity within a larger past sequence.

The term is not a standalone noun or proper name; rather, it is a conjugated verb form. It is commonly found in Italian prose, dialogue, and poetry, and its meaning is easily translated into English as "we were following" or "we used to follow." As with other Italian imperfect forms, its use helps convey the temporal relationship between actions in narrative writing.
