folytatása

Folytatása is a Hungarian noun that denotes the continuation of a work, such as a book, film, or television series. In English it is often rendered as "sequel" or "continuation." The term is used to refer to the part of a work that follows the original, or to the continuation of a story or argument in a new installment. It commonly appears in phrases like the continuation of the original novel or the film is a continuation of the story.

Etymology and grammar: folytatása is formed from the verb folytatni, meaning "to continue," together with the noun folytatás, meaning "continuation," and the possessive suffix -a, which yields "its/the continuation." The result is a noun that can indicate a continuation specific to a previously mentioned work, as in a mű folytatása (the continuation of the work).

Usage and contexts: folytatása is widely used in media and literary discourse to refer to sequels or follow-up installments. It appears in descriptions, reviews, and catalogs when listing subsequent parts of a series, film franchise, or serialized publication. The plural form folytatásai or the phrase "folytatásai" can refer to multiple continuations, while "folytatások" is commonly used for the generic idea of sequels.
