Follow up
Hello,
could anybody please explain the phrase verb "follow up"? Is there any one-word-translation? I've seen it it in hundereds of meaning and still don't really understand what it means...something like "to continue doing something I started before"?
Thank you

How about this sentence? Is it correct? "I’ve just recently got to your communication with Matt and Eva regarding the translation of TPC and would like to follow up on their work."

DDEX Is it correct? "I’ve just recently got to your communication with Matt and Eva regarding the translation of TPC and would like to follow up on their work."Its grammar is correct. There, 'follow up' seems to mean 'review' or 'comment upon'.

There are several meanings, some of these might help:
- to further an end or review new developments
- build upon earlier work
- continue something that has already begun
- subsequently examine or review earlier work
