• As a follow-up to last week's show, tonight we'll show the other side of the story.
  

— 

— As  an adjective  follow–up is always used before a noun

• After you submit your job application, you should make a follow-up phone call.
  
• He had a follow-up appointment a week after his surgery.
  

Muriel,
"Follow-up" is very used as a noun nowadays: on Twitter it's someone who follows your tweets (roughly someone who belongs to your circle of friends).

Thanks Gérard !

Gérard I agree that English is like an unexplored land, there is always something we don't know !

Muriel,
Isn't it similar in German, Spanish, etc?

yes it's the same. With language-learning you always feel you have not reached a good level yet !

MurielB a écrit:yes it's the same. With language-learning you always feel you have not reached a good level yet !

Not exactly, in my opinion.
For me you can reach a pretty good level but there's still things to learn if you wish (a problem when you are too fond of perfection, learning is an endless task - people must be able to realize this "ned" for perfection may be too much, and probably in other domains as well: an illness)... Similar in French: even if your language level is good, you can always find improvements.

Gérard i understand but what do you mean by

this "ned" for perfection ?

MurielB a écrit:Gérard i understand but what do you mean by

this "ned" for perfection ?

Muriel,

Sorry I made a spelling with an "e" that stayed on my finger, I meant 'this "need" for perfection'

I also made a mistake with "but there's still things to learn": of course it should be "but there're still things to learn" (I initially thought of "there's still something to learn").

Thanks a lot Gérard !
