One after another Meaning in English
expression
释义
Used to describe things or actions happening in a sequence, immediately following each other without a break.
用法与细微差别
Common in both spoken and written English, often used when describing events, problems, or people appearing in a row. Can be replaced with 'in succession' or 'consecutively' in formal contexts. Not interchangeable with 'one by one', which means things happen individually, not immediately after each other.
