Cont. is a short written form of continued.

Cont.這個縮寫是continued續的a short written form簡短書面形式。

You meet it at the foot of a page, under a heading, or on a form, pointing you to the rest of the text: 'cont. on p. 8.' People who make newspapers, school worksheets, and meeting notes use it to save space.

at the foot of a page, under a heading, or on a form在頁面底部、標題下方、或表格上 you meet it你會遇到它, pointing you to the rest of the text指向文章其餘的部分：'cont. on p. 8.'（意思是「續見第8頁」）. People who make newspapers, school worksheets, and meeting notes做報紙、學校講義和會議記錄的人 use it to save space用它來節省空間。

You do not say 'cont.' as its own word; if you are reading the page aloud, you say 'continued.' Though actually, English cannot even agree how to cut it. Some pages write cont., some write contd., some write cont'd with a little mark, and some just write continued. They all mean 'this goes on.' It belongs to paper and PDFs, not to chat and not to speech.

You do not say 'cont.' as its own word你不會把「cont.」當作一個獨立的字唸出來; if you are reading the page aloud如果你要把這頁唸出聲, you say 'continued.'你會說「continued」。Though actually不過其實, English cannot even agree how to cut it英文自己也沒有統一要怎麼縮寫這個字。Some pages write cont.有些頁面寫cont., some write contd.有些寫contd., some write cont'd with a little mark有些加一個小符號寫成cont'd, and some just write continued也有些乾脆就寫continued。They all mean 'this goes on.'它們的意思都是「還沒完，後面還有」。It belongs to paper and PDFs這個詞屬於紙本和PDF, not to chat and not to speech不屬於聊天，也不屬於口說。

A show that says 'to be continued' is promising a later part; cont. is the cramped cousin on the page you are already holding.

A show that says 'to be continued'一部影集說「to be continued」（待續）的時候 is promising a later part是在預告還有下一集；cont.而cont.這個縮寫 on the page you are already holding在你手上這頁紙上 is the cramped cousin則是那個擠在角落的表親。
