It comes from the phrasal verb follow on. In cricket, a follow-on is a special rule that sends one team in to bat again — a sports use of the same “you have to go on” idea.

It它 comes from來自 the phrasal verb片語動詞 follow on。 In cricket在板球裡， a follow-on is是 a special rule一條特別規則， that sends one team in to bat again會讓其中一隊再進場打擊—— the same同一個 “you have to go on”「你得繼續下去」 idea概念的 a sports use運動版用法。

Fairly neutral; a bit office-and-news in the “next product” sense. Though actually, many people just say follow-up, which is close: follow-up often means checking later, while follow-on often means the next thing in a series.

Fairly neutral語氣相當中性； in the “next product” sense在「下一個產品」這個意思上 a bit有點 office-and-news辦公室與新聞的味道。 Though actually不過其實， many people很多人 just say就直接說 follow-up， which is close意思很接近： follow-up often常 means checking later指之後再確認一下， while而 follow-on often常 means指 in a series一個系列裡 the next thing的下一個。
