Use of word "followed"
Posted: Thu Jun 17, 2021 5:40 pm
I recently came across a sentence that goes like this: "The investigation followed the discovery that....."
In what way is the word "followed" used here?
"A follows B...." / "A follows B that...." What comes after what? And the explanation behind it?
PS:- I am aware of the expression "followed by". A followed by B implies A first, then B
