意味（1）

(music, countable) A sequence of notes or chords that results from repeated shifts in pitch of the same interval.

The theory suggests, but does not state explicitly, that the prohibition of consecutives is the stricter the nearer the interval in question lies to the fundamental component of a blend.

意味（2）

(linguistics, countable) A linguistic form that implies or describes an event that follows temporally from another.

What marks the consecutive is its special morphology and syntax indicating the temporal succession of actions.

意味（3）

(uncountable and countable) Consecutive interpretation.

Having an audience would have allowed a more natural setting for the consecutive. The choice of individual sessions was dictated by the following considerations: (i) given that the recordings were made on an itinerant basis (sometimes at subjects' homes), it would have proved practically impossible to arrange an audience for every session; (ii) recruiting an audience for the consecutives recorded at university would have limited the pool of potential subjects without prior knowledge of the speeches; (iii) it would have been inconsistent to record some interpretations before an audience and others in individual sessions.
