1. chase

   Anything that comes after or goes after another, either in space or in time, is said to follow it. A servant follows or attends his master; a victorious general may follow the retiring enemy merely to watch and hold him in check; he chases or pursues with intent to overtake and attack; the chase is closer and hotter than the pursuit. (Compare synonyms for HUNT.) One event may follow another either with or without special connection; if it ensues, there is some orderly connection; as, the ensuing year; if it results from another, there is some relation of effect, consequence, or inference. A clerk observes his employer's directions. A child obeys his parent's commands, follows or copies his example, imitates his speech and manners. The compositor follows copy; the incoming succeeds the outgoing official.

How to use chase in a sentence?

1. Spokesperson Tommy Garcia:

   While Republicans chase windmills and rush their MAGA money into out-of-reach districts hoping to catch a couple headlines, Democrats are investing strategically and taking nothing for granted to maintain the path to 218 – while also forcing national Republicans to spend millions to prop up their extreme candidates, we’re confident the MAGA Republicans that would be a rubber stamp for the GOP’s nationwide abortion ban and gutting of Social Security and Medicare will never see the halls of Congress.

2. Gene Haas:

   At this time, that's really up to NASCAR, some of our concerns are obviously does he come back, could he get into the Chase? Those issues really reside with NASCAR.

3. Martellus Bennett:

   Due to Bennett's actions and and the information officers had at the time, they believed Bennett may have been involved in the shooting and they gave chase, many folks today have called this an incident of racial bias policing, that police officers focused solely on the race of the individual that they were going to stop. I can tell you as I stand here today, I see no evidence of that. I see no evidence that race played a role in this incident.

4. Christen Kuikoua:

   Don’t take away my family time and tell me I need Facebook, because at times it’s hard to face that book, or tell me to go on Pinterest because at times it’s very hard to pin that interest. I’d rather cherish moments than chase posts, and savor memories instead of pins on a digital coast.

5. Oliver Nugent:

   There's a lot of speculation in this Shanghai lead rally, a lot of froth coming in to chase this up. My worry is they don't stick around for long.
