ずうっと

ずうっと · zuutto · JLPT N2 · adverb

all the time

ずっと (long time) + う lengthening = stretched-out 'all the time'; zuutto drags the vowel like a long wait

ずうっと is an emphatic form of ずっと: the extra う stretches the vowel, adding intensity. Use it for 'all the way' distances or 'all the time' durations.
