"continue" might be the worst-named keyword in python. Like, consider this code:

for i in range(100):
    if i % 5 == 0:
        continue
    print(i)

It prints out numbers that are not multiples of 5. But if you give it to someone who is not experienced in python, they might think the exact opposite!

What would be better? "skip", "ignore", "next"?

Of all these options, I think skip would be the best one.

Next is already taken for iterators, ignore on the other hand could be misinterpreted in other situations.
