Is this a commonly used phraseology from ATC? I would have thought just
using the word 'continue' would be too ambiguous for the likes of the FAA.


It is commonly used at Syracuse, NY, a class C airport. Normally, the
tower uses it at first reply to my call-up when s/he cannot clear me to
land at that point due to something (aircraft, vehicle, etc) on or about
to momentarily block the runway.

In response to "continue," I do what it takes to land, but remind myself
that I am not yet cleared and to expect further clearance shortly.
