continuous are to like to love to hate to want to need to prefer to know to understand to believe to remember and to seem so you cannot say for example it is seeming no we don't say that and you cannot say I am knowing no that's wrong also and you cannot say they are needing that's wrong too these verbs express emotion or thought they're non action verbs so they're not normally used in the
