Do you know what a progressive verb is?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The progressive form is a verb tense used to show an ongoing action in progress at some point in time. It shows an action still in progress. Verbs can appear in any one of three progressive tenses: present progressive, past progressive, and future progressive. The verbs in the progressive form use a form of "to be" + the present participle (an -ing verb). (It is the form of the helping verb that indicates the tense.) Present Progressive: The cake is baking slowly. Past Progressive: The trees were waving back and forth. Future Progressive: The children will be laughing.
