Non-continuous verbs are verbs that we do not normally use with continuous tenses. These "stative" verbs are about state, not action, and they cannot express the continuous or progressive aspect. Here are some of the most common non-continuous verbs:
- feeling: hate, like, love, prefer, want, wish
- senses: appear, feel, hear, see, seem, smell, sound, taste
- communication: agree, deny, disagree, mean, promise, satisfy, surprise
- thinking: believe, imagine, know, mean, realize, recognize, remember, understand
- other states: be, belong, concern, depend, involve, matter, need, owe, own, possess
Look at these example sentences, right and wrong:
| I want a coffee. | not |
| I don't believe you are right. | not |
| Does this pen belong to you? | not |
| It seemed wrong. | not |
| I don't hear anything. | not |
Notice that we often use can + see/hear:
- I can see someone in the distance. not
I am seeing someone in the distance. - I can't hear you very well. not
I am not hearing you very well.
With verbs that we cannot use in continuous tenses, there is no real action or activity. Compare hear and listen. The verb "hear" means "receive sound in your ears". There is no action or activity by you. We cannot use hear with continuous tenses. But listenmeans "try to hear". You make an effort to hear. There is a kind of action or activity. We can use listen with continuous tenses.
Some verbs can be both stative and dynamic:
| Be |
be is usually a stative verb, but when it is used in the continuous it means 'behaving' or 'acting'
|
| Think |
|
| Have |
|
| See |
|
| Taste |

Omitted /t/: /t/
An italicized /t/ means that the sound can be silent—or omitted—from a word. This /t/ allophone varies the most widely among native speakers, and even within a single speaker's speech patterns. The /t/ is less likely to be omitted when the speaker is emphasizing the word for an reason. Also, among all the /t/ allophones, this usage can be considered the most informal and non-standardized.
There are two scenarios where the /t/ is often omitted.
Scenario 1) The /t/ is optionally silent when it follows /n/ and precedes a vowel sound, /r/ (including all r-controlled vowels) or a syllabic /l/.
1. center: /ˈsɛnt ɚ/
2. gentle: /ˈʤɛnt l/
3. advantage: /əd ˈvænt ɪʤ/
Scenario 2) In addition to the above instances of omitting the /t/, it is often omitted when it occurs between two consonant sounds (except the consonants specifically mentioned for /t̬/ and glottal stop). This is likely to occur when an -s ending is added to a word.
1. prints: /prɪnts/
2. acts: /ækts/
3. accepts: /ək ˈsɛpts/
