Continuative aspect

The continuative aspect (abbreviated or ) is a grammatical aspect representing actions that are 'still' happening. English does not mark the continuative explicitly but instead uses an adverb such as still.

Ganda uses the prefix to mark the continuative aspect. For example, (unmarked for aspect) means "I'm reading", while (continuative) means "I'm still reading".

Similarly, Pipil marks the continuative aspect using the clitic . For instance, means "I am eating" or "I eat", while (continuative) means "I'm still eating".
