These tenses are used to indicate ongoing incomplete actions. Though being similar to English Continuous tense, they are used almost exclusively in literature in Pomorian. Often the continuous tense can be indicated by an imperfective verb usually formed by adding suffixes ''-ėj-'', ''-aj-'' or ''-av-'' to a verb. For example: ''zodyti'' (to decide) - ''zoďuoti'' (to be deciding) - the ''-av-'' suffix added. This way of expressing the continuous tense is much more common in spoken Pomorian.
