Answer NON-CONTINUOUS VERBS cannot be used in any continuous tenses. Also, certain non-continuous meanings for MIXED VERBS cannot be used in continuous tenses. Instead of using present continuous with these verbs, you must use simple present. Examples: INCORRECT: She is loving this chocolate ice cream. CORRECT: She loves this chocolate ice cream.
