Stative Verbs can't take the progressive form

Verbos que não podem podem levar a terminação -ing (progressive) são chamados de stative verbs. Já os que podem são chamados de dynamic verbs.  Some verbs are only (or mostly) used in simple tenses, and are not used in continuous tenses. An example of a simple tense is the present simple, or the past simple. An example of a continuous tense is the present continuous or past continuous. These verbs are called stative, or state verbs. A verb which isn’t stative is called a dynamic verb, and is usually an action. Often stative verbs are about liking or disliking something, or about a mental state, not about an action.                 click on the image below to enlarge it.
