Do you have any lessons on the Timeless verb forms of Creole with Present and Progressive?

In Haitian Creole the 'timeless' verb follows right after the "helping verb".
Verbs, in Haitian Creole, always retain their infinitive form.
The helping verb may be in the present, past, or progressive forms.
Check out lessons on present, past and progressive forms from the labels on the right side of your screen.
