The present paper looks at so-called persistive markers (denoting something like “still going on”) in the sub-Saharan Bantu languages, one of the major subgroups of the Niger-Congo language phylum. The intention is to relate these persistive markers, in terms of cognacy, to a few non-persistive markers (especially progressives and futures).
