Description

This issue is for adding the ETL, i.e. SPARQL queries, parsing, creating of .json/.sqlite, to include the continuous tenses for the English data. Currently, Scribe grabs the past participle to construct the different conjugations for * perfect tenses. The same could be done with the present participle to construct the different conjugations for * perfect continuous tenses.

I believe the work for this should roughly boil down to adding an additional block here in the query_verbs.sparql to also get the present participle and then also adding the corresponding piece here in the format_verbs.py to format/add the new data in the results.

Going through old issues at the moment :) We now have continuous tenses for present, past, future and conditional in English, so this issue's good to close. Commit for it was 7573808. Thanks all!
