What is the progessive past participle of listen?

In English, there is no "progressive past participle".The past participle of listen is listened, and it is used with an auxiliary verb to create the perfect tenses. The past participle can be used in past, present, and future tenses. It is the job of the auxiliary verb to show the tense.Examples:had listened is the past perfect tensehave/has listened is the present perfect tensewill have listened is the future perfect tenseThe present participle of listen is listening. Present participles are used to create the progressive tenses, and like the perfect tenses, auxiliary verbs show the tense.Examples:was/were listening is the past progressive tenseam/is/are listening is the present progressive tensewill be listening is the future progressive tense

When do you use a verb or irregular verb?

In languages such as English, in which verbs are conjugated, regular verbs are conjugated in a regular or consistent way, while irregular verbs do not follow an obvious pattern in their conjugation. For example, in English the way to conjugate a regular verb is to add -ed to the past tense, and -ed to the past participle, e.g. "to kick" kick (present tense), kicked (past tense), and (had) kicked (past participle, i.e. "he had kicked him"). Irregular verbs, which are the ones which are used most often in English do not show this pattern. Examples are "sing, sang, sung" and "think, thought, thought." An especially irregular verb in English is "to be" which has the forms "is, was, (had) been," and the present tense of this verb is also irregular in person and number, e.g. "I am, you are, he/she is, we are, you are, they are." Most verbs do not show any difference between the 1st person ("I"), and the second person ("you") in the verb forms. The verb "to go" is also quite irregular, "go, went, gone." Most verbs in European languages show this distinction between irregular and regular verbs.

Why don't Spanish irregular verbs have accent marks?

Spanish irregular verbs do not have accent marks because the irregularity in their conjugation already makes them stand out from regular verbs. Accents in Spanish typically only serve to indicate stress or differentiate words, which is not necessary for irregular verbs since their irregular forms already make them distinct.
