"Is smiling" in English is really just one verb, not two, even though it's two words. High Valyrian doesn't really have an "is doing" (progressive) tense like this,, ābra issa līrisi means nothing in High Valyrian.

Ābra līrisi.
The woman smiles.

Ābra līrisi.
The woman is smiling.

It works the same way in French, German, Esperanto.
