A grammatical category of a verb in which the reference to the time an event happened according to the speaker's perspective, is ongoing. It is specifically a habitual event that happened in the past. This is one of the imperfective aspects. For example, given the sentence “I used to love linguistics”, the aspect of love- would be habitual.
