In Hindi we say, मै करते रहता हूं(mai karate rahatA hUM), वह गाते रहता है(vah gAte rahatA hai ). By saying so we indicate the continuity of action. In English we use “To keep doing” form of sentence. 

e.g I keep trying even if I fail.

He kept speaking until all slept.

Do not stop, keep doing

In Marathi sentence formation is “-

                            

Doer of action	verb+ त (t)	form of “राहणे” (rAhaNe) as per subject and tense
मी	बोलत	राहिलो

Like few exceptions the verb “राह” changes to “राहि” before creating its simple past tense.

Below example will clarify concept :-

मै बोलते रहता हूं(mai bolate rahatA hUM)   

मी बोलत राहतो (mI bolat rAhato )

मै बोलते रहा (mai bolate rahA )   

मी बोलत राहिलो (mI bolat rAhilo)

मै बोलते रहूंगा(mai bolate rahUMgA)   

मी बोलत राहीन  (mI bolat rAhIn)

  

तू रोते रहता है (tU rote rahatA hai )

तू रडत राहतोस(tU raDat rAhatos)

तू रोते रहा(tU rote rahA)

तू रडत राहिलास(tU raDat rAhilAs)

तू रोते रहेगा(tU rote rahegA)

तू रडत राहशील(tU raDat rAhashIl) 

बोलते रहो (bolate raho ) (आज्ञार्थी )

बोलत राहा  (bolat rAhA)

रोको मत, गाडी चलाते रहो ( roko mat, gADI chalAte raho )

थांबवू नकोस, गाडी चालवत राहा ( thAMbavU nakos, gADI chAlavat rAhA )

कोई कितना भी रोके, मै इस देशसे प्यार करता रहूंगा(koI kitanA bhI roke, mai is deshase pyAr karatA rahUMgA)

कोणी कितीही थांबवो,मी या देशावर प्रेम करत राहीन (koNI kitIhI thAMbavo,mI yA deshAvar prem karat rAhIn )
