Err, I haven't done English grammar since the mid 90s (and it was out of
fashion in our education system at the time...), I'm just coasting on
being allowed to speak my native tongue around here...

To lay is indeed a verb. (It also has other forms, e.g. you can be a lay
preacher or take in the lay of the land, lets skip all that!).

"lying" in the sense of underlying is some form (present participle?) of
"To lie" as in to lie down. i.e. underlying means to lie beneath
something.

Ian.
