Progressions
PRESENT CONTINUOUS
We use the Present Continuous to talk about actions that are happening at the moment of speaking.
STRUCTURE
Subject Pronoun + Verb to be (am/are/is) + Verb (-ing)
I am workingYou are working
He is workingShe is workingWe are working
They are working
EXAMPLES
She is dancing.
The monkey is eating bananas.
They are playing soccer.
She is watching TV.
They are fighting.
PRESENT CONTINUOUS – Rules
Verbs ended by E, we drop E and add –ING:
MAKE = makingTAKE = taking
LEAVE = leaving
Verbs ended by consonant + vowel + consonant (CVC), we double the last letter:
RUN = runningCUT = cuttingPUT = putting
But, when the last syllable is stressed, we also double the letter:
STOP = stoppingBEGIN = beginningSWIM = swimming
Verbs ended by IE, we change it to Y:
LIE = lyingDIE = dyingTIE = tying
Verbs ended by W, X and Y, we do not double the last consonant:
FIX = fixingSTUDY = studying
LOW (literary) = lowing
Do you understand it?
