PPRESENT CONTINUOUS
Negative sentences

If you are clear about the previous step, you

I would like to start with this explanation of
the present continuous in English saying
what it is for. This time is used to talk about
actions that are in progress. That is, the
activity or event to which we refer is
happening in the present moment.
will have no problem building negative
sentences with the present continuous. It
will only be to put the verb «to be» in its
negative form.

Keep in mind that this grammatical time is

also known as progressive present. So when
you listen to your English teacher in class
talk about "present continuous" and then
studying in an English grammar book you
see that they call it "present progressive" do
not be confused, they are the same thing.

Affirmative sentences
How do we make the present continuous? We
are going to need the verb “to be”, which we
already studied in the previous topic, and a
verb adding the ending “-ing”. Therefore, the
structure is:

PPRESENT
CONTINUOUS

Interrogative phrases
The construction of the interrogative
sentences with the continuum in English is
very simple. All you have to do is put the "to
be" at the beginning and add the question
mark and that's it.
The present continuous with
future
I already know what you are thinking, that
if I have said that the continuous present is
something that happens at this precise
moment, as it is that it is also future. This is
crazy!
No, it's not crazy. This is the exciting thing
about languages that many tools give you.
We saw earlier that if you say for example: I
am taking an exam. This is continuous
present. but, if you add at the end of that
sentence a word that refers to the future
like: Tomorrow, next year, in June, at
Christmas, etc. We would be giving it a
future value.
