The Present continuous is used to show that an ongoing action is happening now, either at the moment of speech or now in a larger sense. The present continuous is formed using (be in the present simple) am/is/are + the main verb + the –ing. (I’m talking, she is playing, we are dancing…) If the main verb ends with an –e we drop the –e then we add –ing. Examples: • Leave=> leaving • Make=> making • Take=> taking • Love=> loving • Like=> liking If the main verb ends with a consonant+ vowel+ consonant (CVC), we double the last consonant. Examples: • Get=> getting • Run=> running • Stop=> stopping • Sit=> sitting • Swim=> swimming • Begin=> beginning Table of the present continuous (verb to do)
