Present Continuous Tense
(also called the Present Progressive Tense)

The present continuous (sometimes called the present progressive) tense in English is really easy to make and is the same for all verbs. We make it using the present simple of 'be' + verb-ing:

Here is how we make the positive:

Positive (Positive Short Form)
I am sleeping (I'm sleeping)
you are sleeping (you're sleeping)
he is sleeping (he's sleeping)
she is sleeping (she's sleeping)
it is sleeping (it's sleeping)
we are sleeping (we're sleeping)
they are sleeping (they're sleeping)

We can make the negative by adding 'not':

Negative (Negative Short Form)
I am not sleeping (I'm not sleeping)
you are not playing (you aren't playing)
he is not reading (he isn't reading)
she is not working (she isn't working)
it is not raining (it isn't raining)
we are not cooking (we aren't cooking)
they are not listening (they aren't listening)

Questions are also really, really easy. Just like we made the question with 'be' in the present simple, here we also put 'am', 'is', or 'are' before the subject to make a 'yes / no' question:

Yes / No Questions
am I eating chocolate ?
are you studying now ?
is he working ?
is she doing her homework ?
is it raining ?
are we meeting at six ?
are they coming ?

For 'wh' questions, just put the question word at the front:

Wh Questions
Why am I eating chocolate ?
What are you studying now ?
When is he working ?
What is she doing ?
Why is it raining ?
Who are we meeting ?
How are they travelling ?
