    Present Progressive Tense

    • Used to describe an ongoing action in the present.
    • Can be used to describe a future activity, especially when the activity has been planned or arranged.

    Forming the Present Progressive Tense

    • Formed using the present participle of the verb and the auxiliary verb "be."
    • Present participle is formed by adding "-ing" to the base form of the verb (e.g., walking, eating, sleeping).

    Present Participle

    • For verbs ending in "e," the "e" is dropped before adding "-ing" (e.g., "write" becomes "writing").

    Examples

    • "I am walking"
    • "She is eating."
    • "They are sleeping."
    • "We are going to the party tomorrow." (Future use)
