Lets start with Present Continuous Tense :






The Present Continuous Tense #1

There are several continuous tenses in English, and all of them are similar in form: they use BE + the -ing form of another verb. The uses of all the continuous tenses are similar but not exactly the same--and of course they are used for different times. To understand present continuous tense better, let's take a look at its form. Present Continuous Tense: Form The present continuous tense always has two parts: 1. BE (present: am, are, is) 2. a verb ending in -ing Examples: He is studying.(Şuan ders çalışıyor) They are arguing.(onlar tartışıyor.) It is raining.yağmur yağıyor.) You are reading these examples.(örnekleri okuyorsun.) I am using my computer to make these examples.(bu örnekleri yapabilmek için bilgisayarımı kullanıyorum.)                                                        SPECIAL NOTES:  1. Contractions with BE are common with  present continuous tense, especially with subject pronouns: He's studying. They're arguing. It's raining. You're reading these examples. I'm using my computer to make these examples. 2. Contractions are also possible when the subject is a noun--especially when the subject means he, she, or it: Bob's sleeping. Maria's watching TV. The bell's ringing loudly. 3. Some people use the term present progressive tense instead of present continuous tense. Both names are correct. 4. It is actually more accurate to say that sentences like "I'm using my computer to make these examples" are in present tense and show the progressive aspect.
