Present Continuous — упражнения для тренировки и правила образования

Present Continuous Tense или Present Progressive Tense – в переводе на русский означает настоящее продолженное (длительное) время. Чаще всего Present Continuous используется для описания действия, происходящего в момент речи.

Построение предложений в Present Continuous

Во всех предложениях Present Continuous используются:

• вспомогательный глагол to be в нужной форме;
• глагол с окончанием -ing (V-ing).

Формы глагола to be:

• am (с местоимением I);
• is ( 3-е лицо, единственное число – He, She, It);
• are (множественное число – We, You, They).

Изменения написания глагола с окончанием -ing:

• немая гласная –e в конце слова — опускается:
  • make – making;
• гласные -ie меняются на -y:
  • lie – lying;
• при окончании глагола на ударный закрытый слог, происходит удвоение согласной:
  • bet – betting.
