60 Present Continuous Tense Example Sentences
Table of Contents
The Present Continuous Tense, which is the most widely used tense form among English grammar topics, usually describes events and situations that occur at the time of speaking. Other situations where it is used in addition are as follows:
As one of the Present Continuous Tense rules, there is an auxiliary verb between the subject and the verb in the sentence, and the verb always takes the suffix “-ing”.
In affirmative sentences, the subject “I” takes the auxiliary verb “am” and “she/he/it” takes the auxiliary verb “is”. Subjects “you/we/they” have the auxiliary verb that is “are”.
Auxiliary verbs belonging to the subjects in negative sentences take the suffix “not”, thus giving the sentence a negative meaning.
Auxiliary verbs are placed at the beginning of the sentence to form question sentences.
