Now, you are able to form the present continuous tense, but what about how we use this tense? Here you will learn the four main situations when we need the present continuous:
a) Actions that are happening at this moment. Look at the examples:
- Sam is watching TV now
- I am drinking some water at this moment
b) A temporary situation, action or habit
- She is reading a great book these days
- Tom is working in Santiago this week
