Uses of the present continuous Tense

➢ We use the present continuous tense to talk about:

1- Something that’s happening now; at the moment of speaking:

(e.g. We are studying English now.)

2-Something that’s happening around the time of speaking:

(Nahla is having a course these days.)

3-Temporary actions:

(I am staying with my aunt until we finish painting our flat.)

4-To talk about the near future:

( (e.g. Dad is flying to Rome tomorrow .)

-Key words of the present continuous tense

Now - Look! - Listen! - at the moment -Watch out!

- at present - nowadays - these days - today - tomorrow - next.....

-Spelling rules

a- If the verb ends in (e), omit the (e) before adding (-ing).

e.g. Write Writing

Drive Driving

b- If the verb ends in (ie), change the (ie) to (y) before adding (-ing).

e.g. Lie Lying

Die Dying

c- Verbs ending in (1 vowel + 1 consonant) with a stress on the last syllable, double

the last letter before adding (-ing).

e.g. Stop Stopping

Swim Swimming

-Note :

Some verbs never come in the present continuous tense (they don’t have a continuous

form).

e.g. (Love – Like – hate – dislike – feel – hear – see – believe – remember – forget-

understand– prefer – want – need – belong – have = own – look = seem)

- If one of those verbs comes in a sentence together with a keyword of the

present continuous, we put the verb in the present simple tense

- e.g. Ali (need) pen now. (Correct)

➢ Ali needs pen now.

Some English verbs, which we call state, non-continuous or stative verbs,

aren't used in continuous tenses (like the present continuous) even when

we are talking about temporary situations or states. Here is a list of some

common ones:

Stative (or State) Verb List

like know belong

love realise promise

hate wish contain

want dislike consist

need understand seem

prefer believe have

agree remember be

mind weigh (=have weight) see

own taste look (=seem)

sound think (=have an opinion) smell

hear imagine

• E.g. So, we say I’m sorry, I don’t understand rather than I’m not understanding.

1. Stative verbs are often verbs connected with thinking and opinions:

guess, imagine, mean, remember, think, believe, etc.

• She doesn’t know what to do NOT She isn’t knowing what to do

2. Other stative verbs are connected with feelings and emotions: dislike, love, prefer, want, wish, etc.

• I like this song. Who sings it? NOT I’m liking this song

• What do you want to do now.

3. ‘see’, ‘hear’, ‘taste’, ‘smell’, ‘feel’ are verbs that describe senses.

These verbs aren’t usually used in continuous forms. They are often used with ‘can’.

• My eyes feel really sore. NOT My eyes are feeling really sore.

• I can’t see anything. It’s too dark.

Port Said International Schools National Section Better Education for Future Generations Name: …………………………………………… G 6( ) Date: ……/11/2017

• A verb which isn't stative is called a dynamic verb, and is

usually an action (continuous form).

Some verbs can be both stative and dynamic:
