• Present Continuous indicates action that is taking place at the moment of speaking. NOW. Not the past, not the future.
![Page 10: Verb Tenses Solved Once and for All](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051323/5480ff49b4af9fa5158b5e79/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
For example...
“He is walking.” … means right now, he
is walking, as we speak.
![Page 11: Verb Tenses Solved Once and for All](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051323/5480ff49b4af9fa5158b5e79/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

![Page 13: Verb Tenses Solved Once and for All](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051323/5480ff49b4af9fa5158b5e79/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

• Present Simple refers to actions that are generally true or habitual. That is, they took place in the past, continue to take place in the present, and will take place in the future.
• The action does not necessarily take place at the actual moment of speaking, but can be at any point on the timeline that surrounds the present time (e.g. The assignment is due next Thursday).
![Page 15: Verb Tenses Solved Once and for All](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051323/5480ff49b4af9fa5158b5e79/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
For example... “He walks to work.”
…means it is generally the case that he walks to work. He walked to
work in the past; he walks in the present; he will work in the future.
![Page 16: Verb Tenses Solved Once and for All](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051323/5480ff49b4af9fa5158b5e79/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Similarly… “He exercises.”
…means he habitually exercises. He exercised in the past; he
exercises in the present, he will exercise in the future.
![Page 17: Verb Tenses Solved Once and for All](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051323/5480ff49b4af9fa5158b5e79/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
“He is sleeping.”
“He exercises.”
He might very well be sleeping or watching TV at the present
moment, but, habitually he exercises.
![Page 18: Verb Tenses Solved Once and for All](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051323/5480ff49b4af9fa5158b5e79/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
The form of simple present is just the bare infinitive (without “to”), marked for person and number (singular or plural)
“I walk.”
“You walk.”
“He walks.”
“She walks.”
![Page 19: Verb Tenses Solved Once and for All](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051323/5480ff49b4af9fa5158b5e79/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
• The Past Continuous tense indicates an action in the past that was happening during and is LONGER in duration than another action in the past. For example,
“He was walking when it started to rain.”
![Page 20: Verb Tenses Solved Once and for All](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051323/5480ff49b4af9fa5158b5e79/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

“He was sleeping at 3:00.”
![Page 21: Verb Tenses Solved Once and for All](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051323/5480ff49b4af9fa5158b5e79/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
The form of Past Continuous is
past tense of be + verb + ing
was walking
![Page 22: Verb Tenses Solved Once and for All](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051323/5480ff49b4af9fa5158b5e79/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
• In the Present Continuous tense, a time or another action is implied in the meaning “right now,” at moment of speaking.
• In the Past Continuous tense, however, this time point has to be explicitly marked by means of either a prepositional phrase of time “at 3 last night” or a clause of time “when it started to rain” in the past.
![Page 23: Verb Tenses Solved Once and for All](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051323/5480ff49b4af9fa5158b5e79/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

For example...
“He walked to school.”
The action took place in the past,
is finished, and is completely
unrelated to the present.

“The raven flew to Dehan’s house.”
The action took place in the past,
is finished, and is completely
unrelated to the present.
