Present Continous (1)

1.- we form the Present Continous like this:

be+ -ing form

Here are the forms of the Present Continuos:

Positive

Full Form

You are eating
he/she/it is eating
we are eating

Short Form

He's eating
We're eating
They're eating

Negative

Full Form

I am not eating

we are not eating
they are not eating

Short Form

I'm not eating
you aren't eating
he isn't eating

2.- To make the -ing form, we add -ing to the verb:

listen --> listening play --> playing
work --> working read --> reading

3.- But notice irregular spellings:

win --> winning get --> getting
shop --> shopping sit --> sitting
swim --> swimming travel -->travelling
dance -->dancing write -->writting
shine -->shinning

4.-we use the Present Continuos:
--> to talk about actions and situations in progress now

eg. the bus is coming

--> to talk about action and situations in progress around now, but not exactly at the moment we speak:

eg. what are you doing these days?

A: I'm learning spanish.




Shadows in red song
I see clearly now your face
Something so pure
Something I'm sure will be lost
I'm staring at the shadows in red
Sends me chills now
I see clearly everything except your face
I'm lonely scared to be lonely
Thought until death meant
My fears were safe within now they begin
To be lonely scared of the only
Thing I knew best so I thought I knew everything
Until now I see I'm lost and lonely
Shatters everything in my head consumes me
Blinded by one thing obsessed with the need to be loved
Screams become whispers instead assuming
I know I'm losing all the things closest to me
I'm lonely scared to be lonely
Thought until death meant
My fears were safe within
Now they begin to be lonely
Scared of the only thing I knew best
So I thought I knew everything
Until now I see I'm lost and lonely
Angels swirl around me
So now I know I'm not alone
Only scared to be lonely
Thought until death meant
My fears were safe within now they begin
To be lonely scared of the only
Thing I knew best so I thought I knew everything
Until now I see I'm lost and lonely
