    The document discusses the formation of verbs in the present continuous and present simple tenses in English. For the present continuous, most verbs take -ing, one-syllable verbs with vowel-consonant-consonant patterns double the final consonant, and verbs ending in -e drop the -e and take -ing. For the present simple, most verbs take -s in third person singular, verbs ending in certain letter patterns like -ss take -es, and verbs ending in consonant+y drop the y and take -ies.
