Present Continuos
An action that is happening now.

RULES IN THE PRESENT COUNTINOUS “ING”

1. Si el verbo termina en “e”, eliminamos la “e” y agregamos “ING”. Examples:

2. Si el verbo termina en “ie”, la reemplazamos por “y” y agregamos “ING”

Die – dying lie – lying

3. Si el verbo es de una sola silaba y termina en C+V+C, duplicamos la última

consonante y agregamos “ING”. Run – running
EXCEPCIONES:
Snow – snowing fly – flying cry - crying

4. Si el verbo es de 2 silabas a mas, termina en C+V+C+ y lleva mayor fuerza de voz

en la última silaba, duplicamos la última consonante y gregamos “ING”. Examples:

5. Todos los demás verbos que no cumplan con ninguna de estas reglas
simplemente agregamos “ING”.
