 THE
PRESENT
PROGRESSIVE
PRESENTATION:
The Present Progressive or
Continuous is used in English to
discuss ongoing situations that have
started but have not yet come to an
end: It's raining (It's raining). This
verb is often used to describe
situations that we have before our
eyes and we know that adults develop
as we speak. Therefore, very often
the Present Progressive is
accompanied by adverbs or adverbial
expressions as now, at the moment, at
present, currently etc.
Formas del Present Progressive o Continuous:
1. Forma afirmativa
El Present Progressive o Continuous es una forma verbal compuesta por el
auxiliar TO BE, conjugado en función del sujeto de la frase, y por la la forma
de participio presente del verbo principal (V+ing).
I am reading the newspaper.
He is having a shower.
We are playing tennis.
2. Forma interrogativa
Dado que el Present Progressive contiene el verbo TO BE como auxiliar, la
forma interrogativa se obtiene invirtiendo el órden del auxiliar y del sujeto:
Are you reading the newspaper?
Is he having a shower?
Are they playing tennins?
3. Forma negativa
La forma negativa del Present Progressive consiste en la forma negativa del
verbo TO BE acompañada por el participio presente del verbo principal:
I’m not reading the newspaper.
He isn’t having a shower.
We aren’t playing tennis.
Forms of the Present Progressive or Continuous:
1. AFFIRMATIVELY
The Present Progressive or Continuous is a form composed of the auxiliary verb TO BE,
conjugated according to the subject of the sentence, and the present participle form of the
main verb (V + ing).
I am reading the newspaper.
He is having a shower.
We are playing tennis.

2. INTERROGATIVE
Since the Present Progressive contains the verb TO BE and auxiliary, the interrogative
form is obtained by reversing the order of the auxiliary and the subject:
Are you reading the newspaper?
Is he having a shower?
Are they playing tennins?

3. NEGATIVELY
The negative form of the Present Progressive is the negative form of the verb TO BE
accompanied by the present participle of the main verb:
I'm not reading the newspaper.
I is not having a shower.
We aren't playing tennis.
Reglas de ortografía para el participio presente
1. Cuando el verbo acaba en “e” normalmente la “e” cae delante de la terminación -ing:
make – making; take – taking.
2. Cuando se trata de un verbo monosilábico acabado en una sola vocal seguida por una
consonante, la consonante final se duplica delante de la terminación -ing:
stop – stopping; sit -sitting; win – winning.
Pero fijaros que cuando hay más de una vocal en el verbo, no duplicamos la consonante final:
rain – raining
3. Cuando se trata de un verbo bisilábico cuya sílaba tónica es la segunda, la consonante final
se dobla delante de la terminación - ing:
begin – beginning; prefer – preferring.
Pero si la sílaba tónica es la primera no existen modificaciones:
visit – visiting; open – opening
Excepción:
En inglés británico, los verbos bisilábicos con accento en la primera sílaba acabados en “l”
como “travel” doblan la “l” delante de la terminación - ing (travelling). En inglés americano,
no se dobla la consonante (traveling).
4. No existen modificaciones cuando el verbo acaba en vocal o consonante + y:

play – playing; study – studying

5. Los verbos acabados en -ie cambian este grupo de vocales por una y delante de la
terminación -ing: die – dying
Spelling rules for the present participle

1. When the verb ends in "e" normally "and" falls before the ending-ing:
make - making; take - taking.
2. When it is a verb monosyllabic finish one vowel followed by a consonant, the final consonant is
doubled before the ending-ing:
stop - stopping, sit-sitting, win - winning.
But look that when more than one vowel in the verb, not double the final consonant:
rain - raining
3. When it is a bisyllabic verb which is the second syllable, the final consonant is doubled before the
ending - ing:
begin - beginning; prefer - preferring.
But if the first syllable is no modifications:
visit - visiting; open - opening
Exception:
In British English, verbs bisilábicos with accent on the first syllable ending in "l" and "travel"
double the "l" before the ending - ing (traveling). In American English, not double the consonant
(traveling).
4. There are no changes when the verb ends in a vowel or consonant + y:
play - playing; study - studying
5. Verbs ending in-ie vowel change this group a and before the ending-ing:
die - dying
