One use of the present continuous tense is to talk about actions and events
that are happening in the present.
PAST ------> NOW ------> FUTURE
It is formed by adding “-ing” to the verb.
For example,
work > working
clean > cleaning
study > studying
If the verb ends in an “e”, the “e” is removed before adding “-ing”.
For example,
have > having
write > writing
If the verb ends in a “t”, this consonant is doubled before adding “-ing”.
For example,
get > getting
let > letting
