Let’s go through each sentence one by one. We’re using the
Present Continuous Tense, which means we’re talking about something happening
right now.
To make the present continuous tense, we use:
>
am / is / are + verb-ing
We pick “am”, “is”, or “are” based on who is doing the action:
- I → am
- He / She / It / Tom / Martin / The chef / The bird → is
- You / We / They → are
Then we add
-ing to the verb (like play → playing, sing → singing).
