When do you use it:
The present perfect continuous tense (also known as the present perfect progressive tense) shows that something started in the past and is continuing at the present time. (WHEN TIME IS EMPHASISED)
The present perfect continuous is formed using the construction has/have been + the present participle (root + -ing).
