Present continuous

We praten over de ‘present continuous’ als we het hebben over iets waar je momenteel (nog) mee bezig bent. Het is dus al begonnen en nog niet afgelopen.

             

Start -------------------> Now

Past                                    Present

Vorm

Hoe vorm je dan de present continuous?

Is/are/am + ww + ing

I – am

You – are

He/she/it – is

We – are

They - are

Hoe ziet het er dan uit in een zin:

I am reading a book right now.

She is dancing for hours now.

My classmates and I are working on a project for days.

Negatief? Je voegt dan ‘not’ toe. Isn’t – aren’t – am not

I am not showering, I think your brother is.

Present simple 

De present simple (tegenwoordige tijd) gebruik je bij feiten, gewoontes en ‘vaste’ rituelen. De present continuous gebruik je als je over iets praat dat momenteel nog bezig is of een afspraak in de nabije toekomst.

Present simple = ww (+ s bij shit-rule)

Signaalwoorden: "always, never, every day etc" 

2. Usually, I ....(work) as a secretary, but this summer I ....(study) French at a language school in Paris. That is why I am in Paris.

1. am working, am studying
2. work, study
3. work, am studying
4. am working, study

5. I'm sorry I can't hear what you (say) because everybody (talk) so loudly.

1. say, talk
2. says, talks
3. are saying, is talking
4. is saying, are talking

Uitleg

Wanneer gebruiken we de past simple? (verleden tijd)

Om te zeggen dat iets in het verleden gebeurde en voorbij is.

For example - She talked to her friend yesterday.

Uitleg

What does a past continuous look like?

+ was / were + werkwoord + ing

Verschil:

De past continuous was al bezig en de past simple onderbreekt datgene. Een korte plotselinge gebeurtenis.

I was washing my hair when the doorbell rang.

He was running when his ankle broke.

You were cooking when the chicken fell.

The phone ____ (ring) when Peter ____ (come) home.

1. rang, was coming
2. was ringing, came

mee van doen hebt.
