Grammar : Present Continuous and Past Continuous

Present Continuous

We use the present continuous (am/is/are + -ing) to talk about temporary


things which have begun but haven't finished. They are often happening now, at
this moment.

Here are some examples of things happening now.

 I'm just uploading some photos to Facebook and I'm sending a message
to Billie.
 We're all riding camels and the sun's shining.
 They're waiting for me to get off the phone!

Past Continuous

The past continuous shows us that the action was already in progress at a
certain time in the past.

 What were you doing at 8 p.m. last night? I was studying.

This means that I started studying before 8 p.m. and I continued after 8 p.m.

The past continuous can also show that an activity was in progress for some
time, not just for a moment.

 We were cleaning the house all morning.

We make the past continuous with was or were and the -ing form of the verb.

 She couldn't come to the party. She was working.


 Three years ago, we were living in my home town.
 I tried to give him some advice, but he wasn't listening.
 What were you doing this time last year?
