Present Continuous

Use am/is/are + verb-ing for actions happening now or around now (temporary).

I am eating lunch.

She is reading a book.

They are playing outside.

Look — it is raining!

Spelling: run → running, write → writing, sit → sitting.

Use it for right now and temporary situations, often with now, at the moment, look, listen.

Common mistake: Using it for habits. Habits use the present simple ("I play every day"), not continuous ("I am playing every day").
