Present Continuous Tense:
Пояснение: Present Continuous Tense, also known as the Present Progressive Tense, is used to describe actions that are happening at the moment of speaking or that are in progress. In Russian, it is known as "настоящее продолженное время." To form the Present Continuous Tense, we use the verb "to be" in the present tense followed by the main verb in the present participle form ("-ing" form). The structure is as follows:
Subject + am/are/is + Verb (ending in -ing)
