Explicação:

Present Continuous >>> tempo verbal que expressa quando queremos falar de algo que está acontecendo no momento em que falamos.  Pode vir acompanhado de ''now'' - ''right now'' - ''at the moment''

Estrutura do Present Continuous

Verbo ''to be'' am - is - are + verbo -ing  + complemento

I                      am             cooking           dinner           at the moment.

John              is                playing          video game    now.

My sons        are              watching              TV            right now.

⇒  Regras para o uso do present continuous

∴ Quando o verbo termina com ''ie'', troca o ''ie'' por ''ying''

       die – dying

       lie – lying

∴ Se o verbo termina em ''e'' precedido de consoante, tira o ''e'' e acrescenta ''ing''

      dance - dancing

       come - coming

Observação: exceção para o verbo ''to be''

to be - being

∴ Quando o verbo termina em CVC - consoante - vogal - consoante e o verbo tem uma ou duas sílabas, dobra a última consoante e acrescenta ''ing'' . Mas se o verbo terminar em ''x'' ou ''w'', não se aplica essa regra.

      swim - swimming

       cut - cutting

       snow - snowing

∴ Se o verbo tiver uma ou duas sílabas e a sílaba tônica for a primeira, é só acrescentar ''ing''.

       open - opening

       happen - happening
