What is the present progressive form?

The present progressive (also known as the present continuous) is a verb tense that describes an action happening now, at this very moment. It's used to talk about things that are in progress or ongoing.

Here's how it's formed:

* Subject + am/is/are + verb-ing

Examples:

* I am walking to the store.

* She is reading a book.

* They are playing basketball.

* We are eating dinner.

Important Notes:

* The -ing ending is attached to the base form of the verb.

* The helping verbs am, is, and are are used depending on the subject.

* The present progressive can also be used to describe actions happening in the near future, especially if they are already planned. For example: "I am going to the cinema tomorrow."
