Transcript
EL PRESENTE PROGRESIVO

The present progressive tense is used to express an action that is
presently going on. The action of the verb is happening RIGHT NOW!

To form the present progressive, you use the present tense of the
verb estar + a present participle. THIS VERB MUST HAVE BOTH
PARTS!! DON’T JUST USE THE PARTICIPLE.

A present participle is formed by removing the –AR and adding –ANDO
or by removing the –ER/-IR and adding –IENDO .

Note the difference in meaning:
Yo estudio el español.
=
I study Spanish.
I do study Spanish.
I am studying Spanish (in general).
Yo estoy estudiando el español. = I am studying Spanish.
(right now, right this second)
IF A SENTENCE IS NEGATIVE, PLACE “NO” IN FRONT OF THE CONJUGATED
FORM OF ESTAR. (Yo NO estoy prestando atención.)
PRESENT PARTICIPLES FOR STEM CHANGING VERBS:
AR verbs ignore the stem change. (jugar becomes jugando)
ER verbs ignore the stem change. (volver becomes volviendo)
IR VERBS CHANGE (O to U instead of ue, E to I instead of ie)
(example durmiendo, example mintiendo)
IRREGULAR PARTICIPLES:
IR is YENDO in the participle.
OTHER IRREGULARITIES:
For ER and IR verbs: You may NOT have an unaccented I between two other
vowels. When that happens, you change the I to Y.
Examples: Leer:
Creer:
Oír:
Traer:
Destruir:
leiendo changes to leyendo
creiendo changes to creyendo
oiendo changes to oyendo
traiendo changes to trayendo
destruiendo changes to destruyendo
Present Progressive with pronouns (direct object, indirect object or reflexive)
1. You may either place the pronoun BEFORE the entire verb
Example: Lo estoy leyendo.
Me estoy lavando.
2. You may ATTACH the pronoun to the end of the participle.
Example: Estoy leyéndolo.
Estoy lavándome.
NOTE: When attaching, add an accent mark. (ándo and iéndo)
