  2. Present Progressive • Present progressive is something we have already seen, when we were working with “estar” • It’s used to talk about what someone is doing in the moment. • It corresponds to the gerund “-ing” in English (such as: I am walking).

  3. How to form • You have two parts: • A form of “estar” that goes with the subject. • Estoy, estás, está, estamos, estáis, están. • A form of the “-ando” or “-iendo”

  4. How to form the “-ing” part • Take off the “-ar” • Add “-ando” • Take off the “-er” or the “-ir” • Add the “-iendo” • Hablar → hablando • Conducir → conduciendo • Poner → poniendo

  5. What to do with “ir” stem-changing verbs • If the verb stem-changes in the present tense, it will stem change in it’s present participle form as well. • If it’s “e → i” it will stem change “e → i” • If it’s “o → ue” it will stem change “o → u” • Examples: • Pedir → pidiendo • Dormir → durmiendo • Jugar → jugando • Divertirse → divirtiéndose • Reírse → riéndose

  6. Verbs ending in –uir • With the verbs that end in “-uir” as well as “oír, leer or anything that ends in –aer (such as traer), you add a “y”. • Construir – construyendo • Disminuir – disminuyendo • Leer – leyendo • Oír – oyendo • Creer – creyendo • Traer - trayendo

  7. Examples • Estoy hablando ahora. • I am talking now. • Manuel está caminando al parque. • Manuel is walking to the park. • Mis padres están sirviendo café. • My parents are serving coffee. • Nos estamos vistiendo para salir. • We are getting dressed to go out.

  8. Pronouns? • Either before the conjugated verb. • Me estoy poniendo los pantalones. • Me los estoy poniendo. • Or attached to the end of the gerund. • Estoy poniéndome los pantalones. • Estoy poniéndomelos.
