The sun is shining!’ • - ‘Are you doing your homework?’ • Vorm: • Am, is, are + ing-vorm • Bijvragendevorm en ontkennendevorm am, is, are + not + ing-vorm (omdat ‘to be’ functioneertalseenhulpwerkwoord en dusnietnogeens ‘do’ alshulpwerkwoordnodigheeft).

Of: ‘I am doing a computer course’ -> tijdelijk, want de curcus is bijvoorbeeld van november tot maart. • -bij trends en veranderingen -> ‘I am walking to school this week’ -> tijdelijk, omdatmijnfietskapot is.

  6. Present Simple • NOTA BENE! • De volgendewerkwoorden, de zogenaamde ‘state verbs’, worden NIET gebruikt in de Present Continuous maar in de Present Simple! • Ditzijn: -Verbs of possession – to own, to have, to belong. (Although you can say "I am having a party", it doesn't mean you own the party, it means you are hosting a party.) ‘ I have a motorbike’ and NOT ‘ I’m not having a motorbike’. • -Verbs of the mind – believe, understand, know, think (betekenis: mening), forget. ‘I am thinking’ does occur but it means that you’re thinking about something at that moment and it does not refer to a general opinion. • -Verbs of emotion – love, hate, detest, like, etc. • -Verbs of the senses – see, hear, smell, taste. "I'm seeing the doctor tomorrow" is possible but it means I am going to visit the doctor and does not refer to your sight, but "I see the doctor" means the doctor is standing in front of you.) • -Verbs of geographical location – lie. ("London lies on the River Thames".)
