Verwendung des Present Progressive Du benutzt das Present Progressive für: Eine im Ablauf befindliche Handlung (That plane is flying to Kennedy Airport.) Eine auf einen bestimmten Zeitraum begrenzte Handlung (I am working at the supermarket in my holidays.) Eine bereits abgesprochene Handlung in der Zukunft (At noon I am playing hockey with my friends.) Ganz wichtig: Beachte, dass es englische Zeiten gibt, für die es im Deutschen keine entsprechende Zeit gibt! Das Present Progressive ist eine davon. Beim Übersetzen musst Du Dir also sehr genau überlegen, ob Du das Simple Present ODER das Present Progressive verwenden musst! Besonders ins Auge gehen kann das bei folgendem Satz: 1. I love you. = Ich liebe Dich. (Simple Present > Bedeutung: Tatsache / Immer) 2. I am loving you. = Ich liebe Dich. (Present Progressive > Bedeutung: Zeitlich begrenzt > Jetzt liebe ich Dich, ABER ich weiß schon, dass es mit uns bald vorbei sein wird. Dies ist also ein Wink mit dem Zaunpfahl! Bildung des Present Progressive In der folgenden Tabelle findest Du die Bildung der englischen Zeitform Present Progressive. Beachte: Steht am Ende des Verbs ein e fällt dieses beim Anhängen von -ing weg. > dance dancing > She is dancing Zwei ee hingegen bleiben. > pee peeing > Oh no! The dog is peeing on the carpet! Der Endkonsonant nach einem kurzen, betonten Vokal wird verdoppelt. > sit sitting > He is sitting in a wonderful café. Ein l als Endkonsonant nach einem Vokal wird immer verdoppelt. > travel travelling > He is travelling around Scotland. Ein ie am Wortende wird zu y. > lie lying > She is lying on the grass. Auch bei dieser Zeitform benötigst Du für Verneinungen und Fragen ein Hilfsverb. Im Present Progressive hast Du es dabei sehr leicht. Verwende einfach die Form von to be (am / is oder are), die Du schon im positiven Satz hast. Für die Verneinung stellst Du einfach noch das Wörtchen not zwischen Hilfsverb und Verb+ing. Um eine Frage zu bilden, stellst Du die Form von to be an den Satzanfang.
