To change a noun into a verb you add -ing. So when you see a word ending in -ing you know that it is the activity described by the word that is being used as a subject or an object. I swim {is the verb form} I like Swimming {like is the verb}{swimming is a noun describing the activity that happens when one swims} I am a man {am is the 1st person verb form of be} I am being a man {am is the verb} {being describes the activity under-way} The verb 'be' is used in this form is either in its imperative or infinative state: imperative means a command Be reasonable, be practical, be with me. infinitive is when it is used with the word 'to' To be or not to be. It is also another way of turning a verb into a noun.

Use "is being" when the subject is singular (he is being, it is being) and "are being" when the subject is plural (they are being, we are being). Both forms are used to describe actions that are happening at the moment or in a temporary state.
