What is the present tense of Laying down or lying down in bed?
Lying down is for a person: You are lying down.Laying down is for an object: You are laying the pen downThere are many such verbs in English, where the transitive form of the verb may resemble the preterite of the intransitive form. For example fall and fell, sit and set, lie and lay. A lumberjack falls down, but he fells trees for a living; he sits down, but he sets his glass down on a table; and he lies down, but he lays his bed on the ground.Confusion between lie/lay may be due to the popular old (scary) nursery rhyme "Now I lay me down to sleep..." in which "me" = myself, and serves as a direct object of the transitive verb lay. This has led to the common error I lay down instead of I lie down.
