When you can use the word 'ing' example eat eating?
We use the ing form with our tenses (present, past, future, etc) to emphasize action that continues or progresses for a period of time. We call these forms of our tenses Continuous or Progressive (you will see both terms for the same thing). These actions don't start and then stop; they continue.A. Present continuous - I am eating my dinner now so I am busy for a while.B. Past continuous - I was eating my dinner last night when my sister called me.C. Future continuous - Soon I will be eating my dinner for a while but I can talk now.D. Present perfect continuous - I have been eating my dinner at 8 PM for many years. (This has continued for many years up to the present moment and hasn't stopped yet. Each occurrence was a continuous action).E. Past perfect continuous - I had been eating my dinner at 8 PM for many years until I decided to eat earlier at 7 PM. (A previous action continued for many years in a continuous manner each time before a certain event occurred - I suddenly changed my habits)There are other tenses that use the continuous/progressive but we don't use them very much at all. So adding the continuous form to a tense just emphasizes action that is continuing. We picture ourselves in the middle of the action as it is, was or will be occurring. It is not action that started and stopped.
How tenses can be teach?
How can tenses be taught?Tenses can be difficult to teach because cultures have different concepts about time. The difference between I eat and I am eating can be difficult for some learners.It is important to understand the contexts of different verb tenses so they can be made clear to the leaner. eg I eat is used for routines and not for actions happening now ( I am eating ).Start with the simple tenses, past simple and present simple. Then present continuous and past continuous. Show how the tense is formed eg be verb + verb + ing for continuous tenses. Give the various functions for each tense eg present simple is used for things that are true now, habits and things that are always true. = Form and function.Go on to the more difficult present perfect past perfect / continuous and future tenses etc.Always teach in a meaningful context.A good book is "teaching Tenses" by Rosemary Aitken published by Longman.
