the verb: Read – Reading Speak – Speaking

add ING in the end of the verb: Have – Having Take - Taking

replaced by –Y and –ING is added. Die – Dying Lie – Lying

When the verb is monosyllable or Swim – Swimming Travel – Travelling

disyllable and ends in consonant + vowel Cut – Cutting Run - Running
+ consonant (CVC), the last consonant

To snow – snowing // To fix – fixing

If the stressed syllable is the first, the final letter is not doubled.
open – opening // happen – happening

We can also use continuous verbs in the past or future, just replacing the auxiliaries
verbs. In the past, we use WAS and WERE and in the future we use WILL BE.
