Present Progressive Tense of Spanish

Present Progressive Tense of Spanish The current dynamic tense of Spanish is framed with the basic current state of estar followed by a current participle, otherwise called an ing word. Contrasts Between Progressive and Simple Tenses In this manner, the current dynamic types of comer are: Estoy comiendo. I am eating.Ests comiendo. You are eating.Est comiendo. You/he/she are/is eating.Estamos comiendo. We are eating.Estis comiendo. You are eating.Estn comiendo. You/they are eating. Something you may see immediately is that the straightforward current state can likewise be deciphered a similar way. Accordingly comemos can likewise mean We are eating. So whats the distinction? The principle contrast is that, similar to the next dynamic action word shapes, the current dynamic (otherwise called the present constant) tense underlines the procedure, or that something is in progress, more than the straightforward present does. The distinction can be an unobtrusive one, and there isnt constantly a major contrast in importance between the basic present and the current dynamic. Once more, the issue is one of accentuation. You may ask a companion,  ¿En que piensas? or on the other hand  ¿En que ests pensando? what's more, the two of them would mean What are you thinking about? However, the last places more accentuation on the reasoning procedure. In certain unique circumstances (however not all), the undertone of the Spanish dynamic may be passed on in a sentence, for example, What are you thinking? where the English verbal accentuation gives a slight difference in importance. How the Present Progressive Is Used Here are a few instances of sentences where the in-progress nature of the action words activity can be seen: Estoy escribiendo el plan de negocios para mi empresa. (I am composing the field-tested strategy for my enterprise.)Estamos estudiando la posibilidad de hacerla bianualmente. (We are considering the chance of doing it biannually.) ¿Le estn saliendo sus primeros dientitos? (Are his first infant teeth developing out?)Me estoy rompiendo en pedazos. (Im self-destructing. Truly, Im breaking in pieces.)Los libros electrã ³nicos estn ganando popularidad. (Electronic books are picking up prominence.) The current dynamic can recommend that something is occurring at the present time, and once in a while it can demonstrate that the activity is something surprising or prone to be of brief length:  ¿Quà © es esto que estoy sintiendo? (Whats this Im feeling now?)No me molestes. Estoy estudiando. (Dont trouble me. Im studying.)⠿ã‰sto es lo que ests diciendo? (This is the thing that youre telling me?)Puedo ver que ests sufriendo. (I can see youre languishing.) Furthermore, some of the time, the current dynamic can be utilized for nearly the inverse, to demonstrate that something is continually occurring again and again, despite the fact that it may not be going on right now: Sabemos que estamos comiendo maã ­z transgã ©nico. (We realize we are continually eating hereditarily built corn.)Las unidades se estn vendiendo ilegalmente en los Estados Unidos. (The units continue being sold unlawfully in the United States.)Los barcos de aluminio satisfarã ­an bien si usted est pescando mucho en los rã ­os. (The aluminum pontoons would be very reasonable in the event that you are angling constantly in streams.) Remember that while a significant number of the example sentences here are interpreted utilizing the current dynamic in English, you shouldnt routinely make an interpretation of that English structure to Spanish that way. Spanish understudies every now and again abuse the dynamic, somewhat on the grounds that it is utilized in English in manners that it isnt in Spanish. For instance, the English sentence We are leaving tomorrow, would be irrational whenever interpreted utilizing the Spanish present dynamic, as Estamos saliendo would normally be comprehended to mean We are leaving now or We are leaving. Other Progressive Tenses Dynamic tenses can likewise be shaped by utilizing different tenses of estar. Albeit a portion of the tenses are only here and there utilized, they are utilized a lot of like their English partners. Similarly as with the current state, the utilization of a dynamic as opposed to straightforward tense puts an accentuation on the proceeding with nature of the activity. A model is the preterite dynamic, which demonstrates that an activity proceeded over some undefined time frame yet reached an unmistakable conclusion. This can be found in this sentence: La compaã ±ia estuvo comprando derechos de agua. (The organization was purchasing water rights.) A similar sentence could be rephrased into the blemished dynamic (La compaã ±ia estaba comprando derechos de agua) without an adjustment in interpretation, however its importance would change marginally. In the flawed, the sentence doesnt obviously show that the buying reached a conclusion. Dynamic tenses can even be framed utilizing the ideal tenses of estar. For instance, the future flawless dynamic is utilized in this sentence: Habrã © estado viajando aproximadamente 24 horas. (I will have been going around 24 hours.) Key Takeaways The dynamic tenses are shaped by joining a type of estar with the current participle or gerund.The dynamic tenses stress the proceeding with nature of the action.English speakers ought to be mindful so as not to abuse the dynamic tenses in Spanish, which utilizes them less as often as possible than English does.
