*. we normally form the present contiuou by using the present of the verb "TOBE"(am is are )

with the present participle( Verb + ing )

1. The normal rule is to add"ing"to the Infinitive form

2. The verbs ending in one"e"we omit the "e"and add "Ing"

Example:i am smoking .

she is coming.

*Note: Verb ending in "ee"we do not omit an"e"we add "Ing"

Example: she is agreeing my answer. 

* Note: die + ing = dying 

lei + ing = lying 

age + ing = ageing 

3. If the verbs have one syllable with vowel+ one consonant, the continuous is doubled 

Example: rob + ing = robbing
