The document discusses the present continuous tense in English, which is used to talk about actions happening now. It explains that the present continuous is formed using the present form of the verb "to be" plus the verb ending in "-ing", and provides examples of affirmative, negative, and interrogative sentences. It also notes some spelling variations when adding "-ing", such as dropping the "-e" or doubling consonants depending on the base verb.
