Present Participle






Ø  Participles. They’re verbs, they’re adjectives, they’re perfect and progressive, Adding -ing to the base form of a verb creates the present participle. For example, eat is the base form of the verb to eat. The present participle of eat is eating. Present participles always end in -ing.
Other examples of present participles include swimming, laughing, and playing.
The present participle can function as an adjective and modify nouns in sentences.
For example:
In the sentence “The winning athlete gets a trophy,” the present participle winning describes the noun athlete.

Present participles appear in progressive (or continuous) verb tenses, which show when a verb or action was/is in the process of happening.
For example:
             A sentence in the present progressive tense is: “She is sitting now.”
