CHAPTER I PRELIMINARY

A. BACKGROUND

Tenses are a form of verb in grammar that shows the time of occurrence of an action or event and the stage of completion. In learning English, we know there are 16 tenses that must be learned to perfect our English. Tenses are also a rule for how to speak in English so that people who hear our conversation can understand the intent and purpose of our conversation. Understanding tenses is very useful for determining what changes we can make to the form of the verb according to the time it occurs. Therefore, tenses are important because when you use tenses, the meaning obtained from the sentence you make will be a different meaning. Among the forms of tenses, here we will discuss the present continuous tense ... It is important for you to learn this tense because this tense is one of the tenses that are often used in a conversation. The Present Continuous Tense is a tense that refers to the action that is taking place now or when the conversation is taking place. So the action had already begun, and it had not ended when the conversation took place. This tense can also be used to describe an event that occurs briefly and / or that has occurred in a long time span. This tense is also known as Present Progressive Tense. Because this tense can be used to explain an action that might or could be done in the future. In essence, Present Countinous Tense shows an event or condition that is happening now, often occurs, and can be carried out or continues into the future. B. PROBLEM FORMULATION o o o o
