Welcome to Everyday English Podcast.

Hello and welcome back to the Everyday English Podcast.
3
I'm Anna.
4
And I'm Mark.
5
It's so good to be here with you all today.
6
How are you feeling?
7
Ready to learn something new and useful?
8
I hope so, because today we're going to talk about something that is happening right now.
9
Anna!
10
Are you talking about our podcast?
11
Because we are recording right now.
12
Yes, we are.
13
That's a perfect example.
14
Today's topic is all about the present continuous tense.
15
It's the tense we use to talk about actions that are happening, well, now or around now.
16
Exactly.
17
It's one of the first and most useful tenses you can learn.
18
You can use it to tell someone what you're doing, ask questions, and describe the world around you.
19
It makes your English sound active and immediate.
20
So, if you've ever wanted to say, "I am learning English" while you're listening to this podcast, this is the episode for you.
21
That's the present continuous.
22
Let's break it down together.
23
We'll make it simple, clear, and full of examples you can use today.
24
Perfect.
25
So, let's start with the how.
26
Mark, how do we make the present continuous? is, or are.
27
Second, we need the main verb, but with -ing at the end.
28
Right.
29
So it's always subject + am, is, are, + verb with -ing.
30
Let's give some examples with I.
31
I say, "I am talking." Or, "I am sitting in my chair." And for he, she, or it, we use is.
32
For example, "She is listening to our podcast." "My cat is sleeping on the sofa." He does that a lot.
33
For you, we, and they, we use are.
34
We are explaining grammar.
35
You are learning English.
36
So, Anna, what are you doing right now?
37
I am speaking English, I am sitting in the studio, and I am smiling because this is fun.
38
Wonderful.
39
And I am drinking some water.
40
See?
41
Easy.
42
Now let's talk about when to use it.
43
The first and most important use is for actions happening right now, at this moment.
44
The action started a little while ago, it's happening now, and it will probably finish soon.
45
Yes.
46
For example, imagine you call your friend on the phone.
47
They might ask, "Hey, what are you doing?" And you would answer using the present continuous,
48
"I am cooking dinner," or "I am walking to the store." Let's play that out as a little conversation.
49
Anna, you be my friend calling me.
50
Hello, Mark.
51
What are you doing?
52
Oh, hi, Anna.
53
I'm watching a football match on TV.
54
It's very exciting.
55
What are you doing?
56
I am just relaxing, I am listening to some music.
57
See?
58
A totally natural, everyday chat, all present continuous.
59
But it's not only for this exact second.
60
We also use it for temporary situations.
61
Things that are happening around now, but maybe not at this very moment.
62
Good point.
63
For example, I could say, "I am reading a very good book this week.
64
I'm not reading it right now, but I'm in the middle of it.
65
It's a temporary activity for this week." Or, "She is studying for her exams this month.
66
It's a project that is in progress." We also use it for future plans, especially when the plan is fixed, like an appointment.
67
We often use a future time word.
68
Yes, like "I am meeting my friend tomorrow" or "We are traveling to Paris next week." It's a plan,
69
but we use the present continuous to talk about it.
70
It's very common.
71
So, three main uses: right now, temporary situations, and fixed future plans.
72
Let's practice a bit more with right now.
73
Mark, look around the studio.
74
What do you see?
75
What's happening?
76
Okay.
77
The microphone is recording our voices.
78
The clock is ticking and my computer screen is glowing.
79
Anna, what's happening outside your window?
80
Oh, the sun is shining, a bird is sitting in a tree, and a man is walking his dog.
81
It's a nice day.
82
Beautiful.
83
You're describing a living picture.
84
That's the present continuous.
85
Now we should talk about how to make the ing form.
86
Usually we just add ing, like talk, talking listen listening learn Learning.
87
But there are some small spelling rules.
88
If a verb ends with an e, like make or write, we drop the e and add ing.
89
So, make becomes making.
90
Write becomes writing.
91
And if a short verb ends with a consonant -vowel consonant, like sit or run, we often double the last letter,
92
so sit becomes sitting, run becomes running.
93
But don't worry too much about this at the start.
94
People will understand you if you say, "running." It's a common mistake.
95
Just try to listen for the correct form.
96
Absolutely.
97
Now, what about questions?
98
How do we ask in the present continuous?
99
It's simple.
100
We just move the "am," "is," or "are" to the front.
101
So instead of "you are listening," we ask,
102
"are you listening?" "Is he working today?" for "they" Are they coming to the party?
103
And for answers, we say, "Yes, I am," or, "No, I'm not." "Yes, she is," or, "No, she isn't." Let's do a quick example.
104
Anna, are you wearing blue today?
105
Yes, I am.
106
Mark, is it raining outside?
107
No, it isn't.
108
The sun is shining.
109
Great, and for negative sentences, we just add NOT after am, is, or are.
110
I am NOT sleeping.
111
He is NOT watching TV.
112
We are NOT playing football.
113
Now, we have to talk about verbs we usually don't use in the continuous form.
114
Ah, the state verbs.
115
This is a very common mistake, so listen carefully.
116
Some verbs describe a state, not an action.
117
They are about how we feel, what we think, what we own, or what we sense.
118
We usually use the simple present for these, even if we mean now.
119
For example, we say, "I like this song," not, "I am liking this song." The verb "like" is a state.
120
It's not an action you're doing at this moment.
121
Other state verbs are want, need, prefer, know, understand, remember,
122
believe, have, see, hear, smell, taste.
123
So you would say,
124
"I need some water." "I understand the lesson." "This coffee smells good." Not "is needing," "am understanding,"
125
or "is smelling." But English is tricky.
126
Sometimes we can use these verbs in the continuous form, but the meaning changes.
127
For example, have.
128
I have a car means I own it.
129
That's a state.
130
But I am having lunch means I am eating lunch.
131
That's an action or see i see a bird means with my eyes
132
but i am seeing my friend tomorrow means i am meeting them it's a future plan Don't let this confuse you.
133
For now, just remember the basic rule: feelings, thoughts, possession, and senses are usually in simple present.
134
Actions are in present continuous.
135
Let's put it all together with a longer practice.
136
Let's imagine a person's day.
137
Okay, so it's 8 a .m.
138
Sarah is in her kitchen.
139
What is she doing, Mark?
140
She is making breakfast.
141
She is boiling water for tea.
142
She is not eating cereal.
143
She prefers eggs.
144
Nice.
145
Now it's 9 a .m.
146
She is at work, but she is thinking about her holiday.
147
So she says, I am not working on my report right now.
148
I am planning my holiday.
149
I am going to the beach next month.
150
Perfect use for a future plan.
151
Now her co -worker comes to her desk.
152
He asks, "Hey Sarah, are you busy?" And she answers, "Yes, I am finishing an email.
153
Can I help you in five minutes?" Excellent!
154
Now, after work, she calls her mother.
155
Her mother asks, "What are you doing, dear?" Sarah says, "I am walking home from the station.
156
I am feeling a little tired." Wait, feel is a state verb.
157
We should say, I feel a little tired.
158
Very good catch, Mark.
159
That's exactly the kind of mistake to watch for.
160
She feels tired, but she is walking home.
161
Great example.
162
Thank you.
163
Let's do a quick recap of the key phrases we've used today.
164
We'll say them slowly.
165
Repeat after us if you can.
166
I am learning English.
167
He is watching TV.
168
They are cooking dinner.
169
Are you listening?
170
What are you doing?
171
I am not sleeping.
172
She is not working today.
173
We are meeting tomorrow.
174
I have a dog.
175
I am having lunch.
176
I see the tree.
177
I am seeing my family next week.
178
Wonderful.
179
Remember, the best way to learn this is to notice it.
180
Listen to people in movies or songs.
181
Try to describe what is happening around you, in your room or out the window.
182
Yes, just a few sentences a day.
183
My brother is playing a game.
184
My mother is reading a book.
185
The bus is coming.
186
It's powerful practice.
187
And don't be afraid of mistakes.
188
We all make them.
189
If you say, "I am liking it," people will understand you perfectly.
190
You are communicating.
191
That's the goal.
192
That's absolutely right.
193
Learning is a journey, and you are on that journey right now.

- Mark, how do we make the present continuous?
- Anna, what's happening outside your window?
- How do we ask in the present continuous?
- Anna, are you wearing blue today?
इस वीडियो का व्याकरण
वक्ता जिन संरचनाओं का सबसे अधिक प्रयोग करता है, वीडियो के असली शब्दों के साथ:
| संरचना | वीडियो में |
|---|---|
| क्रिया + -ing enjoy, keep, stop… + -ing — वे क्रियाएँ जिनके बाद -ing रूप आता है | love reading · Keep practicing · keep speaking |
| “should” से सलाह should + क्रिया — बताना कि क्या करना अच्छा है | should talk · should say |
| Present continuous am/is/are + -ing — जो अभी या इन दिनों हो रहा है | is happening · are recording · are happening |
| “will” से भविष्य will + क्रिया — फ़ैसला, वादा या अनुमान | We'll make · will probably finish · will understand |
ध्यान देने योग्य उच्चारण
वक्ता 22 बार संक्षिप्त रूपों का प्रयोग करता है, जैसे I'm, don't, you're। इन्हें वैसे ही छोटा बोलें जैसा आप सुनते हैं।
- “sh” और “zh” की ध्वनियाँ: shine /ʃaɪn/, possession /pəˈzɛʃn̩/
- लंबे शब्द — बलाघात सही रखें: continuous /kənˈtɪn.juː.əs/, temporary /ˈtɛmp(əˌɹ)ɛɹi/, communicate /kəˈmjuːnɪkeɪt/, importantly /ɪmˈpɔɹ.tənt.li/
इस वीडियो से अभ्यास कैसे करें
- पहले बिना बोले पूरा वीडियो एक बार सुनें और जो शब्द नहीं आते उन्हें लिख लें।
- सामान्य गति पर एक-एक वाक्य की शैडोइंग करें और हर वाक्य तब तक दोहराएँ जब तक आपकी लय वक्ता से न मिल जाए।
- अपनी आवाज़ रिकॉर्ड करें और मूल से तुलना करें, ख़ासकर continuous, verb, podcast जैसे शब्दों पर ध्यान दें।
शैडोइंग तकनीक क्या है?
शैडोइंग (Shadowing) एक विज्ञान-समर्थित भाषा सीखने की तकनीक है जो मूल रूप से पेशेवर दुभाषिया प्रशिक्षण के लिए विकसित की गई थी। विधि सरल लेकिन शक्तिशाली है: आप मूल अंग्रेज़ी ऑडियो सुनते हैं और तुरंत इसे ज़ोर से दोहराते हैं — जैसे वक्ता की छाया 1-2 सेकंड की देरी से। शोध से पता चलता है कि यह उच्चारण सटीकता, स्वर, लय, जुड़ी हुई ध्वनियाँ, सुनने की समझ और बोलने की प्रवाहशीलता में काफ़ी सुधार करता है।
