現在進行式的用法 @ 莓喵英文Fun

一、現在進行式的用法

1. 現在進行式是用來表達動作正在進行中的句型。

句型：主詞＋be 動詞＋V-ing….

注意如果單字字尾是「子音＋y」，形成動名詞時，字尾並不去 y，而直接加 -ing，字尾是「母音＋y」時，也是直接加 -ing。例：study → studying、cry → crying、 buy → buying、play → playing。

2. 現在進行式問句可以用疑問詞where、who、what ……等置於句首來問。

3. 現在進行式也有Yes / No 問句，形成的方式為將be 動詞置於句首，然後再接主詞與現在分詞。而其回答方式與第一到第三課之Yes / No 問句相似，只是詳答句的句型改為現在進行式。
句型：Be 動詞＋主詞＋V-ing…?

4. 現在進行式可於句尾加入時間副詞now，強調時間是現在。而在直述句中，now 也可以置於句首，其語氣比置於句尾更強烈。
例：Now Tom is running.
