Gambaran umumA1

Setiap continuous tense berbentuk be + kata kerja + -ing: will be untuk future, am / is / are untuk present, was / were untuk past.

Dalam pertanyaan, be diletakkan sebelum subjek; dalam kalimat negatif, ditambahkan not: isn't, wasn't, won't be.
Kata kerja utama selalu berakhiran -ing, di setiap tense dan untuk setiap orang.
Be berubah menurut orang pada present dan past; will be sama untuk semua.
Dalam percakapan dan pesan dipakai bentuk singkat: I'm, she's, they're, won't be.
