Understanding the Armenian Present Continuous Tense
The Present Continuous Tense in Armenian is used to describe actions that are happening right now. It's like when you are doing something at this very moment.
Important Points
- It is used for actions happening at the moment of speaking.
- It can describe temporary actions or situations.
- It often uses time expressions like 'now' or 'at the moment'.
In Armenian, to form the Present Continuous Tense, we use the verb 'to be' in the present tense and add the main verb with a specific ending.
Examples
- Ես կարդում եմ գիրքը։ (I am reading the book.)
- Նա գրում է նամակը։ (He/She is writing the letter.)
- Մենք խաղում ենք բակում։ (We are playing in the yard.)
Remember, the Present Continuous Tense is all about what is happening right now. It's like catching an action in the middle of it!
