are + present participle 4The present participle is the form of a verb ending with -ing. For example: show + ing = showing come + ing = coming 4You have to double the last letter of some verbs before you add -ing. For example: get + ing = getting rob + ing = robbing nod + ing = nodding stop + ing = stopping jog + ing = jogging swim+ ing = swimming 4Notice that the verbs above are all short verbs of just one syllable. They all end with a consonant such as b, d, g, m, p, t and have only one vowel before the consonant. 4If a verb ends in e, you usually have to drop the e before you add -ing. For example: chase + ing = chasing cycle + ing = cycling drive + ing = driving smile + ing = smiling
