Answer:
The answer: "departing" (Example sentence: She is departing.)
Explanation:
Present participle- this is a form of a verb that uses <em>ing</em>. It is used to show the Present Continuous Tense. This tense is also known as the "Present Progressive Tense" and<em> it means that an ongoing action is actually happening right now. </em>It could also mean that the action can take place in the future.
For example:
I am eating my lunch.
She is cooking in the kitchen.
The present participle is preceded by an <u>auxiliary verb (BE verb).</u> In the example above, these are <em>"am</em>" and <em>"is."</em> These are helpful in forming the tenses.
In the sentence "She is departing." The auxiliary verb here "is" while the present participle verb is "departing."
