Question

Help plz dis is super hard dis is the hardest question ever!

Answer 1

A verb is used to describe an action. 

Example: Joan is running to the park to play frisbee.

The key words are: is running. 

So, in your question, since Uncle Joe is growing a beard, that'll mean your verb tense is present progressive. It's present progressive because he's growing something, and things that grow have a process to follow through. 

I hope I helped :)
