Answer:

Explanation:

Present Progressive of Dormir

We use the present progressive to talk about what someone is doing at the very moment of speaking. So use this tense to say that someone is sleeping now.

To form the present progressive, we conjugate the verb estar in the present and we add the present participle of dormir, which is durmiendo. Notice the change in the stem vowel from o to u!

The good news is that the second part doesn't change, so you only need to conjugate the first one. Take a look at the result:

VERB: dormir (dohr-MEER) - to sleep

Subject

Pronoun Present Progressive Pronunciation Translation

yo estoy durmiendo (ehs-TOY door-MYEHN-doh) I am sleeping

tú estás durmiendo (ehs-TAHS door-MYEHN-doh) you are sleeping

él/ella

usted está durmiendo (ehs-TAH door-MYEHN-doh) he/she is sleeping

you (formal) are sleeping

nosotros/

nosotras estamos durmiendo (ehs-TAH-mohs door-MYEHN-doh) we are sleeping

vosotros/

vosotras estáis durmiendo (ehs-TIYS door-MYEHN-doh) you all are sleeping

ellos/ellas

ustedes están durmiendo (ehs-TAHN door-MYEHN-doh) they are sleeping

you all are sleeping

Note: Only Spaniards use the form vosotros/as when addressing a group of people in an informal situation. In the rest of the Spanish-speaking countries, everyone uses the form ustedes.

Examples in the Present Progressive

Laura has just arrived home. She has her headphones on and is singing loudly, so her mom says that her sister, Carla, is sleeping:

¡Shhh! ¡No hagas ruido! (Shhh! Be quiet!) Carla está durmiendo. (Carla is sleeping.)

Laura asks where her dad is. Her mom answers:

Papá está durmiendo también. (Dad is sleeping as well.)

Los dos están durmiendo en el salón. (Both of them are sleeping in the lounge.)
