The present progressive is formed using the following formula:

verb <em>estar</em> + <em>present participle </em>

Spanish present participles end in ndo, and is the equivalent of the English ending ing.


<h2>1. Right answer: </h2>

<em>Miguel Ángel y yo </em><em>estamos leyendo</em><em> el periódico </em>


Since <em>Miguel Ángel y yo</em> can be replaced by the subject pronoun for the first person plural <em>nosotros</em>, then we need to choose the conjugation of the verb estar that matches this person in the simple present, which is estamos. On the other hand, the present participle of the verb leer is leyendo. Finally, this sentence translates into:

<em>Miguel Ángel and I </em><em>are reading </em><em>the newspaper </em>


<h2>2. Right answer: </h2>

<em>Mónica y Ana </em><em>están confirmando</em><em> la reservación</em>


Since <em>Mónica y Ana</em> can be replaced by the subject pronoun for the third person plural <em>ellas</em>, then we need to choose the conjugation of the verb estar that matches this person in the simple present, which is están. On the other hand, the present participle of the verb confirmar is confirmando. Finally, this sentence translates into:

<em>Monica and Ana </em><em>are confirming</em><em> the reservation</em>


<h2>3. Right answer: </h2>

<em>Tú </em><em>estás oyendo </em><em>al agente de viajes. </em>


This sentence stands for the second person singular (tú). Hence we need to choose the conjugation of the verb estar that matches this person in the simple present, which is estás. On the other hand, the present participle of the verb oír is oyendo. Finally, this sentence translates into:

<em>You </em><em>are listening to</em><em> the travel agent</em>


<h2>4. Right answer: </h2>

<em>El aeropuerto </em><em>está cerrando</em>


This sentence stands for the third person singular. Therefore, the matching conjugation of the verb estar for this person in the simple present is está. On the other hand, the present participle of the verb cerrar is cerrando. Finally, this sentence translates into

<em>The airport </em><em>is closing</em>


<h2>5. Right answer: </h2>

<em>Yo </em><em>estoy escribiendo </em><em>sobre el campo</em>


This sentence stands for the first person singular (yo). Therefore, the matching conjugation of the verb estar for this person in the simple present is estoy. On the other hand, the present participle of the verb escribir is escribiendo. Finally, this sentence translates into

<em>I </em><em>am writing </em><em>about the field</em>
