The sentences have been rewritten below in the present perfect continuous tense:

  • 1. I have been learning English for 3 years now.
  • 2. What green paint have you been doing on your hair?
  • 3. They have been working all day.
  • 4. How long has your little sister been playing football?
  • 5. We have been driving this car for 3 hours.
  • 6. He had been swimming in the cold swimming pool.
  • 7. They have been talking on the phone for hours.
  • 8. We have been reading in the library all afternoon.
  • 9. The baby has been crying all day.
  • 10. I am not having a good time in this new school.

The present perfect continuous tense is used to show that an action from the past has continued up to now.

It usually follows the pattern, Subject + an auxiliary verb in the present tense + an auxiliary verb in the past tense + a present participle.

An example is, "They have been working all day."

"They" is the subject, "have", and "been" are the auxiliary verbs in the present and past tenses while working is a present participle.
