Unit 13 - Fun at the Park

I am playing with my friends in the park.

We are playing football.

My mother is talking to my friend's mother.

There are other kids in the park too. They are climbing a tree.

İngilizce konuşurken, bazen şu anda, konuşma anında yaptığımız şeylerden bahsederiz. Daha önce "am, is, are" kelimelerini görmüştük. Şimdi verdiğimiz örneklerde bu sözcüklerden sonra sonuna "-ing" eklenmiş fiiller geldiğini görüyoruz. Anlamlarını kavramaya çalışalım.
Two girls are playing on the seesaw.
A baby is playing with a ball.
Sammy and Zoe are riding their bicycles.
My brother is sliding.
My sister is running. She is very tired.

Burada verdiğimiz örneklerin hepsinde şu anda devam eden aktiviteler anlatılıyor. Türkçe'de buna "şimdiki zaman" diyoruz.
It is 9 o'clock.
I am writing a letter.
My mother is cooking.
My father is watching TV.
My grandmother is reading the newspaper.
My grandfather is talking to my aunt.
What are you doing?

"am, is, are" sözcüklerine yardımcı fiil denir.  Soru sormak için cümlede "am, is, are" dan hangisi kullanılmışsa, onu başa alırız.
Are you listening to music?
Are you drawing a picture?
Are they talking or playing a game?
Is he running?

-Are you playing football or basketball?
-We aren't playing football or basketball, we are playing volleyball.

John and Jack aren't playing with other kids. They are sitting on the bench.
