Learn English Tenses: PRESENT PERFECT CONTINUOUS

Great approach! I have been improving since I started watching your videos.

Beto2016

Thank you Rebecca! You have been teaching English very well for a long time.

kendyosiro

Well done, I’ve been loving this site.

wesleyjrz

(well done . I have been loving this site ) this mistake bro. Love =>Stative Verbs…. I have loved this site

alpozkan

Dear Teacher Rebecca in question 3 may I suppose that she will reach for 2 o clock? I think if the appointment was 2oclock in this case instead of for 2oclock it must be at 2 o’clock!

Mohammad mostaan

Wasleyjrz Bro. Love is a stative verb. You can’t use sative verbs in continuous tenses. You would have said
01)I love this site.
02)I loved this site.
03)I did not love this site.
04)I have loved this site

Peterthepol

I have got straight 10/10. It is 100%. In fact , I am very familiar with present prefect tense and present prefect continuous tense. I have liked for about a decade. I have been using both tenses since I was in high school student. They are very instrumentals while writing a thesis.

Jose5021

Dear teacher Rebecca you tried to do your best to teach us as possible as it is possible , but I got 90 of 100 in quize nu.3 if the answer tobe as for 2.00hours ,does it will not be correct?

Mohammad mostaan

Love is a state verb. You cant use it with a continuous tense

younes aboulfadl

Hello teacher , you are using the verb to think as an example for the present perfect continuous , i think you had just forgotten the verb think it’s a stative verb

It had been provided and it has been arranged are in passive forms( be + PP).

g656

Hi guys! I have a question.

10:19 of the video: Rebecca is saying that we are not supposed to use stative verbs (such as think, love, believe) with any continuous tense including the Present Perfect Continuous Tense.

18:22 of the video: Rebecca is saying: “I have been thinking about changing my job.”

I am puzzled. Should I use the verb “think” which is being stative in the PPC tense or not?

Oana2020

I agree with you on that. Ms. Rebecca could you clarify on this question. Thank you.

g656

Or maybe we should say “I have thought” or I was thinking” instead of saying “I have been thinking”. :)

g656

Hi, @Oana2020!
I have found in the internet that some stative verbs have continuous forms, but there is a difference in meaning.
For example :
State : I think she’s rich. (= I believe)
Action :I’m thinking about your plan. (=I’m considering)
State :I see you are in trouble. (=I understand)
Active : I’m seeing my lawyer tonight. (=I’m visiting)
Hope it helps! Happy learning @Oana2020!

I have got 10/10 .Thank you for the lesson. I have a doubt, as you said “think “is a stative verb and we can’t use with continuous tense but in the video you said one sentence with “think” in present perfect continuous … so little confused… could you plz reply.
And also I have purchased BEX English but I used only one day, next day it showed that I haven’t enrolled for the course . How can I get access to use it again?

Anu Shetty

The verb to think sometimes it’s with stative verbs and sometimes it is with dynamic verb , that’s depending to the meaning of sentence ,so this verbs think , fell,have they’re a both of them(stative and dynamic)

“To think” is one of those stative verbs, can we use in present perfect continuous tense
have a look sentence example
“I’ve been thinking about changing my job”
if we can use it (think) in this tense
but how

zahirkhan

Hi
I’m really confused with present perfect continuous and present continuous. you have said we can use present perfect continuous for showing we are doing an action from past to now and future (no matter how long it is), and also in the present continuous video you said we can use present continuous when we are talking about an action is temporary or around now (no matter how long it takes). I’m really confused. please explain which one is correct and why
I am washing clothes for 2 hours
I have been washing clothes for 2 hours
