How would you rewrite this sentence using the present progressive

Question

.

Ustedes compran carne y pescado.

Mario navega por Internet.

Tu abuelo eschucha las noticas.

Yo leo un libro de historia.

Tu haces la limonada

Answer 1

You can still do what is suggested above. That way you learn more.

Answer 2

You do it with a conjugated form of estar + the gerund form of the verb that follows.

For example:

Yo hablo. I am speaking.

Take the gerund form of hablar: hablando.

Now use it in a sentence:

Yo estoy hablando. I am speaking.

So for your first sentence-

Mario navega por Internet.

You would say: Mario {estar} {navegar} por Internet. (Fill in the blanks with the correct form)

We do not do homework but only help with it.

estar + gerund
