One possible source of confusion is that many times the present indicative in Spanish will be transformed into a progressive form when interpreted into English. For example, something like "nosotros hablamos de una chica bonita" many times could be interpreted as "we are talking about a pretty girl". English has a strong preference for progressive forms, and it "sounds better" to say it this way, but it is not really technically accurate. As the others said, the true progressive is "estamos hablando".
