Introducción
El present progressive o present continuous (presente continuo) es la forma
continua del presente. En inglés se utiliza principalmente para acciones que están
teniendo lugar en el momento en que se habla o que solo están sucediendo
temporalmente.

James is travelling around Australia. He is staying at a youth hostel in a little Australian town. The
town is becoming more and more popular because of its beautiful beaches.

James is meeting his friend Brad in town tonight. Brad is working there as a tour guide over the
summer.

James is in the town centre now. Look! James is taking a picture of another tourist.

Uso
 sucesos que están teniendo lugar ahora mismo (now)

Ejemplo:
Look! James is taking a picture of another tourist.
 planes predeterminados o citas que ya se han concertado para un futuro
cercano

Ejemplo:
He is meeting his friend Brad tonight.
 acciones que suceden solo de forma temporal

Ejemplo:
James is travelling around Australia.
Brad is working there as a tour guide over the summer.

41
 sucesos que se están produciendo actualmente, aunque no en este mismo
momento

Ejemplo:
He is staying at a youth hostel.
 situaciones que están evolucionando, cambiando
Ejemplo:

The town is becoming more and more popular because of its beautiful
beaches.

Formación
Se utiliza el verbo auxiliar be y el verbo principal en gerundio, es decir, añadiendo
la terminación -ing al infinitivo.

afirmativa negativa interrogativa

I I am speaking I am not speaking Am I speaking?
he, she, it he is speaking he is not speaking Is he speaking?
you, we, they you are speaking you are not speaking Are you speaking?

Gerundios: excepciones
 Cuando el infinitivo acaba en e, esta se elimina (aunque en el caso de ee,
oe o ye no hay cambios).
Ejemplo:

come – coming
agree – agreeing
 En palabras con una vocal de pronunciación corta antes de la consonante
final, se dobla la consonante final (excepto si termina en w, y o x, que no se
duplicarán).

Ejemplo:
sit – sitting
(pero: mix – mixing)
 En inglés británico la l final tras una vocal se dobla siempre (no así en inglés
estadounidense).

Ejemplo:
travel – travelling (inglés británico), traveling (inglés estadounidense)
 Al final de la palabra se remplaza ie por y.

42
 Ejemplo:
lie – lying

Formas abreviadas
En el inglés, y principalmente en la lengua hablada, se unen los pronombres a
ciertos verbos, otorgándoles un matiz más natural.

Forma completa Forma abreviada Ejemplo

am (not) …’m (not) I’m (not) (nicht: I amn’t)
are …’re you’re
are not …’re not/… aren’t we’re not/we aren’t
is …’s he’s
is not …’s not/… isn’t she’s not/she isn’t

PRESENT CONTINUOUS

FORMACIÓN DEL "PRESENT CONTINUOUS"

El "present continuous" de cualquier verbo se compone de dos partes: el presente del

verbo to be + el "present participle" del verbo principal.

(Para formar el "present participle": raíz+ing, e.g. talking, playing, moving, smiling)

Afirmativa

Sujeto + to be + raíz + ing

She is talking.

Negativa

Sujeto + to be + not + raíz + ing

She is not (isn't) talking

43
 Interrogativa

to be + sujeto + raíz + ing

Is she talking?

EJEMPLOS: TO GO, "PRESENT CONTINUOUS"

Afirmativa Negativa Interrogativa

I am going I am not going Am I going?

You are going You aren't going. Are you going?

He, she, it is going He, she, it isn't going Is he, she, it going?

We are going We aren't going Are we going?

You are going You aren't going Are you going?

They are going They aren't going Are they going?

Nota: contracciones de las formas negativas: I'm not going, you're not going, he's not going etc.

FUNCIONES DEL "PRESENT CONTINUOUS "

Como ocurre con todos los tiempos verbales del inglés, la actitud del hablante es tan
importante como el momento en que ocurre la acción o el evento. Al emplear el
"present continuous", nos estamos refiriendo a algo que no ha terminado o está
incompleto

EL "PRESENT CONTINUOUS" SE UTILIZA:

44
  para describir una acción que está teniendo lugar en este momento: You are
using the Internet. You are studying English grammar.
 para describir una tendencia o una acción que está sucediendo en la
actualidad: Are you still working for the same company? More and more
people are becoming vegetarian.
 para describir una acción o evento futuros que ya están programados: We're
going on holiday tomorrow. I'm meeting my boyfriend tonight. Are they
visiting you next winter?
 para describir una situación o evento temporales: He usually plays the drums,
but he's playing bass guitar tonight. The weather forecast was good, but it's
raining at the moment.
 con "always, forever, constantly", para describir y enfatizar una sucesión de
acciones repetidas: Harry and Sally are always arguing! You're constantly
complaining about your mother-in-law!

¡CUIDADO! Hay algunos verbos que no suelen emplear la forma progresiva

VERBOS QUE NO SUELEN EMPLEAR LA FORMA PROGRESIVA

Los verbos de la siguiente lista suelen utilizar la forma simple porque hacen referencia
a estados, más que acciones o procesos.

 to smell
 to taste

OPINIÓN

 to assume
 to believe

 SEXTA SEMANA

PRIMERA SESION POSSESSIVE WITH ‘S

CASO POSESIVO / POSSESSIVE WITH ‘S

Conocido como el genitivo sajón es una forma que indica posesión y se emplea con
nombres de personas, colectivos, países y animales. Expresan una relación de
pertenencia entre dos elementos. Para formar el genitivo sajón, añada apóstrofo (') + s
al nombre. Si el nombre ya está en plural o termina en s, añada simplemente el apóstrofo
después de la s.
Ejemplo:

 The boy´s ball (un niño)

 The boys’ ball (dos o más chicos)

Observe que el número de bolas no importa. La estructura está influenciada por el

poseedor y no por el poseído.

58
 more than one
one ball ball

one boy the boy's ball the boy's balls

more than
one boy the boys' ball the boys' balls

Sustantivos propios (nombres)

Muy a menudo usamos posesivos con nombres:
 This is Mary's car.
 Where is Ram's telephone?
 Who took Anthony's pen?
 I like Tara's hair.

Cuando un nombre termina en s, usualmente lo tratamos como cualquier otro

sustantivo singular, y añadimos 's:
 This is Charles's chair.

Pero es posible (especialmente con nombres antiguos y clásicos) agregar

simplemente el apóstrofe ':
 Who was Jesus' father?

Plurales irregulares
Algunos sustantivos tienen formas plurales irregulares sin s (hombre → hombres). Para
demostrar la posesión, usualmente agregamos 's a la forma plural de estos sustantivos:

singular noun plural noun

my child's dog my children's

dog

59
 singular noun plural noun

the man's work the men's work

the mouse's the mice's cage

eat dinner together at 7:30pm.

On television I usually watch the News. My wife usually comes to tell me to take the rubbish
out, or wash the dishes.
Our children feed the dog and the cat before they go to bed and I tell them to go to the

to organise a meeting.
Once a month I report to my boss, but maybe you have to report to your boss more often. I

ADVERBS OF FREQUENCY
English Grammar Rules
We use some adverbs to describe how frequently we do an activity.

These are called adverbs of frequency and include:

Frequency Adverb of Frequency Example Sentence

100% always I always go to bed before 11pm.

90% usually I usually have cereal for breakfast.
80% normally / generally I normally go to the gym.
70% often* / frequently I often surf the internet.

57
 50% sometimes I sometimes forget my wife's birthday.
30% occasionally I occasionally eat junk food.
10% seldom I seldom read the newspaper.
5% hardly ever / rarely I hardly ever drink alcohol.
0% never I never swim in the sea.
* Some people pronounce the 'T' in often but many others do not.

The Position of the Adverb in a Sentence

An adverb of frequency goes before a main verb (except with To Be).

Subject + adverb + main verb

I always remember to do my homework.

He normally gets good marks in exams.

An adverb of frequency goes after the verb To Be.

Subject + to be + adverb

They are never pleased to see me.

She isn't usually bad tempered.

When we use an auxiliary verb (have, will, must, might, could, would, can, etc.), the adverb is placed
between the auxiliary and the main verb. This is also true for to be.

Subject + auxiliary + adverb + main verb

She can sometimes beat me in a race.

I would hardly ever be unkind to someone.
They might never see each other again.
They could occasionally be heard laughing.

We can also use the following adverbs at the start of a sentence:

Usually, normally, often, frequently, sometimes, occasionally

 Occasionally, I like to eat Thai food.

BUT we cannot use the following at the beginning of a sentence:

Always, seldom, rarely, hardly, ever, never.

We use hardly ever and never with positive, not negative verbs:

 She hardly ever comes to my parties.

 They never say 'thank you'.

58

Question forms & subject

Yes/No questions

 Is he a teacher? Yes he is.

 Can you swim? No, I can’t.
 Have they got a car? Yes they have.

To form yes/no questions where there is an auxiliary verb or a modal verb, we invert
the word order of a positive sentence. (He is a teacher > Is he a teacher?)

 Do you eat fish? No I don’t.

 Does she know you. Yes she does.
60
 When there is no auxiliary verb we use ‘do’ to form the question.

With question words

The same rules apply when there is a question word (‘what’, ‘where’, ‘when’, ‘why’, ‘who’,
‘which’, ‘how’, ‘how much’, ‘how many’)

 Where is the hotel?

 What can you smell?
 Who clean the classroom?

Where there is an auxiliary or modal verb, that verb is used to form the question.

 How do you get here?

 When do your parents get back?
 How much does it cost?

Where there is no auxiliary verb, we use do.

1. Without an auxiliary verb

Warning:
When what, who, which or whose is the subject or part of the subject, we do not use
the auxiliary. We use the word order subject + verb:

What fell off the wall? Which horse won?

Who bought this? Whose phone rang?

2. Without an auxiliary verb

Warning:
When what, who, which or whose is the subject or part of the subject, we do not use
the auxiliary. We use the word order subject + verb:

What fell off the wall? Which horse won?

Who bought this? Whose phone rang?

Compare

Who owns this Who is the subject of the sentence and this bag is the
bag? object. We use no auxiliary verb.

Who do you Who is the object of the sentence and you is the
love most? subject. We use the auxiliary verb do.

 3. There is - There are
1. English Grammar Rules

We use there is and there are to say that something exists.

1. Positive Sentences
We use there is for singular and there are for plural.

 There is one table in the classroom.

 There are many people at the bus stop.

We also use There is with uncountable nouns:

 There is ice cream on your shirt.

2. Contractions
The contraction of there is is there's.

 There's a good song on the radio.

66
  There's only one chocolate left in the box.

You cannot contract there are.

The negative is formed by putting not after is or are:

 There is not a horse in the field.

 There are not eight children in the school.

We almost always use contractions when speaking.

The Negative contractions are:

4. There aren't with ANY

When we want to indicate that a zero quantity of something exists we use there
aren't any.

 There aren't any people at the party.

 There aren't any trees in my street.

We also use this structure with uncountable nouns:

 There isn't any water in the swimming pool.

 There isn't any sugar in my coffee.

5. Questions
To form a question we place is / are in front of there.
Again we use any with plural questions or those which use uncountable nouns.
We also use there is / are in short answers.

 Is there a dog in the supermarket? - No, there isn't.

 Are there any dogs in the park? - Yes, there are.
 Is there a security guard in the shop? - Yes, there is.
 Are there any polar bears in Antarctica? - No, there aren't.
 Is there any ice-cream in the freezer? - Yes, there is.

6. How Many with Are There

If we want to find out the number of objects that exist we use How many in the
following form:

67
How many + plural noun + are there (+ complement).

 How many dogs are there in the park?

 How many students are there in your class?
 How many countries are there in South America?
 How many Star Wars films are there?

5. Nouns: countable and uncountable

1. Countable nouns

Some nouns refer to things which, in English, are treated as separate items which
can be counted. These are called countable nouns. Here are some examples:

a car, three cars

my cousin, my two cousins

a book, a box full of books

a city, several big cities

1. Singular and plural

Countable nouns can be singular or plural. They can be used with a/an and with
numbers and many other determiners (e.g. these, a few):

She’s got two sisters and a younger brother.

Most people buy things like cameras and MP3-players online these days.

These shoes look old now.

I’ll take a few magazines with me for the flight.

79
 2. Uncountable nouns

In English grammar, some things are seen as a whole or mass. These are called
uncountable nouns, because they cannot be separated or counted.

Some examples of uncountable nouns are:

Ideas and experiences: advice, information, progress, news, luck, fun, work

Materials and substances: water, rice, cement, gold, milk

Weather words: weather, thunder, lightning, rain, snow

Names for groups or collections of things: furniture, equipment, rubbish, luggage

Other common uncountable nouns include: accommodation, baggage, homework,

knowledge, money, permission, research, traffic, travel.

These nouns are not used with a/an or numbers and are not used in the plural.

We’re going to get new furniture for the living room.

Not: We’re going to get a new furniture for the living room. or We’re going to get new
furnitures for the living room.

We had terrible weather last week.

Not: We had a terrible weather last week.

We need rice next time we go shopping.

Some nouns always have plural form but they are uncountable because we cannot
use numbers with them.

I bought two pairs of trousers.

Not: I bought two trousers.

Other nouns of this type are: shorts, pants, pyjamas, glasses (for the
eyes), binoculars, scissors.
Warning:
Some nouns which are uncountable in English are countable in other languages
(e.g. accommodation, advice, furniture, information):

They can give you some information about accommodation at the tourist office.

80
Not: They can give you some informations about accommodations at the tourist
office.

Can you give me some advice about buying a second-hand car?

Not: Can you give me some advices about buying a second-hand car?

How much and How many

http://www.grammar.cl/english/how-much-how-many.htm

81
When we want to know the quantity or amount of something, we ask questions starting
with How much and How many.

1. HOW MUCH ...? - (Quantity)

How much is used with uncountable nouns.
HOW MUCH + UNCOUNTABLE NOUN

 How much time do we have to finish the test?

 How much money did you spend?
 How much sugar would you like in your coffee?
 How much paper will I need?
 How much milk is in the fridge?
 How much traffic was there on the way to work?

If the verb To Be is used with an uncountable noun, it is in singular form (= IS or WAS

etc.)

2. HOW MUCH ...? - (Price)

How much can also be used when we want to know the PRICE of something.
In this case, we can use How much with countable nouns (both singular and plural
nouns).

 How much is that painting?

 How much are those shoes?
 How much did your jacket cost?
 How much is the dress on display in the window?
 How much will it cost me?
 How much does it cost ?

3. HOW MANY ...? - (Quantity)

How many is used when we want to know the QUANTITY of something.
82
It is only used with plural countable nouns.
HOW MANY + PLURAL NOUN

 How many days are there in January?

 How many people work in your company?
 How many cousins do you have?
 How many books did you buy?
 How many countries are there in the world?
 How many students are in the class right now?
 How many chairs are there in this room?
 How many pieces of chocolate would you like?

4. Omitting the noun

Often the noun is omitted in the question when it is obvious what we are talking about.
A: I would like to buy some cheese. B: How much (cheese) would you like?
The noun cheese is not necessary after how much since we already know we are
talking about cheese. In fact, it is normally omitted to avoid sounding repetitive.
More examples:

 A: I need some coins. - B: How many do you need?

 A: I need some sugar. - B: How much do you need?

PRACTICE
1.Write c for countable and u for uncountable:

time - books - sugar - milk - pens - hair - chairs

meat - butter - pencils - bread - jam - friends - fingers

flour - apples - oil - cars - salt - houses

- cheese -

rice - tea - games - tomatoes - cream - honey - carrots

.
2. how much - we use with uncountable nouns
how many - we use with countable nouns.

Choose How much or How many

a) shirts do you buy?

b) books are there in your bag?

83
c) films doesTom see every day?

d) money do you spend every week?

e) friends does Luis have?

f) does it cost?

g) shoes are there in the wardrobe?

h) meat are you going to buy?

i) milk did you drink yesterday?

j) apples do you see?

DIALOGUE

3. Buying clothes
A:May I help you?
C:Yes, I'm looking for a pair of trousers.
A:What colour would you like?
C:Black.
A:And what size are you?
C:I'm not sure. Can you measure me?
A:[measures customer] You're a 34 inch waist. How about these?C:
What material are they? And How much are they?
A:Wool. They are $ 30
C:Do you have anything in cotton?

En la tabla anterior se vio las expresiones de tiempo que se utilizan con mayor frecuencia en el lenguaje
oral y escrito. Se usan para responder, principalmente, a las preguntas que empiezan con las palabras
when, what time y how long. Para usarlas en el contexto, es necesario que tengas en cuenta cuál es el
tiempo verbal que se usa, si te preguntan por tu pasado o acciones futuras.
En cuanto al uso de las preposiciones in, at y on a continuación se indicara en qué momento utilizar
correctamente cada una de ellas:
Usamos In cuando hablamos de:
• Tiempos del día: (In the morning, in the evening)
• Meses (In July)
• Estaciones (In spring)
• Años (In 1990)
• Siglos (In 21th Century)
Usamos On cuando hablamos de:
• Los días de la semana (On Friday)
• Días de la semana + parte del día (On Wednesday morning)
• Las fechas (On August 23rd)

Adverbios de frecuencia
Adverbios de frecuencia en inglés: always, sometimes, usually, often, never, etc son algunos adverbios
de frecuencia
Los adverbios de frecuencia en inglés se ubican la mayoría de las veces delante del verbo principal
 We have never been to London
Los adverbios de tiempo en inglés se pueden poner también al comienzo o final de la oración.
 Sometimes I go to the movies
Para las frases interrogativas, el orden es el siguiente: auxiliar + sujeto + adverbio + verbo.
 Do you often go to the beach?
Los adverbios de tiempo en inglés van siempre justo después del verbo to be, menos en el imperativo.
Los adverbios de tiempo en inglés van después de los verbos modales.
 You can always count on me.
87
Los adverbios de frecuencia en inglés expresan con qué periodicidad se hace un acción. “How often?”
se usa para preguntar por el tiempo de tales acciones.

There is there are

Las expresiones there is y there are en inglés se usan para señalar la existencia de un objeto, persona u
animal que se encuentra en determinado lugar. Estas expresiones traducidas significan "hay". Y para
usarlas correctamente se debe tener en cuenta el verbo tobe.

There is se usa cuando hablamos en singular y afirma que sí hay. También puede usarse en forma corta:
There's
There are se usa cuando hablamos en plural para indicar que sí hay.
En inglés utilizamos there is y there are para describir sitios o decir dónde están las cosas.
Significa "hay" pero, a diferencia del español, no es invariable.
 Forma afirmativa
There is an Apple
 Forma negativa
La forma negativa de there is y there are se formará de dos maneras:
1. añadiendo not = there is not, there are not
2. utilizando la contracción isn't y aren't = there isn't, there aren't
 Forma interrogativa
Del mismo modo que hacíamos con el verbo to be en presente pondremos primero el verbo
to be, es decir, is o are, y después añadiremos there → Is there...? Are there...?
Is there an apple on the table?
Yes, there is
No, there isn't / there is not
Speaking and pronunciation
 Get a card from your teacher.
A: When´s Independence Day in Peru?
B: It´s on july 28th. When ´s independence day in Brazil?
A: When´s Valentine´s Day?

 When are the festivals and celebrations in your country? Are they public holidays? Answer with the

CONCEPTUAL
Getting a jobs
Talking about abilities – can and can`t
Es uno de los verbos modales más conocidos.
Es importante saber que: El verbo modal “Can” corresponde al español a "Poder", este verbo es
ampliamente utilizado en inglés.
1.- Posibilidad de ciertos sucesos.
2.- La habilidad o capacidad de personas / cosas.
3.- Para pedir / dar permiso.
4.- Para pedir / ofrecer cosas.
En inglés podemos expresar habilidad de diferentes maneras. Debemos tener en cuenta que
normalmente utilizamos los modales, pero que también existen otras formas.
Nos referimos a las diferentes estructuras que se utilizan para hablar de habilidad, tanto en el presente,
como en el pasado.
Lo usamos:
 Present Ability: Para hablar de habilidad en presente podemos utilizar el modal 'can' (afirmativa
o negativa).
 Negativa: Por otro lado, para hablar de falta de habilidad utilizamos 'could not' (o su forma
contraída 'couldn't) tanto para habilidades generales como para situaciones particulares.

La estructura básica consiste es:

Pronoun / name + can + action verb + Complement
Oraciones Interrogativas con "Can"
Can + Pronoun / name + action verb + Complement?

Last week-end my sister had a birthday party. There was a snowstorm that day and the
traffic was horrible. I was so late I missed most of the party. By the time I arrived all the

opened too. Songs had been sung and wishes had been said. A good time was had by
everyone! I stayed long enough to finish the last of the wine and help my sister clean up
after the party. The drive home was much easier because the roads had been plowed by
