1. Introduction

The simple present tense is the one which we use when an action is happening right now, or
when it happens regularly.
Present Continuous with normal verbs to express the idea that something is happening now, at
this very moment. It can also be used to show that something is not happening now.

Present Perfect Continuous shows that something started in the past and has continued up until
now. The present perfect is used to indicate a link between the present and the past. The time of
the action is before now but not specified and we are often more interested in the result than in
the action itself.

16. Conclusion

A possessive adjective modifies a noun to show ownership or something belongs to somebody.


We use genitive case when the noun that refers to the thing possessed is clearly understood, it is
generally omitted. Formally, every sentence above looks like the first conditional, with the
condition having future meaning, which was not our intention. Generally, context and auxiliary
words like "already", "at present", etc. sometimes are enough to inform us that the condition has
present meaning, but sometimes are not, which leads to ambiguity
