Now, this, I have no idea.. I don't want an answer, though.. just an explanation.

anonymous · Answer

okay so we are talking about verb tenses here so present is like I RUN a mile everyday

tinylittlehelper · Answer

So, with these, "has been making" means that the company has already been making. This means they are still making as of today.

anonymous · Answer

that's confusing..

tinylittlehelper · Answer

It means present perfect progressive.

tinylittlehelper · Answer

Well, according to these examples, "has been living" and "has been making" sound similar, right? So, what do you think the answer is?

anonymous · Answer

each of the six verb tenses has a progressive form. the progressive form is used to express continuing or on going action. to form progressive, add a form of the BE verb to the present participle. notice some of the forms may end in -ing

bloomlocke367 · Answer

so it's present perfect progressive?

bloomlocke367 · Answer

but what's the difference between "present perfect progressive" and "present progressive"?

anonymous · Answer

present perfect progressive is sort of the same thing

tinylittlehelper · Answer

Present perfect progressive: HAS BEEN DELIVERING
Present progressive: IS DELIVERING
Past perfect progressive: HAD BEEN DELIVERING
Past progressive: WAS DELIVERING

Hope this helps!

bloomlocke367 · Answer

yes, that does help @TinyLittleHelper thank you! but what makes it progressive?

anonymous · Answer

here is a website i found to help you http://grammar.ccc.commnet.edu/grammar/tenses/present_perfect_progressive.htm

tinylittlehelper · Answer

LOL I was there getting that info.

anonymous · Answer

haha funny

anonymous · Answer

Singular	Plural
There is no present perfect progressive for the "to be" verb. "Have been being" is expressed simply as "have been": "We have been being successful in the past."

anonymous · Answer

being is crossed out btw
