III. THE PERFECT CONTINUOUS TENSE

1.0 How to Write the Perfect Continuous Verb Tenses

The Perfect Continuous Tense is formed by:

  1. Start with the past, present or future form of the helping or auxiliary verb 'Have/Has'.
  2. Add 'been'.
  3. End with the '-ing' form of the verb (the participle form of the verb is not used to write the Perfect Continuous Tense. Instead, use the '-ing' form of the verb).

You have been working

He, she, it has been working

We have been working

You have been working
