Tip
The gerund in Spanish is formed like this:
estar + verb-ando (for -ar verbs)
estar + verb-iendo (for -er and -ir verbs)
It expresses the idea of continuous action and is translated in English with the -ing form of the verb. Remember that the verb estar needs to agree with the subject of the sentence. Therefore:
Estamos caminando > We are walking
Estoy comiendo > I am eating
Ok, Got It!
