  • For a temporary action which may not be actually happening at the time of speaking:

 Present continuos means what is going on now. It will be ending with 'ING' form. Eg:- I am drawing a picture of a hen. Past continous means what was been happen.    It will also be ending with 'ING' form.    Eg:- I was drawing a picture of a hen. Future continous means what may be going to happen.  It too is ending with 'ING' form and there will be either 'Will' or 'Shall' in the sentence. Eg:- I will draw a picture of a hen.
