Jawaban:

1. Which sentence is grammatical correct?

a. Noona and Rafi is not traveling to Bangka-Belitung

b. They is usually having dinner in this restaurant  

c. Elsa and Ana are not playing football right now

d. Olaf is watching a horror movie now

Answer: Kalimat c dan d merupakan kalimat yang benar secara grammatical.

Untuk membuat kalimat lainnya benar secara grammatical, kalimat a dan b seharusnya menjadi:

a. Noona and Rafi are not traveling to Bangka- Belitung.

b. They are usually having dinner in this restaurant.

Kalimat-kalimat diatas menggunakan tenses Present Continuous Tense atau Present Progressive Tense yaitu tenses yang digunakan untuk menyatakan aktivitas yang sedang dilakukan saat ini.

Verb yang digunakan adalah verb 1+ing dan auxiliary verb yang digunakan adalah is/am/are. Bentuk umum dari present continuous tense adalah:

(+) Subject + is/am/are + Verb1+ing

(-) Subject + is/am/are + not + verb1 + ing

(?) Is/am/Are + Subject  + verb 1+ ing

Contoh kalimat present continuous tense:

He is writing a letter.

I am washing the dishes in the kitchen.

The students are studying in the classroom.

People are walking in the street during the parade.

Wendy is cleaning her bedroom.

Keterangan waktu yang biasa mengikuti present continuous tense misalnya now, at the moment, right now.

Ada beberapa verb yang yang bentuknya tidak bisa diubah menjadi verb1+ing yaitu stative verb, diantaranya:

verb yang merupakan pemikiran/perasaan seperti : believe, know, like, understand, love, want dan lain-lain

verb yang menggunakan panca indera/sense seperti : smell, seem, look, feel, taste

contoh dalam kalimat:

I understand the situation not I am understanding the situation.

This cake tastes great not This cake is tasting great.
