Repeated progressive

The repeated progressive is the usage of the present progressive to talk about a progressive action that actually consists of several shorter actions, which occur around the present time, but may not be happening now.

For example: Let’s say I decide to read a book, Tolstoy’s War and Peace. Given the length of War and Peace, I would be hard-pressed to read it in one sitting. I’m busy in real life and can only read for an hour a day before bedtime. So I have to read it over a period of a few weeks. But after I’ve started, I can say:

• "I'm reading War and Peace"

CCQs
