The present perfect continuous tense:

Present Perfect Continuous Tense:

The present perfect continuous tense (also known as the present perfect progressive tense) shows that something started in the past and is continuing at the present time. The present perfect continuous is formed using the construction has/have been + the present participle (root + -ing).

Example:

1- I have been reading War and Peace for a month now.

Recently and lately are words that we often find with verbs in the present perfect continuous tense.

2-Mia has been competing in flute competitions recently. (And she will continue to do so.)

3- haven’t been feeling well lately. (And I am still sick now.)

4-Recently, I’ve been misplacing my wallet and keys. (Because I sure don’t know where they are.)

Of course, not all verbs are compatible with continuous action. Some examples of such verbs are to be, to arrive, and to own.

1-I have been owning my Mazda since 2007.

I have owned my Mazda since 2007. (present perfect tense)
