Questions

To make present continuous questions we can use subject-auxiliary inversion. This means that we swap around the position of the auxiliary verb and the subject.

Am I typing on my computer? Are they laughing at the dog? Are you swimming in the pool?

Negative

I am not typing on my computer. They are not laughing at the dog. You are not swimming in the pool.

To make a negative present continuous sentence, we use an auxiliary verb (which we already have) and “not”.

Affirmative

I am typing on my computer. They are laughing at the dog. You are swimming in the pool.
