How do I say I'm currently doing something in German? For example: "I'm learning German" (as in, I've been learning it for a while, and I'm still doing it) or "I'm working on a huge project", or last example "I'm investing money on Twitter shares". Like I said, I want to make it sound like it's currently something that I do as a part of my daily life.

There's no continous form in German, so you either use an appropriate adverb (e.g. "gerade"), or you just use the normal non-continous form: Ich lerne Deutsch (implies that you've been learning it for a while, and still doing it) Ich arbeite gerade an einem großen Projekt (right now, I'm working ...) Ich investiere Geld in Twitter-Aktien. (of course you're doing it right now, otherwise you'd have used Perfekt or Imperfekt)
