Asking for some clarification in English Hello community! I have a question about the following quote. Here goes a description of a country... "When you're walking down the road and pass a stranger, the very first question he or she will ask you is [...], the second question is [...]. They're just trying to make you feel comfortable.'' The question is, why do we use present continuous here? Is there a special rule for it that I haven't seen? It looks like setting a scene for me, but I haven't found any data on Present Cont. usage for this purpose. I know that it can be expressed through other tenses like Present Simple (which I would do myself), but I really want to understand why we use PC here. Thank you very much in advance!
