When to use present continuous

English Language Learners Asked on November 27, 2021

If something is planned you have been imposed, can that be considered as an arrangment to use present continuous?

For example, you received an email saying there will be some work in 3 weeks along your road, and your internet connection is not working during the work.

Can I use present continuous in that case?

To indicate that something is being done now or frequently.it is what you continue to do.

I am cooking. She is bathing.

You use the Present Continuous tense to indicate something that:

Is happening now, frequently, and may continue into the future Ref

The planning is being done in the present, but the internet will not stop working until the work starts in three weeks.

Because the internet is working now, and will continue to work up until the work starts, you would use the Future Tense to refer to its state of not working.
