Typische Falle
Falsch I am not understanding this sentence.
Richtig I do not understand this sentence.
Weil Deutschsprachige die Verlaufsform lange zu selten benutzen, übertreiben sie oft, sobald sie sie verstanden haben — und setzen sie dann auch dort ein, wo sie nicht hingehört. I am knowing und I am wanting sind für englische Ohren deutlicher falsch als ein vergessenes -ing.
