Present perfect continuous: uses

Recent past activities

We use the present perfect continuous to talk about a finished activity in the recent past. Using the present perfect continuous focuses on the activity.

We don’t give a specific time. Even though the activity is finished, we can see the result in the present:

I’ve just been cleaning the car. (The car is wet and clean.)

It’s been snowing. (The ground is covered in snow.)

What have you been buying?

One continuing event

We use the present perfect continuous for a single activity that began at a point in the past and is still continuing:

I’ve been reading your book – it’s great. (I’m still reading it.)

He’s been living in the village since 1995. (He is still living in the village.)

She has been writing her autobiography since 1987.

Repeated continuing events

We use the present perfect continuous to talk about repeated activities which started at a particular time in the past and are still continuing up until now:

I’ve been going to Spain on holiday every year since 1987.

I haven’t been eating much lunch lately. I’ve been going to the gym at lunchtimes.

She’s been playing tennis on and off for three years.

How long …?

We often use the present perfect continuous to ask and answer questions about the duration of an activity. We use the question How long …+ present perfect continuous:

A:

How long have you been waiting for me?

B:

About ten minutes. Not too long. (I’ve been waiting for about ten minutes.)

Answer 2

At the moment, I am sitting in the airport waiting for my flight to Canada. I am staying at a hotel in Toronto for the first few days of my trip. The weather is quite chilly, with temperatures hovering around 10 degrees Celsius. This evening, I am planning to explore the city and try some local cuisine. Tomorrow, I am going to visit the famous CN Tower and take a boat tour of the Toronto Islands. Overall, I am really excited for this trip and can't wait to experience everything Canada has to offer.
