comenzando = we are starting

Hello! A quiz question: We are starting the meeting now. The correct answer: nosotros comenzamos ... My answer: nosotros estamos comenzando ... Why aren't both answers correct?

This question relates to:Spanish lesson "Conjugate stem-changing -ar verbs in the present tense in Spanish (e > ie) (El Presente)"

Hola Shafagh

The reason why it was incorrect was because we are asking to conjugate in El Presente, not in El Presente Progresivo. You have a hint in that question saying:

Hint: Conjugate "comenzar" in El Presente

I hope this clarified it.

Saludos
