Tense

• Tense refers to the period during which an action is taking place. It can be divided into three periods- present, past, and future.

• The sentence is present in the present continuous tense.

• However, we have to use the present perfect continuous tense while talking of an action that began in the past and is continuing still now.

• The present perfect continuous tense of 'rain' is 'has been raining.'
