Answer 2

Complete question:

We _ (live) in this house for five years.​ ( Use correct tense for the given verb)

Answer:

We have been living in this house for five years.​

Explanation:

• A verb or the action word expresses an occurrence, action, or state and tells a lot about the sentence.

• The verb indicates the grammatical centre of the predicate in a sentence.

• "have been living" is the correct form of tense as the present perfect continuous/ present perfect progressive tense is used to indicate an action that started in the past but is continued in the present ("for five years").

• Here the given sentence is spoken by people who are still living at the place referenced in the sentence.

• “We have been living in this house for five years” means “I have been living here for five years now, and We are still living here.”
