Frage über Englisch (UK)
Dear sir or mam,
I am a student of 9th grade. I am not good at english. I am trying to learn this language. Yesterday in my English class, my teacher gave me 3 sentences those were
(1) Ladies and gentlemen presenting you......
(2) A busy and crowded station, full of people trying to go somewhere.
(3) Hogwart station is covered in thick white steam pouring from the Hogwarts express.
and asked a few questions..
Q. for no.1 sentence ---> " without having a subject and an auxiliary verb how can the main verb "present" become a progressive form "presenting" ? Is it a Gerund or Participle or anything else , prove with an example?
Q. for no. 2 & 3 sentence ---> " how can "try" & "pour" become "trying" and "pouring"?
I have studied a few English grammar books and found the answer for sentences 2/3 might be " participle" (not sure) , but i am still finding the answer for Question no. 1.
Please help me....

@shawonalam340 I’m not sure I fully understand but the word is presenting instead of present because there is no “I” to refer to yourself before the word. It can be said “ I present to you” or “presenting” because you are just about to show in that moment
