Se usa el Present Perfect Continuous cuando se quiere destacar una acción, la cual comenzó en el pasado y todavía continúa: “She has been telling jokes all day.” (Ella está contando chistes todo el día.) “I've been waiting for the train for half an hour.” (Llevo esperando el tren desde hace media hora.)
