How long....? Hi,
if I want to know how long your holiday will last and I want to use the present progressive form with future meaning and start the question with how long....what verb should I use?
1) How long are you going onholiday?
2) how long are you staying on holiday?
3) How long are you holidaying?
Thank
Rip
