When should i use 在 to mean that the action is happening right now? I have seen that 在 can be used to indicate that an action is happening right now ( example: 他在看書.) but i have also seen sentences like this one-->"你看什麼?"(What are you looking at?) . This sentence is about an action that is going on right now , so why wasn`t 在 used in that situation?
