leer leyendo creer creyendo traer trayendo construir construyendo There are some irregular forms that use “yendo” in forming their present participles.

Yo estoy practicando. Manuel está practicando. Only the form of estar changes with different subjects. The verbs venir (to come) and ir (to go) are not typically used in this tense.
