Definition: In linguistics, one of three verbal inflections that functions as a time reference, and often time works in conjunction with the verb tense. The most common verbal aspects are perfective and imperfective.
I.e.–Jack is walking continuous - aspect, present - tense.
Therefore, when one says the present continuous tense, it is actually the continuous aspect and the present tense.
