Hello 1karola, You use the Present Continuous with the verb to be when you talk about someone's behaviour at the moment. So in your example above, the sentence "He is difficult" would mean that he is always difficult generally speaking. But the answer: "Oh no! He is being difficult again today." means that he is difficult today , that's a temporary behavior. Maybe tomorrow he won't be that difficult (hopefully if he isn't a spoiled child ) I hope I've answered your question. The best
