Who might say, " I am seeing what you mean"? ?

Question

Trying to understand where, why and how people speak English in different parts of the world.

Answer 1

Non-native speakers who have only a partial grasp of English might formulate the question that way. This is probably due to how the English present progressive tense is formed ("to be"+ verb ending in -ing), which non-English speakers take to be the present tense as well. I don't think proper English is spoken this way anywhere around the world. Usually, it would be "I see what you mean."
