What is a synonym for the word ''present''?

Question

I'm refering to past, present and future. I'm really stumped on this question.

Answer 1

Current and Now are ones that I came up with on my own.

Here is the listing I found at www.dictionary.com:
ad hoc, already, begun, being, coeval, commenced, contemporaneous, contemporary, current, even now, existent, extant, going on, immediate, in duration, in process, instant, just now, modern, nowadays, present-day, prompt, started, today, topical, under consideration, up-to-date
