    Maybe, you'd like to say "Tôi đang đứng cạnh máy truyền hình" ?
    Tôi đang đứng cạnh máy truyền hình = I'm standing beside the TV
    "Tôi đang canh máy truyền hình" has some meanings:
    Canh chừng = watch out, watch for
    canh chỉnh = change, correct, adjust

    You are english native speaker, I think you'll understand yourself what is right.

    To watch: to look or observe attentively....===> xem in Vietnamse.

    I am watching TV: Tôi đang xem truyền hình.
    The correct Present Tense: I watch TV.

    Basic Vnese: I am watching TV-
    Toi dang coi TV (coi = watch)
    there are different words that can be used in different context.
    Coi - watch something that is happening or has happened.
    Nhin, dom, ngo, dia = would mean to look at.
