"běží" means "is running" just now, so the continuous form in English. "does not run" would be "neběhá".
Also "very" would translated as "velmi" or "hodně". "Přiliš" has to be "too".
What's the difference between "běžet" and "běhat"? I think they are for imperfective, so I don't see their difference, despite the comment below. When do we use which?
You will have to check the Tips and notes then. One is for currently running somewhere, the other for regularly running (even if not running at the exact moment).
! Is there still a tips and notes section? I don't see it for this lesson series.
We can see tips and notes only on the web version. And it's very complete and interesting
But it’s not there now (for the skill currently called “Present 2”).
The tips for Present 2, if they ever existed, aren’t there either. There might be something about běhat/běžit in there somewhere, but I couldn’t find it. In any case, Czech verbs of motion are covered elsewhere, for example http://cokdybysme.net/pdfs/verbsofmotion.pdf
This particular difference determinate vs. indeterminate or in other words concrete vs. abstract verbs, is treated at https://duolingo.fandom.com/wiki/Czech_Skill:Movement
