EASY EXPLANATION WITH EXAMPLES ABOUT "THERE IS - "THERE ARE"

Hi There!!!

Here below, you can learn an easy explanation about

"There is" and "There are"

only for countable nouns.

First of all, let´s begin with...

Positive Sentences

We use “there is” for singular and

“there are” for plural.

Examples:

There is one table in the classroom.

There are three chairs in the classroom.

There is a spider in the bath.

There are many people at the bus stop.

Negative Form

The negative is formed by putting “not” after "is" or "are":

Examples:

There is not a horse in the field.

There are not eight children in the school.

There is not a tree in the garden.

There are not two elephants in the zoo.

We almost always use contractions

when speaking.

The Negative contractions are:

There's not => There isn't

There are not => There aren't

There are with "SOME"

When we want to indicate that two or more quantities of something exists we use “there are some”.


Examples:

There are some apples in the basket.
There are some seagulls at the beach.

There aren't with "ANY"

When we want to indicate that a zero quantity of something exists we use “there aren't any”.

Examples:

There aren't any people at the party.

There aren't any trees in my street.

Questions

To form a question, we place "is" / "are" in front of "there".

Again, we use "any" with plural questions.

Examples:

Is there a dog in the garden?

Are there any dogs in the park?

Is there a shop assisstant in the shop?

Are there any polar bears in Antarctica?

Is there a car in the garage?

Short Answers

Yes, there is   ---   Yes, there are

No, there isn´t   ---   No, there aren´t
