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





Look at the picture to have a better understanding of the explanation above.

COUNTABLE AND UNCOUNTABLE NOUNS IN ENGLISH

Hello Everyone!!!




Here below, there is a brief but clear explanation about...


COUNTABLE NOUNS

Explanation of Countable Nouns in English

(Using Some, Any, There is, and There are)

Countable nouns are words that refer to things we can count individually. They have both singular and plural forms

(ex., book/books, car/cars),

and they allow us to specify exact numbers

(ex., one chair, three apples).


Key Features of Countable Nouns

Singular and Plural Forms

Singular: a chair, one apple, an idea

Plural: chairs, apples, ideas


Use of Articles (a/an)

Singular countable nouns require an article or a determiner:

I see a dog.

She has got an idea.


Plural Forms Without Articles

Plural countable nouns do not require articles:

I see dogs.

She has got ideas.


Used with Numbers

Singular: one book, one flower

Plural: three books, five flowers


Using Some and Any with Countable Nouns

Use some in affirmative sentences to refer to an unspecified quantity of plural countable nouns.


Example: There are some apples on the table.


Use any in negative sentences and questions to refer to an unspecified quantity or absence.


Example (negative): There aren’t any apples left.


Example (question): Are there any apples in the kitchen?


Using There is and There are

There is is used with singular countable nouns.


Example: There is a book on the desk.


There are is used with plural countable nouns.


Example: There are some books on the desk.

Summary of Rules

Use some in affirmative sentences:

There are some books on the table.


Use any in negatives and questions:

Negative: There aren’t any chairs in the room.

Question: Are there any chairs in the hall?


Use there is for singular countable nouns:

UNCOUNTABLE NOUNS





Detailed Explanation of Uncountable Nouns

in English

(Using Some, Any, There is, and There are)

    Uncountable nouns refer to things that cannot be counted as individual items. These are typically:

substances (e.g., water, milk),

abstract ideas (e.x., knowledge, advice),

 or collective categories (e.x., furniture, luggage).


        Uncountable nouns are treated as singular, so they:

Do not have plural forms (e.x., milk, not milks).

Use singular verbs (e.x., The advice is helpful, not The advice are helpful).

Require quantifiers like some, any, or specific measures (a glass of water, a piece of advice) to indicate amounts.



Using Some and Any

    Use some in affirmative sentences to talk about an unspecified amount.

Example: There is some sugar on the table.

    Use any in negative sentences and questions to indicate the absence of something or to ask about its presence.

Example (negative): There isn’t any milk left.
Example (question): Is there any bread in the cupboard?


Using There is and There are

There is is used with singular and uncountable nouns.

Example: There is some water in the glass.

There are is used with plural countable nouns.
Example: There are some apples on the table.

Since uncountable nouns are singular, they always pair with there is, not there are.


Examples of Some, Any, There is, and There are

1. Water (uncountable)

Affirmative: There is some water in the bottle.

Negative: There isn’t any water left in the jug.

Question: Is there any water in the fridge?

2. Milk (uncountable)

Affirmative: There is some milk in my tea.

Negative: There isn’t any milk in the fridge.

Question: Is there any milk for breakfast?

3. Bread (uncountable)

Affirmative: There is some bread on the table.

Negative: There isn’t any bread in the cupboard.

Question: Is there any bread left?

4. Furniture (uncountable)

Affirmative: There is some furniture in the living room.

Negative: There isn’t any furniture in the new apartment.

Question: Is there any furniture in the house?

5. Sugar (uncountable)

Affirmative: There is some sugar in the jar.

Negative: There isn’t any sugar for the cake.

Question: Is there any sugar in the kitchen?

6. Advice (uncountable)

Affirmative: There is some good advice in that book.

Negative: There isn’t any advice that applies to my problem.

Question: Is there any advice on how to solve this issue?

7. Rice (uncountable)

Affirmative: There is some rice in the pot.

Negative: There isn’t any rice in the cupboard.

Question: Is there any rice for dinner?

8. Information (uncountable)

Affirmative: There is some information about the course online.

Negative: There isn’t any information on the topic.

Question: Is there any information available?

9. Tea (uncountable)

Affirmative: There is some tea in the cup.

Negative: There isn’t any tea in the teapot.

Question: Is there any tea for the guests?

10. Music (uncountable)

Affirmative: There is some music playing in the background.

Negative: There isn’t any music at the party.

Question: Is there any music on the radio?


Key Tips

Use some in positive sentences, and any in negatives and questions:

Positive: There is some juice in the fridge.

Negative: There isn’t any juice in the fridge.

Question: Is there any juice in the fridge?

Always use there is for uncountable nouns, as they are singular in English.

Correct: There is some milk.

Incorrect: There are some milk.

When asking about plural countable nouns, use there are with any:

Example: Are there any apples on the table?


By understanding these rules and practising with examples, you’ll become more confident using uncountable nouns in English!
