There is / There are

Aquí os dejamos como usar There is / There are . Adjuntamos una imagen de un puzzle que podemos usar como juego para completarlo y aprender como se forma.

"There is" se usa para frases afirmativas plurales. Va seguido de "a" o "an" antes del sustantivo.
 * There is a paper on the table.                 * Hay un papel encima de la mesa.

"There are" se usa para frases afirmativas plurales. Va seguido del número de objetos del que hablamos o "some" antes del sustantivo.
* There are three papers on the table./ There are some papers on the table.

Para hacer las oraciones en forma negativa debemos añadir NOT, negando el verbo to be.

There are not = There aren't

Esta vez en las negativas "There aren't" va seguido de "any" antes del sustantivo.
* There aren't any papers on the table.           * No hay ningún papel encima de la mesa.
