In this lesson, we will revise how to use the constructions "There is" and "There are" in English.
1
We use there is and there are to say that something exists.
Positive sentence
Remember! We use there is for singular and there are for plural.
There is + singular noun | There is a bookcase in the room. |
There are + plural nouns | There are two flowers in the vase. |
There is + uncountable noun | There is milk in the glass. |
Contractions
The contraction of there is is there's.
There's only one chocolate left in the box.
Remember! You cannot contract there are.
There are nine cats on the roof.
2
Let's practise!
3
Negative Form
The negative is formed by putting not after is or are:
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 aren't with ANY
When we want to indicate that a zero quantity of something exists we use there aren't any.
There aren't any people at the party.
We also use this structure with uncountable nouns:
There isn't any water in the swimming pool.
There isn't + singular noun | There isn't a book on the table. |
There aren't +plural noun | There aren't any trees here. |
There isn't + uncountable noun | There isn't any juice in the fridge. |

Questions
To form a question we place is / are in front of there.
There is a cat on the chair. | There are cats on the sofa. |
Is there a cat on the chair? | Are there cats on the sofa? |
Remember! We use any with plural questions or those which use uncountable nouns.
We also use there is / are in short answers.
Is there a dog in the supermarket? - No, there isn't.
Are there any dogs in the park? - Yes, there are.
Is there a security guard in the shop? - Yes, there is.
Are there any polar bears in Antarctica? - No, there aren't.
Is there any ice cream in the freezer? - Yes, there is.
How Many with Are There
If we want to find out the number of objects that exist we use How many in the following form:
How many + plural noun + are there (+ complement) |
How many dogs are there in the park?
How many students are there in your class?
