!Por Favor Ayuda!<br><br> Write 3 sentences using "There is" or "There are"
Paraphin [41]

"There is" utilized when we are referring to a single object and is used for "singular nouns." On the other hand, "there are" is utilized for plural nouns, or when there is more than one item being discussed.

<h3>How do you use there is and there are?</h3>

When referring to things that we can see or that exist, we use the words "there is" or "there are" in English grammar. For single, uncountable nouns, we say "there is," whereas, for plural, countable nouns, we use "there are."

The fundamental rule is that "There are" is followed by a plural noun, typically "noun+s," but there are additional obviously related irregular plural forms like "children and "people."

Because of this, "There are" is frequently followed by prepositional phrases like "many," "number," "a few," and "a few of" that appear before plural nouns.

Sentences using "there is" and "there are:"

1. "There is one table in the classroom."

2. "There is a spider in the bath."

3. "There is milk in the fridge."

(or)

1. "There are three chairs in the classroom."

2. "There are many people at the bus stop."

3. "There are two cats."
