There is / There are + a (an), some, any + Countable & Uncountable Nouns

En clase hemos aprendido que There is / There are sirven para decir lo que "hay" y There isn't / There aren't lo que "no hay".
Las cosas que "hay" o que "no hay" pueden ser Countable o Uncountable.
Y de todo ello depende que utilicemos bien a (an), some y any.
En la siguiente presentación podrás estudiar cómo se utilizan.



Aquí tienes un video gracioso(?) que también lo explica. Cuidado con el acento inglés!



Y finalmente unos ejercicios para que practiques lo aprendido:

Present Simple vs Present Continuous

Exceptions
Exceptions when adding 's' :

    Example: sit – sitting, put – putting
  • Final ie becomes y.
