THERE IS- THERE ARE

We use There is / There are to say that something exists (or does not exist). The real subject usually comesafter there is/ there are.

1) Use "There is" for singular nouns and things you cannot count.
 
      Examples:

There is a river in my town    
There is a ghost in this room
There is an apple on the desk              
There is ice on the lake
  There is oil on the pavement...
              
2) Use "There are" for plural nouns; that is to say, we use there are with a pluralsubject.
 Examples:

There are two parks in my neighbourh
There are 600 students in this school
There are four windows in my room

 3) To say the opposite, (the negative form of this structure), use isn't  (is + not)    or    aren't   (are + not)
 
       Examples:
There isn't a telephone in the kitchen                             
  There isn't  a balcony             
   Thereisn`t an orange on the table                 
  There isn't ice on the lake                                
  There aren`t chairs in my room               
There aren´t two pictures on the wall. Just one              

4) To make questions, (to ask whether something exists or it doesn`t)  just change the order of there is and there are......
      Examples: 
Is there a balcony in theflat?
Is there a Post Office near hear?                Yes, there is                                                                 No, there isn`t                                               

Are there two telephone lines?    Yes, there
No, there aren`t                                                                 

5) Toexpress the idea of quantity, we usually  have to use "some"  and   ''any"  with there is and there are. This happens when we have to mention an unspecified amount of something, for example, when we are using uncountable nouns.
 
We generally use some for positive statements, and any for negative and interrogative ones.
 .
      Examples: 

  (Positive statements)
There is some water in thebottle               
There is some milk in the jar               
There are some letters for you               
There are some cupboards under the sink               

(Negative statements)  
                  
There isn`t any bread in the bask
There isn't any wine in the fridge                          
There aren`t any apples
There aren`t any tomatoes
There aren`t anyoranges....Wow!!!The fridge is

(Interrogative statements)

Is there any sugar in the sugar pot?             
Is there any cool water in the fridge?             
Is there any quiet place around here?             
Are there any glasses in the cupboard?             
Are there any chairs in your room?             
Are there any bottles to throw away?
