EVALATION USE : THERE IS -THERE ARE

EVALUATION

USE OF : THERE IS -THERE ARE.

This is a painting by Vincent Van Gogh. You can discuss the painting or ask questions about this class on this message board thread. Here I'm just going to try to show you a little grammar by using "there is" and "there are" to describe the painting.

Use "there is" to talk about one thing and "there are" to talk about two or more things:There is one picture on this webpage but there are many words.

To ask a question, put the verb first: Is there a desk? Are there any people?

"Wh" questions follow the normal question word order: How many pictures are there? Whyare there two chairs?

Now you can try it. Remember that computers are not as smart as you are. You must NOT use contractions (use "there is", not "there's") or the computer will tell you you're wrong!
