There is/ There are 有…在….

There is/ There are文法某處有…

(1)There is / are為「有…」之意，用於說明「在某處」存在「某人事物」。

(2)be動詞之後的「名詞」才是「真正的主詞」，故 be 動詞會依據其後的名詞做變化。因此，「單數名詞」，則與“there is”連用；「複數名詞」，則與“there are”連用。

(3)there is / are之後的「名詞」，不與the連用。若要說明「某物」的「數量」，「單數名詞」與不定冠詞“a”或“an”連用;「複數名詞」則可與「數字」、many（許多）或some（一些）連用。

some只能用於肯定句，many 能用於肯定句、否定句及疑問句。

(4)There is可縮寫為There’s；但是there are不可縮寫。

例：There aren’t any birds in the tree. （樹上沒有鳥兒。）

(3)在「否定句」中，「單數名詞」常與不定冠詞“a”或“an”連用，而「複數名詞」則常與“any”、“many”或「數字」連用。

(4)“not＋a / an＋單數名詞”或“not any＋複數名詞”可以“no＋名詞”改寫。

Are there/ Is there 疑問句某處有…嗎？

(1)直述句改疑問句: 把肯定句中的be動詞，移到there的前面，be動詞的句首要為大寫且句尾要改成問號，就可形成疑問句。但肯定句中，若出現some，想形成疑問句則要把some改成any。

在肯定句中，有使用some時，要形成疑問句時，要把some換成any。
