  1. Hello guys, thank you very much for being here.
  2. Welcome again to the class.
  3. We have been talking a lot about our country.
  4. Costa rica.
  5. Costa rica has a lot of things to offer.
  6. We have a lot of nature and places to visit
  7. in, I mean all over the place and that is
  8. why I prepare this presentation because I think that if
  9. we talk more about our country and about our Maribel's,
  10. how to explain this in front of someone or if
  11. you're having a conversation, you need to, you know, like
  12. explain in detail what we have to maybe tourists or
  13. frame people or friends that are outside Costa rica for
  14. these reasons, this is grandma and the topic that I
  15. have for today is the use of there is and
  16. there are, first of all, we need to talk about
  17. the meaning.
  18. So the meaning of uh the reason there are is
  19. to say that something exists.
  20. So basically when you're talking in this case about costa
  21. rica, you're telling someone that something actually exists in Costa
  22. rica. That you can go and visit that you can
  23. travel there.
  24. So that is why this is a very nice use
  25. of the reason there are and you can use it
  26. for a lot of things.
  27. But in this particular topic is very important for you
  28. to know how to use it.
  29. First of all, there are different ways, different ways for
  30. you to use their ease.
  31. And there are the first way is in the affirmative
  32. ways and we have either the singular way or the
  33. poor away.
  34. So for singular we have to use.
  35. There is plus a singular.
  36. Now an example of this will be, there is a
  37. book on the desk.
  38. Then the pleura way we have seen this before.
  39. We use are so we'll be there are.
  40. And then the plural.
  41. Now in this case will be there are books on
  42. the desk.
  43. The third option is for Uncountable Knowns.
  44. So we have to use.
  45. There is and then the uncountable.
  46. Now an example of it, this will be there is
  47. some milk in the fridge.
  48. This is for the affirmative way.
  49. What about the negative way?
  50. So we have the same format.
  51. It's just that we need to change.
  52. Isn't is for isn't or are for aren't or are
  53. not. And the first example will be there isn't cause
  54. a single unknown will be there isn't a pen on
  55. the table.
  56. You're away.
  57. There aren't plaza plural.
  58. Now there aren't any pens here and Uncountable Knowns.
  59. There isn't uncountable noun.
  60. And the example will be there isn't any juice in
  61. the fridge.
  62. We're using here contractions that we will see later on.
  63. But other way for you to say it will be
  64. there is not there are not, there is not questions.
  65. Questions are very important.
  66. How can we change the sentence into a question?
  67. With the reason there are is very simple.
  68. The sentence will be very sick cat on the chair.
  69. In order for you to change it into a question,
  70. you just have to switch and instead of there is
  71. you just move and you say is and then you
  72. move that there and then they continue with the rest
  73. of the sentence.
  74. So it will be is there a cat on the
  75. chair? Then there are cats on the sofa.
  76. So we just change switch places and we say are
  77. their cats on the sofa.
  78. So this is a very easy way for you to
  79. use questions.
  80. You can also add for example, if you want like
  81. more detail about something or about a place in Costa
  82. rica, for example, how many plus the poor are known
  83. are there?
  84. So how many beaches are there in Costa rica?
  85. So this is a way for you to use it,
  86. then how many then students are there in your class?
  87. How many days are there in february?
  88. So this is our life.
  89. So you do use um how many with questions this
  90. is like for more specific questions in quantities as well,
  91. contractions as I gave you the example before constructions are
  92. very easy.
  93. So you just have to use in their apostrophe S
  94. to say there is and the pronunciation will be theirs.
  95. Then there is not.
  96. So you use there's there's with apostrophe as and not,
  97. then there isn't, there is not and then there aren't
  98. there are not.
  99. So this is a very good way for you to
  100. use contractions.
  101. So what about some examples for this particular topic?
  102. That is very important.
  103. So one of them will be.
  104. There are five volcanoes in Costa rica.
  105. So you're explaining there are five volcanoes in Costa rica.
  106. There are active.
  107. So you just say there are because it's more than
  108. one volcano.
  109. So what about there is a beach called tamarindo in
  110. wana custody.
  111. So it's just one bitch.
  112. And you say there is a bitch called tamarindo in
  113. one a customer.
  114. What about question is there any important belly in Cartago?
  115. The answer will be yes.
  116. There is an important valley in Cartago.
  117. Do you know what is the name of this valley?
  118. Yeah, it's called a Rosy and it's in Cartago where
  119. I live.
