1. Saying something exists '~이 있다'를 말하는 표현
Use it to say something is in a place. For one thing or something uncountable, use There is (There's). For more than one thing, use There are.
어떤 장소에 무엇이 있다고 말할 때 씁니다. 하나이거나 셀 수 없는 명사이면 There is(줄여서 There's), 둘 이상이면 There are를 씁니다.
2. Negatives and questions 부정문과 의문문
There isn't / There aren't any ... / Is there ...? / Are there any ...? Any is common in negatives and questions.
부정문은 There isn't / There aren't any ..., 의문문은 Is there ...? / Are there any ...?로 만듭니다. 부정문과 의문문에서는 any를 자주 함께 써요.
3. There is vs. have have와 구분하기
A common mistake is "In my room have a desk." To say something is in a place: There's a desk in my room. To say you own it: I have a desk.
'우리 방에 책상이 있어요'를 In my room have a desk.라고 말하는 실수가 많아요. 어떤 장소에 있다는 뜻이면 There's a desk in my room.이라고 하고, 내가 가지고 있다는 뜻이면 I have a desk.라고 합니다.
| One / uncountable | More than one | |
|---|---|---|
| Positive | There's a park. | There are two parks. |
| Negative | There isn't a park. | There aren't any parks. |
| Question | Is there a park? | Are there any parks? |
