UNIT 6: Sixth clue my dear Watson!!

GRAMMAR

There is and There are are used in English to mean "hay"; the only thing to keep in mind is the following word. We must pay attention to countable nouns, if they are singular nouns we'd use there is, if they are plural nouns there are. For uncountable nouns we would use there is, you will frequently find some and any preceeding the noun. (There is y There are se utilizan en inglés para decir "hay"; lo único a tener en cuenta es la palabra siguiente. Debemos prestar atención a los nombres contables, si son nombres singulares utilizaríamos there is, si son nombres plurales there are. Para nombres incontables usaríamos there is, a menudo encontraréis some y any precediendo al nombre).

Practice: Read the rules again and do the exercises afterwards.

There was and There were are used for the past to mean "había" or "hubo". The grammatical rules are the same. Now let' practise there was and there were.

The Present Continuous Tense makes reference to an action taking place at the same time the speaker's voice is being heard or in a nearby moment. The action is seen as uncompleted and with a subtle nuance of duration. Sometimes it can be translated as estar + gerundio. (ando/endo). (El Presente continuo hace referencia a una acción que tiene lugar en el mismo momento que se oye la voz del hablante o en un momento cercano. La acción se ve como incompleta y con un matiz de duración. A veces se puede traducir como estar + gerundio(ando/endo). )
