Introduction

I looked at some documents from news websites.

Main Body

The first document is from The Tribune. It shows a list of news sections for India. It has information about jobs and business. The second and fourth documents are from Süddeutsche Zeitung. They show a list of jobs. They also show coupons for shops. The third document is from an Australian company. It only has names of photos and company information. There are no news stories here.

Conclusion

These documents only show website menus and lists.

📌 The 'There is / There are' Secret

In the text, we see a very important way to describe what is inside a document or a room.

1. The Rule

  • Use 'There is' for one thing (singular).
  • Use 'There are' for two or more things (plural).

2. From the Text

  • "There are no news stories here." →\rightarrow (More than one story = plural).

3. Quick Switch

  • If the text said one story, it would be: →\rightarrow There is no news story here.

4. Useful Word Pairs

  • There is →\rightarrow a list
  • There are →\rightarrow coupons
