  常见错误

  • ❌ ~~Here has many people.~~ → ✓ There are many people here. — 中文"这里有很多人"的"有"表示存在,英语用 there is / there are,不能直译成 have。
  • ❌ ~~There have a book on the desk.~~ → ✓ There is a book on the desk. — there 后面用 is / are,没有 there have 这种说法。
  • ❌ ~~There is two cats.~~ → ✓ There are two cats. — 后面的名词是复数,就用 are。
  • ❌ ~~There are a milk.~~ → ✓ There is some milk. — milk 不可数:用 there is + some,不能用 a。
