دردش مع مستشار على واتسابالأخطاء الشائعة لدى المتحدثين باللغة الإسبانية
Spanish speakers sometimes confuse there is / there are with the verb to have because 'hay' can mean both 'there is/are' and 'has/have' in some contexts.
- Mistake 1: Using It is أو They are to introduce existence.
- خطأ: It is a book on the table. (This means the book هو the table, or identifies it, not that it exists there.)
- الصحيح: There is a book on the table.
- خطأ: They are three chairs in the room.
- الصحيح: There are three chairs in the room.
- Mistake 2: Using have for existence.
- خطأ: The city has many parks. (This is grammatically correct but means the city possesses parks. If you want to say parks exist in the city, use there are.)
- الصحيح: There are many parks in the city. (This emphasizes the existence of parks in the city.)
Remember: There is / There are is for existence. To have is for possession.
