When it comes to the word ‘there,’ it can be used in different contexts and take on different forms. In English grammar, there are three primary types of ‘there’s’ that you should be aware of:
  • There’s (contraction): “There’s” is a contraction of “there is.” It is commonly used to indicate the existence or presence of something. For example: “There’s a cat on the roof” or “There’s a party at John’s house tonight.”
  • There’s (contraction – plural form): Similarly, “there’s” can also be a contraction of “there are.” This form is used when referring to multiple entities or things. For instance: “There’s five students in the classroom” or “There’s several options to choose from.”
  • There’s (adverbial use): Though less common, ‘there’s’ can function as an adverb. In this case, it is used to introduce a sentence and add emphasis or highlight a particular point. Examples include: “There’s no denying the importance of education” or “There’s no need to worry, everything will be fine.”

Understanding the three types will enable you to use ‘there’ correctly and effectively in your writing. So, next time you encounter ‘there’s,’ make sure to consider its context to grasp its meaning effortlessly!
