🧠 Grammar Focus
Enfoque gramatical

We use ‘is’ for one place. We use ‘are’ for more than one place. The sentence structure is: Place + is / are + description. Use ‘is’ with one thing or one place. Use ‘are’ with more things or places. Remember, do not use ‘is’ with plural words. For example, ‘The park is big.’ ‘The shops are small.’ ‘My house is near the school.’ ‘The cities are far.’

Usamos ‘is’ para un lugar. Usamos ‘are’ para más de un lugar. La estructura de la oración es: Lugar + is / are + descripción. Usa ‘is’ con una cosa o un lugar. Usa ‘are’ con más cosas o lugares. Recuerda, no uses ‘is’ con palabras en plural. Por ejemplo, ‘The park is big.’ ‘The shops are small.’
