00:00In today's lesson, I'm going to teach you about there is and there are in the future tense.
00:08We say there will be.
00:11So first, I'm going to show you the difference between there is, there are, and there will be.
00:20We use there is and there are to say that something exists or doesn't exist.
00:28In the present tense, we use there is or there's plus a singular noun.
00:37For example, there is one cake or there's one cake.
00:43And with plural nouns, we use there are, there are two cakes.
00:50Now, if we're talking about the future and we want to talk about how many cakes are at the party
00:59in the future, we say there will be, there will be two cakes.
01:05So in the future tense, we use there will be with singular nouns and plural nouns.
01:14For example, there will be a meeting tomorrow.
01:19And again, with plural nouns, it stays the same.
01:23There will be cupcakes at the party.
01:27Let's look at some more examples with there will be.
01:32Now, you can shorten there will to there'll.
01:37So, there will be or there'll be.
01:43There'll is a contraction for there will.
01:48So, for example, there will be an exam tomorrow or there'll be an exam tomorrow.
01:57There will be four students in the classroom.
02:00There will be four students in the classroom.
02:05There will be blue skies tomorrow.
02:09There'll be vegetarian food at the wedding.
02:14Now, let's look at the negative form of there will be.
02:20We say there won't be.
02:24We do not say there willn't be because willn't is not a word.
02:29You say there won't.
02:31That is the contraction for will not.
02:35So, in the future tense, we use there won't be plus a singular or plural noun.
02:44Or there will not be.
02:47For example, there won't be live music at the club tonight.
02:53There will not be towels at the hotel.
02:58So, we'll have to bring our own.
03:01Again, you can say there will not be or there won't be.
03:08Now, how do we ask questions?
03:11We don't say is there or are there if we're asking about the future.
03:17We say, will there be?
03:20Will there be plus a singular or plural noun.
03:25For example, will there be snacks at the party?
03:30Will there be panda bears at the zoo?
03:35Okay, so now let's practice there will be.
03:40Imagine there is a party tomorrow and these are the things that will be at the party.
03:48I want you to fill in the blanks for these six questions.
03:53Number one.
03:55Many people.
03:57Number two.
04:00Any children.
04:02Number three.
04:05Balloons and decorations.
04:08Number four.
04:09Music and dancing.
04:12Number five.
04:14Any food or snacks.
04:17Finally, number six.
04:19Any pets.
04:21So, let's answer these together.
04:24Number one.
04:26There will be or there'll be many people.
04:31Number two.
04:33There won't be any children.
04:36We don't have any children in that picture.
04:39Number three.
04:41There will be or there'll be balloons and decorations.
04:46And again, number four.
04:49There will be or there'll be music and dancing.
04:55Now, number five.
04:56We have to ask the question.
04:59Will there be?
05:01Will there be any food or snacks?
05:04And finally, number six is also negative.
05:08There won't be.
05:11There will not be.
05:12Any pets.
05:15Okay, so let me know in the comment section how many you got correct out of six.
