12. PAST TENSE OF ´THERE IS/THERE ARE
The past tense is a grammatical tense whose principal function is to place an
action or situation in past time. In languages which have a past tense, it thus
provides a grammatical means of indicating that the event being referred to took
place in the past. Examples of verbs in the past tense include the English verbs
sang, went and was.
In some languages, the grammatical expression of past tense is combined with the
expression of other categories such as mood and aspect (see tense–aspect–mood).
Thus a language may have several types of past tense form, their use depending on
what aspectual or other additional information is to be encoded. French, for
example, has a compound past (passé composé) for expressing completed events,
an imperfect for expressing events which were ongoing or repeated in the past, as
well as several other past forms.

13. EXAMPLE
•There is a store round the corner.
Hay una tienda a la vuelta de la esquina.
•There are two houses near the station.
Hay dos casas cerca de la estación.
•There are three schools in this town.
Hay tres escuelas en esta ciudad.
•There was a party last night.

19. PAST SIMPLE OF ´CAN´
El “Could”, es la forma pasada del verbo “Can”, y es utilizado como auxiliar para
expresar una habilidad que se poseía en un tiempo anterior al que está
transcurriendo, así como también para exponer una posibilidad pero de manera más
