 THERE IS / THERE ARE

            In English we can´t use the verb HAVE to talk about existence.
*HAVE A MAN HERE --> This sentence is extremely incorrect. Because the HAVE expresses possession. For example *I HAVE A DOLL.
          When we want to say that something "exist", somewhere or somebody, we must use THERE IS in the singular and THERE ARE in the plural forms.

THERE + BE = HAVER / EXISTIR

Carpe Diem

O mistress mine, where are you roaming?
O stay and hear! your true-love's coming
That can sing both high and low;
Trip no further, pretty sweeting,
Journey's end in lovers' meeting--
Every wise man's son doth know.

What is love? 'tis not hereafter;
Present mirth hath present laughter;
What's to come is still unsure:
In delay there lies no plenty,--
Then come kiss me, Sweet and twenty,
Youth's a stuff will not endure
William Shakespeare
