Grammar rule

There is, there are

We use there is and there are to say what is in a place

One thing	Two or more things
There is a garage.	There are three bedrooms.
There's a big kitchen.	There are two old trees.

There's = There is. We often say there's when we speak.

For two or more things, say there are (not there is three bedrooms). There are has no short form in writing.
