Note that the number 21 (vingt et un) follows a different pattern than the numbers 22–30. When vingt et un precedes a feminine noun, add -e to the end of it: vingt et une.

Use il y a to say there is or there are in French. This expression doesn’t change, even if the noun that follows it is plural.

In most cases, the indefinite article (un, une, or des) is used with il y a, rather than the definite article (le, la, l’, or les).

Use the expression il n’y a pas de/d’ followed by a noun to express there isn’t a… or there aren’t any.... Note that no article (definite or indefinite) is used in this case. Use de before a consonant sound and d’ before a vowel sound.
