not "there's been". ugh.
I'm 18:04; we you correcting me? I said 'there's been a ton of threads,' and I think that's grammatically correct.
'There has been tons' is incorrect. 'There have been tons' is correct.
But i said, "there's been a ton" -- isn't that correct?
NO, it's not, because if you "uncontract" the contraction "there's" it is "there is." And "there is been a ton" is not correct, as you, me, and everyone else can recognize.
Isn't the contraction "there has," not "there is?" Now I am really starting to second-guess my grammatical smarts!
