GRAMMAR
Be particularly careful when using contractions for there is, it is
and the like, since contractions tend to obscure the verb. One often
sees faulty constructions such as What's the main issues at stake
here? or Where's my shoes? or There's still tons of debris to be
cleared. Such errors are common in speech, and indeed are sometimes
inevitable because speakers may start a sentence with a singular
subject in mind and then go on to form a plural. Also, using a
plural in this type of sentence would sometimes sound overly formal
in speech. Writers, however, must be held to a higher standard.
