There is

/ðɛr ɪz/verb phrase
ELI5 mode

There is serves as a common existential construction to assert the existence or presence of something in a given context, often introducing new information at the start of a sentence. In modern English, it's frequently used in both formal and informal settings to make statements more natural and less abrupt, though it's often criticized in writing for leading to passive or wordy constructions.
