Underwater Caves in Mexico: What are Cenotes?
By Shelley
Updated June 11, 2022
(FRAGMENT) Mexico Culture Blogs, Yucatan Peninsula
https://travelmexicosolo.com/best-underwater-caves-in-mexico/
The word cenote means “sinkhole,” or limestone sinkhole, but they are
essentially natural fresh water pools. Most of them were connected by
underground rivers, and located in the Riviera Maya. Some are above
ground, and some are underwater caves with unique geological
formations.
The Yucatan Peninsula was home of the ancient Mayans and yet for the
Mayan people in Mexico. Due to Cenotes were their largest source of
water to drink, they were considered sacred places of great reverence
and still now.
There are several cenotes you can explore including Cenote El Pit and
Cenote Pet Cemetery. The Pet Cemetery Cenote earned its nickname
because there have been human remains, animal remains and extinct
fauna discovered throughout the years. In fact, the oldest human skeleton
and skeletal remains on the Americas, known as Naia, were found here.

THERE WAS & THERE WERE GRAMMAR
La estructura en inglés 'there was' y 'there were' se utiliza para expresar cantidad en pasado. Vamos a ver un
ejemplo para comprender a qué hacemos referencia.
Había una mujer en el parque.
Había dos mujeres en una cafetería.
Lo único que debemos tener en cuenta para usar esta estructura es si estamos hablando de singular o plural,
así como la forma correcta del verbo 'to be.'
► AFIRMATIVA: Utilizamos ‘there was’ con cuando hablamos en singular. Sin embargo, si hablamos en plural
utilizamos ‘there were’.
there + was/were + resto de frase
Había una mujer en el parque.
There was a woman in the park.
Había dos mujeres en una cafetería.
There were two women in a café.
* Recuerda que este verbo es impersonal y en español no existe diferencia para singular y plural. En inglés sí
hacemos distinción.
► NEGATIVA: Para hacer las negaciones negamos el verbo ‘to be’ añadiendo la partícula ‘not’ detrás del
verbo o con la forma contraída.
there + wasn't/weren't + resto de frase
No había una mujer en el parque.
There wasn't a woman in the park.
No había dos mujeres en una cafetería.
There weren't two women in a café.
Subsecretaría de Educación Media Superior
Dirección General de Educación Tecnológica Industrial y de Servicios
Dirección Académica e Innovación Educativa
Subdirección de Innovación Académica
* Podemos encontrar la forma completa 'there was not' o 'there were not', pero es mucho más común la
forma contraída.
► INTERROGATIVA: Para la formación de preguntas necesitamos invertir el verbo ‘to be’ y la partícula
'there', tal y como vemos en el ejemplo.
was/were + there + resto de frase?
¿Había una mujer en el parque?
Was there a woman in the park?
¿Había dos mujeres en una cafetería?
Were there two women in a café?
► RESPUESTAS CORTAS: Para dar respuestas cortas debemos utilizar la forma correspondiente del verbo 'to
be' en pasado, respetando si es singular o plural.
Is there a woman in the park?
Yes, there was. / No, there wasn’t.
Are there two women in a café?
Yes, there were. / No, there weren’t.
* Utilizamos la forma completa en las respuestas afirmativas, mientras que utilizamos la forma contraída en
las respuestas negativas.
Los aspectos importantes que debemos tener en cuenta son los siguientes:
▪ Es importante que conozcas el verbo To Be (forma en pasado) ya que te ayudará a
comprender mejor las formas usadas en este tiempo.
▪ Recuerda que el verbo 'haber' en español es impersonal y por lo tanto no hay diferencia
entre singular y plural. Sin embargo, en inglés sí distinguimos entre singular y plural.
▪ Este verbo suele combinarse con las partículas some y Any para indicar cantidad.

Activity 21. Underground Cities. Identify the forms There was y There were. Read the passage and
write T if the statements are true or F if the statements are false according to the passage.
UNDERGROUND CITIES
In Cappadocia, Turkey there are over 200 ancient cities under the ground. Some of these cities are about
three thousand years old. There are secret passages between the cities. The passages are sometimes
many kilometers long. Nobody lives there anymore but a lot of people visit them and they are very
famous., They are a tourist attraction.
In the past, however, there were thousands of people living in the underground cities, there were houses,
kitchens, shops, churches, schools and places to keep the animals and food. What was the reason for
these mysterious places? Three thousand years ago, people were frightened of the cold winters and of
the wild animal above the ground. Years later, people were frightened of the Romans, and the cities were
good places to hide.
It probably wasn´t fun living for months, or even years, in these dark places. There wasn´t any electricity
and there weren´t any sports centers, cinemas, parks, stadiums or other exciting places to go. But today
Cappadocia is an amazing place to visit.
