Keywords
Indefinite article - the words 'a', 'an' and 'some'
Unos - the word for 'some' before masculine plural nouns
Unas - the word for 'some' before feminine plural nouns
Hay - verb meaning 'there is' or 'there are' depending whether it comes before singular or plural nouns
Common misconception
'Hay' changes when followed by a plural, as 'there is' does in English, changing to 'there are'.
'Hay' means 'there is' and 'there are'. The word stays the same but the meaning changes when followed by a plural noun.
