I am having trouble know when to use which.
For example:
Los papeles (hay/están) en la mesa.
I'm sure it is simple. Could someone give me some rules, tricks, tips anything to make it easier to determine which one to use.
Thank you,
S

Hay means "there are" and están means "are".
Hay papeles en la mesa.
Los papeles están en la mesa.
