What is the rule between there is and no? example: - there is an apple - no money - no nation ?? i appreciate if some tells me how can i use them correctly

English students: Can you relate to this? You want to sound more clear and understandable to a native English speaker. Not just have people understand a few of your words then assume what you're actually saying. But to have your listeners completely understand you instantly without having to make any assumptions or use 'context' clues. Maybe you've never had someone from the United States judge your speaking before. Maybe you've only had friends and family judge your speaking and they haven't offered much in regards to what you should improve on. If you've never had someone from the US judge your speaking and you want to sound more American then let me know. I have pronunciation classes, conversation classes and more available! Book a lesson! I have a lot of availability this weekend!

A blister formed and before long, it burst, which led to what I thought was a typical infection. This morning, Dad saw her wound and urged her to go to the clinic. The doctor laughed and said we were overreacting again, the second time this month. He prescribed a bottle of sodium chloride physiological solution for Mom. I’m not sure what it means, but it sounds simple: rinse Mom’s wound with it regularly for the next few days, and everything should be just fine. I can take care of it.

Why is it not correct to use "more" alone in "The amount of information becomes more" but correct to use "more" alone in "He's tearing it up more" and to use "less" alone in "The amount of information becomes less"?
