@annikaj1201 do you native speakers use “there being”?
If so when?

@Shun1245 yes, “there being” is the passive form of “there is”
Examples
“‘There is’ too much salt in the food”
“I’m worried about ‘there being’ too much salt in the food”
“Since ‘there is’ no test, I don’t need to study”
“With ‘there being’ no test, I don’t need to study”
It is kind of hard for me to explain, and it is not used often in conversation, so it is not too important:)
