意思
Used to state the non-existence or absence of something.
文化背景
In Spain, if a shop is out of something, they might say 'No nos queda' (We don't have any left) which is slightly more specific than 'No hay', but 'No hay' is still perfectly common. The phrase 'No hay tos' is a very informal slang way to say 'No problem' or 'No worries', similar to 'No hay bronca'. In many street markets, 'No hay' is often followed by 'pero le ofrezco...' (but I offer you...), showing the resourceful nature of local commerce.
The Plural Trap
Never add an 'n' to 'hay'. Even if you are talking about a million things, it's always 'No hay'.
Silent H
Remember the 'H' is 100% silent. If you pronounce it like 'high', you won't be understood.

Politeness
Adding 'Lo siento' (I'm sorry) before 'No hay' makes you sound much more like a native speaker in shops.

Historically, 'hay' comes from 'ha' (has) + 'y' (there). It's a special form used only for existence.
The most common past tense is 'No había' (There wasn't/weren't).
No, 'hay' is a verb form and does not have gender. The noun following it will have gender, but 'hay' stays the same.
