genyen (gen) as THERE IS/THERE ARE SOME

Genyen moun ki kontan, genyen ki tris.
There are people that are happy, there are some that are sad.

it is not necessary to repeat MOUN with the second GENYEN

Genyen timoun ki wo, genyen ki kout, e genyen ki mèg.
There are some kids that are tall, there are some that are short and some are skinny.

Genyen moun ki t'a kouri, genyen ki t'ap mache, enpi rès you te chita atè a.
There were some people who were running, some were walking, and the rest were sitting on the ground.


And regarding your other question:)

You probably heard:
Pa gen anyen k' rete (contracted)
Pa gen anyen ki rete (non-contracted)
There's nothing left.
