> There are some dogs in the kitchen.

 su'o/so'o da gerku ne'i lo jupku'a
 (or: su'o/so'o mei gerku ne'i lo jupku'a)

"su'o da" is a sumti unit, being the terbri of "gerku". "su'o mei" is
a selbri unit, forming a tanru with "gerku".


> The dogs are in the kitchen.

 lo/loi gerku cu nenri lo jupku'a


> Three dogs are in the kitchen.

 ci (lo) gerku cu nenri lo jupku'a

Some people use also "X zvati lo nenri be Y" for "X are in Y".
