[General] There is a gas

[suniljain]

There is a gas leakage in the kitchen, immediately open the windows.

Gas is leaking in the kitchen, immediately open the windows.

Are both sentences OK and do they convey the same meaning?

Yes, but you need a semicolon or a period in place of each comma.

There is a gas [STRIKE]leakage[/STRIKE] leak in the kitchen; [STRIKE]immediately[/STRIKE] open the windows immediately/straight away/now.

Gas is leaking in the kitchen, immediately open the windows.
I don't like "Gas is leaking ...". "There is a gas leak" is much more natural.

Are both sentences OK and do they convey the same meaning?

See above.

Given the urgency of the situation, I wouldn't waste as many words as any of our suggestions so far.

I can smell gas! Windows! Now!
