10. Demonstrativos

11. Demonstrativos
DEMONSTRATIVES
Pattern: Demonstratives are adjectives and pronouns that clarify which object the speaker is referring to. They must agree in
gender and number with the noun they replace or modify.
In English, the demonstrative adjectives and pronouns are the same (this, that, these, those). English only has 2 options, nearest the
speaker (this/these) or close to the speaker (that/those).
In Spanish, there are 3 options: nearest the speaker (este), close to the speaker (ese), and farthest from the speaker (aquel). Spanish
demonstrative adjectives and pronouns are almost identical; the only difference is that the pronouns have a written accent. Don't forget
to choose the form of each that matches the noun!
Spanish demonstrative adjectives:
este [esta, estos, estas], ese [esa, esos, esas], aquel [aquella, aquellos, aquellas]
Spanish demonstrative pronouns:
éste [ésta, éstos, éstas], ése [ésa, ésos, ésas], aquél [aquélla, aquéllos, aquéllas]

12. Demonstrative Adjectives
Adjectives are words that add information about nouns. In the case of demonstrative adjectives, the information added is regarding
spacial relationship. Here is an example in English:
This apple is sweet. That apple is sweeter.
In Spanish, there is an additional option: a far away object. Here is an example:
Esta manzana es dulce. Esa manzana es más dulce. Aquella manzana es la más dulce de todas.
(This apple is sweet. That apple is sweeter. That far away apple is the sweetest of all.)

13. Demonstrative Pronouns
Demonstrative pronouns not only show which object in space a speaker is referring to, but it replaces that object as well. Remember
that demonstrative pronouns carry a written accent.
English: My shirt is blue. That one is green.
Spanish: Mi camisa es azul. Ésa es verde.
More examples:
Estas camisas son tuyas, pero ésas son mías. -- These shirts are yours, but those ones are mine.
Me gusta este carro, pero aquél es aún mejor. -- I like this car, but that one over there is even better.
Trick: This and these have the “t”s, that and those don’t.
