Demonstrative Adjectives Examples and Details
Hey, Hope you’re doing well! We’re trying to figure out demonstrative adjectives for a homework task. Could you provide some examples of how “these” and “that” are used in context?

Appreciate your help!

Hello! 

"These": Refers to items close to the speaker.  It’s the plural form of "this." 

Example: "These shoes are new."

"That": Refers to an item farther from the speaker.  "That" is used as a singular pronoun.  The plural form is "those." 

 Example: "That car over there is mine."
