DEMOSTRATIVOS
What is the purpose of Demonstrative
adjectives?
- Demonstrative adjectives describes the location of a
NOUN in relation to a person.
- Demonstrative adjectives in English are “This” “That” and
“That over there”
- For example:
This book, that chair, that table over there
- When we say “This,” we are implying that the object is
relatively close to the person speaking.
- When we say “that,” we are implying that the object is a
bit further away from the person speaking.
- When we say “that over there” we are implying that the
object may be some distance, across the room, perhaps
from the person speaking.

What is a demonstrative adjective in English?
Demonstrative adjectives in English are simply the words:
THIS THESE
THAT THOSE
THAT OVER THERE THOSE OVER THERE
In English, we use one of the demonstrative adjectives based on:
1. How close or far the item is from us
2. How many items we are talking about
This sweater
is on sale.
Look at those boots.
The sweater
(singular) is close
to the speaker.
The boots (plural) are
farther away from the
speaker.
In Spanish, demonstrative adjectives have 3 basic forms:
THIS / THESE
(close to speaker)
THAT / THOSE
(not near speaker, but
possibly near listener)
THAT / THOSE
(farther from both
listener and speaker)
este ese aquel
Los adjetivos demostrativos
This and These have got T’s
That and Those no T goes
And an A for far away
OJO: Note that there are TWO ways to say THAT/THOSE depending on
the distance of the object from the speaker.
Los adjetivos demostrativos
¡__________ sombrero es perfecto!
_______________ traje me queda muy bien.
Perdone, quisiera ver
___________ abrigo rojo.
Este
Ese
Aquel
Los adjetivos demostrativos
Like all adjectives, demonstrative adjectives must match the noun they
accompany in two ways:
1. Masculine / Feminine
2. Singular / Plural
Which means that each of our 3 basic demonstratives have four variations!
THIS / THESE THAT / THOSE THAT / THOSE
(farther away)
