Adjective is a word that, when analyzing its etymological origin, we discover that it comes from the Latin term \u201cadiectivus\u201d. This can also determine that it is made up of three components: the prefix \"ad-\", which indicates an approximation; the verb \"iacere\", which can be translated as \"launch\", and finally the suffix \"-tive\", which is synonymous with \"relationship\".<\/p>\n

The adjectives<\/strong> are the words that determine or qualify a noun<\/strong>. It is a kind of word that expresses the properties attributed to the noun, highlighting or specifying them.<\/p>\n

\"DemonstrativeA demonstrative adjective<\/strong> is the one who indicates a relationship of place<\/strong>, expressing the proximity<\/strong> of the person<\/strong> with whom or of whom it is spoken. These adjectives always precede a noun; otherwise, we are facing another type of word (the pronouns<\/strong>).<\/p>\n

Likewise, we cannot ignore the knowledge that demonstrative adjectives always have the same gender and number as those of the nouns they accompany. <\/p>\n

\"That\"<\/em>, \"this\"<\/em>, \"that\"<\/em>, \"that\"<\/em> Y \"those\"<\/em> are examples of demonstrative adjectives. There are certain adjectives that are grammatically appropriate but are very archaic in everyday speech, such as \"is another one\"<\/em>, \"Aqueste\"<\/em> or \"Aquesa\"<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Specifically, we would have to establish that this is the complete list of demonstrative adjectives:
\u2022 Regarding the adverb category, there are the following: \u201chere\u201d, \u201chere\u201d, \u201cthere\u201d, \u201cthere\u201d and \u201cthere\u201d.
\u2022 Those framed within the \u201cmasculine singular\u201d section are these: \u201cthis\u201d, \u201cthat\u201d and \u201cthat\u201d.
\u2022 On the other hand, typified as \u201csingular feminine\u201d we find \u201cthis\u201d, \u201cthat\u201d and \u201cthat\u201d.
\u2022 \"These\", \"those\" and \"those\" are the plural masculine demonstrative adjectives.
\u2022 \"These\", \"those\" and \"those\" are, for their part, the feminine and plural type.<\/p>\n

\"That dog is a doberman\"<\/em> is an expression that includes the demonstrative adjective \"that\"<\/em>. This adjective is determining the noun \"dog\"<\/em> and assumes that the speaker is observing the \"dog\"<\/em> in question so that the adjective \"that\"<\/em> make sense.<\/p>\n

\"Those girls are making a lot of noise and they won't let me rest\"<\/em> is another phrase where a demonstrative adjective is used (\"those\"<\/em>). The expression refers to a group of noisy girls from the perspective of the speaker.<\/p>\n

Sometimes the demonstrative adjective can indicate a proximity both space<\/strong> What temporary<\/strong>: \"Yesterday I bought this album\"<\/em> use the adjective \"this\"<\/em> to mention spatial proximity (it is easy to imagine the speaker pointing to the disk in question or holding it in hand), while \"This winter we will go skiing\"<\/em> includes the same adjective in a temporal reference (the winter that is lived at the moment or that is to come).<\/p>\n

That is to say, we could use the demonstrative adjectives already exposed to establish the type of proximity and closeness that they establish in terms of a subject or a specific object. In this sense, the following characteristics have been specified in this regard:
\u2022 Those that indicate greater proximity are \u201cthis\u201d, \u201cthis\u201d, \u201cthese\u201d and \u201cthese\u201d.
\u2022 On the other hand, those who come to show an average distance are \u201cthat\u201d, \u201cthat\u201d, \u201cthose\u201d and \u201cthose\u201d.
\u2022 Finally, those used to indicate a greater distance are \u201cthat\u201d, \u201cthat\u201d, \u201cthose\u201d and \u201cthose\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
