If you watch the 3.5 lesson in Learn Spanish (above drop-down menu) it covers this really well. - katydew, Feb 15, 2012

Answer 1

This is how I learned it but you can get a fuller explanation by putting any of these in the dictionary search box at the top of the page.

esta, esto, este - this in touching reach (add an s and you get these)

esa, eso, ese - that, close but not within touching reach (add an s and you get those)

aquella, aquel, aquellos, aquellas - that or those, but quite far from you

Lesson 3.5 in Learn Spanish on this site covers this really well.
