This/These: este, esta, estos, estas.
That/those: ese, esa, esos, esas.
That/those (far away): aquel, aquella, aquellos, aquellas
They change depending on number and gender of the noun they are describing.
Here is how my teacher made us remember: "This and these have the T's, that and those don't."
That little rhyme has always stuck with me and I never forget it!
So for your sentence, you need to figure out a few things:
- Will you be using "this/these" or "that/those"? Hint: the presence of the word "aquí" will help you...
- Now, what noun are you referring to? What is the gender of that noun? Is it plural or singular?
- Pick the correct demonstrative adjective for the sentence! I know you can do it!
