Este,Estos/Esta,Estas

"Este pájaro" - This bird (right next to me?)

"Estos pájaros" - These birds (right next to me?)

"Esta gata" - This cat (right next to me?)

"Estas gatas" - These cats (right next to me?)


Ese,Esos/Esa,Esas

"Ese cerdo" - That pig (right there?)

"Esos cerdos" - Those pigs (right there?)

"Esa cerda" - That pig (right there?)

"Esas cerdas" - Those pigs (right there?)


Aquel,Aquellos/Aquella,Aquellas

"Aquel perro" - That dog ([way] over there?)

"Aquellos perros" - Those dogs ([way] over there?)

"Aquella gata" - That cat ([way] over there?)

"Aquellas gatas" - Those cats ([way] over there?)


Now for an actual test on my part:

"Aquella guerra desde hace mucho tiempo" - "That war from long ago"

"Aquella guerra allá" - "That war over there" <- (as in across the ocean)

"Esa guerra allá" - "That war over there" <- (as in 500 feet away)


So is my grammar right in all of these?
