Just wondering...

Question

What words can you use for THIS & THAT? I know you can use eso and ese for THAT...and este and esto for THIS. I don't understand when you use which one or for what gender. Are these all the words I can use? Thanks for your help!

Answer 1

No problem
It's just that it's easier to word search posts when they have specific words. Just try searching "translate", you get 90 pages.

Answer 2

Sorry about that, I was going to put "This and That" as my title, but it didn't come out like I wanted. I'll be more specific next time.

Answer 4

with masculine words (e.g. perro)
este = this
ese = that
aquel = that (over there)

with feminine words (e.g. casa)
esta = this
esa = that
aquella = that (over there)

used as a pronoun
esto = this (thing)
eso = that (thing)
aquello = that (thing over there)
