Answers:
These sentences are perfect examples of the usage of the demonstrative adjectives in the Spanish language.
In this sense, the demonstrative adjectives are those words that accompany the noun to mark the distance that separates the speaker from the object, place or person to which they refer. In addition, they agree in gender and number with the noun they modify.
The three demonstrative adjectives are:
-Este (This): It describes a noun that is close to the speaker and the listener.
-Ese (That): It points out nouns that are further from the speaker and not easily reachable. The noun may be close to the listener, but not the speaker.
-Aquel (That over there): It is referred to nouns that are far away from both the speaker and the listener.
In addiiton, each one has four different forms that vary by gender and number, and they are listed below:
Este
Masculine Singular: Este (This)
Feminine Singular: Esta (This)
Masculine Plural: Estos (These)
Feminine Plural: Estas (These)
Ese
Masculine Singular: Ese (That)
Feminine Singular: Esa (That)
Masculine Plural: Esos (Those)
Feminine Plural: Esas (Those)
Aquel
Masculine Singular: Aquel (That over there)
Feminine Singular: Aquella (That over there)
Masculine Plural: Aquellos (Those over there)
Feminine Plural: Aquellas (Those over there)
Note, in Spanish (similar to English) the Demonstrative Adjective is generally written before the noun it modifies.
