"This" is esto / este / esta (same spelling as está meaning "is" but with no accent mark).

The corresponding word for "that" is eso/esa.

esto (gender neutral) -- Esto no te incumbe (this is none of your business).

esta (fem), used after a noun -- esta mesa (this table).

este (masc), same as above -- este sillón (this armchair).

ésta (pron. dem. fem), used after a verb or as a subject --- ésta es mi casa (this is my house); ésta no es la manera de hacerlo (this is not the way to do so).

Sometimes it is similar to "it".

éste (pron. dem. masc), same as above --- No sé si éste sea mi saco (I don't know if this is my coat); el libro era interesante; en éste había muchos relatos (The book was interesting. There were many stories in it)
