The word 'that' is a pronounwhen it takes the place of a noun in a sentence.

The word 'that' is an adjectivewhen it is placed before a noun to describe that noun.

Examples

pronoun: I think mother will like that.

adjective: I think mother will like that bouquet.

It can be either. The word 'that' (that something) is an adjective or a pronoun. The adverb 'that' is an intensifier for an adjective of adverb (e.g. that bad, that completely).

The word THAT can be an adjective (that car) or an adverb (that complicated)

It can also be a pronoun or a conjunction (he knew that he would lose).
