Demonstrative pronouns (this that these and those) direct attention where Relative pronouns (that which whom whose) are part of a subordinate cluase
The way to tell the difference between a pronoun and an adjective is:a pronoun takes the place of a noun in a sentence;an adjective is placed before a noun to describe that noun.A demonstrative pronoun takes the place of a noun indicating near or far in place or time.The demonstrative pronouns are: this, that, these, and those.Examples: These are a rich shade of gold.An adjective is placed in front of the noun it describes:Example: These marigolds are a rich shade of gold
Pronouns are words like he, him, her, she, it. They can be either subjects or objects. It is good to know the difference between subjects and objects, but it won't help you determine what is a pronoun and what is not.
A relative pronoun introduces a subordinate clause that gives information about the antecedent. The subordinate clause is called a relative clause because it provides information that 'relates' to the antecedent.The relative pronouns are: who, whom, whose, which, that.Example: The man who lives next door gave me flowers from his garden.
SUBJECTIVE pronouns are the SUBJECT of a sentence or a clause.The subjective pronouns are I, you, we, he, she, it, and they.OBJECTIVE pronouns are an OBJECT of a verb or a preposition.The objective pronouns are me, you, us, him, her, it, and them.Note that the pronouns 'you' and 'it' can be used as a subject or an object.Example subjective pronouns:We had lunch together. ('we' is the subject of the sentence)Helen left early because she had a dental appointment. ('she' is the subject of the second part of the compound sentence)I found the book that you wanted. ('you' is the subject of the relative clause)Example objective pronouns:We saw him at the mall today. ('him' is the direct object of the verb 'saw')Mom made us some sandwiches. (the pronoun 'us' is the indirect object of the verb 'made')We brought the flowers for you. ('you' is the object of the preposition 'for')
No, the pronouns 'she' and 'I' are subject pronouns used as the object of the preposition 'between'.The first use of the subject pronoun 'she' is correct as the subject of the clause (I hope she will keep...) even though it follows the verb 'hope'.The correct sentence is, "I hope she will keep this between her and me." The pronouns 'her' and 'me' are object pronouns needed as the object of the preposition 'between'.Or, to simplify, "I hope she will keep this between us."The pronoun 'us' is the plural, object pronoun.
Demonstrative pronouns show the relationship between a subject and the object. The demonstrative pronouns are this, that, these, and those.
Demonstrative adjectives are used to describe a noun. Demonstrative pronouns are used to replace a noun. They are: This - Este/Esta These - Estos/Estas That - Ese/Esa Those - Esos/Esas Examples: Demonstrative adjective - Me gusta este lenjuage (I like this language) Demonstrative pronoun - Me gusta ese (I like that)
The demonstrative pronouns are this, that, these, and those.A demonstrative pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun indicating near or far in place or time.An adjective is a word that is placed before a noun to describe the noun.Examples:This is mother's favorite music. (demonstrative pronoun)This music is mother's favorite. (adjective)

The difference between the interrogative pronouns who, whom, and which and the relative pronouns who, whom, and which is in their use.An interrogative pronoun introduces a question:Who was at the door?To whom should I give the notice?Which is your apartment?A relative pronoun introduces a relative clause, a group of words that relates to the antecedent which precedes it:The man who was at the door was the super.The one to whom I gave the notice was the super.The notice which I gave to the super was about a scheduled power outage.
The difference between "them" and "those" is that 'them' is an objective pronoun whereas 'those' is a demonstrative pronoun.
A demonstrative pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun indicating near or far in place or time.The demonstrative pronouns are: this, that, these, and those.Examples:This is my favorite movie.Mom likes these, but I like those.A distributive pronoun separates one person or a thing from a group of persons or things. The distributive pronouns always take singular verb.The distributive pronouns are: each, other, everyone, another, either and neitherExamples:Each spoke in turn.We didn't see either of the boys.They had two styles but neither was right for me.Only one girl was wearing shoes, the other was barefoot.Note: The demonstrative and distributive pronouns are pronouns when they take the place of a noun. When they are placed in front of a noun, they are functioning as adjectives. For example:Neither style was right for me.Mom likes these tulips, but I like those irises.
A relative pronoun introduces a subordinate clause, called a relative clause. A relative clause 'relates' information about it's antecedent.The relative pronouns are: who, whom, whose, which, that.Examples:The actor who played Hamlet was excellent.The man whose car I hit was very nice about it.The shoes that I bought were very expensive.The customer for whom I made that cake will pick it up at four.I found the book which is out of print at the book fair.
A demonstrative pronoun replaces a noun, while a demonstrative adjective modifies a noun. For example, in the sentence "This is my book," "this" is a demonstrative pronoun replacing the noun "book," and in the sentence "I want that book," "that" is a demonstrative adjective modifying the noun "book."
A interrogative pronoun is a pronoun that asks "who," "what," or "which one."qui - who, whatque - who, whatlequel - laquelle (fem)- which one
A demonstrative noun refers to a noun that specifies a particular entity or entities based on proximity or emphasis, often using demonstrative pronouns like "this," "that," "these," and "those." For example, in the phrases "this book" or "those cars," the demonstratives indicate which specific book or cars are being referred to. Demonstrative nouns help clarify and distinguish between objects or subjects in conversation.
Relative pronouns are pronouns.A pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun in a sentence, for example, 'John is coming, hewill be here at four.' The pronoun 'he' is taking the place of 'John' in the second part of the sentence.
