What is the difference between the two Japanese words for the word this Kore and Kono?

The difference, in English, would be as follows:

'Kore' cannot precede a noun. It's for talking about something without actually mentioning the noun. Example: "This is silly." "This is so much fun." "This is delicious." You would use 'kore' in all of the equivalent Japanese sentences.

'Kono' on the other hand MUST precede a noun. It's when you are referring to an object specifically. Example: "This movie is silly." "This game is so much fun." "This pancake is delicious."

In Japanese:

"This is so much fun."

'Kore ha totemo tanoshii desu.'

You *cannot* say 'Kono ha totemo tanoshii desu.'

"This game is so much fun."

'Kono geemu ha totemo tanoshii desu.'

You *cannot* say 'Kore geemu ha totemo tanoshii desu.'

In short: 'Kore' is "this." 'Kono' is "this noun," where you MUST name the name.
