How to Use Demonstrative Determiners

 This That These and Those are known as demonstrative determiners, or demonstrative
pronouns. They are often used with the location words here and there or prepositional
phrases such as on the corner. Demonstrative determiners means that we are
demonstrating to someone that one or more objects are here or there. In other words, we
use demonstrative determiners to show something to someone. (area cerrada y mas
pequeña)
 Examples:
 David: Could you give me that book on the table over there?
Frank: Do you mean this book here?
David: Yes, that book.
Frank: Here you are. Oh, could you give me those magazines on the table over there?
David: These? Sure, here you are.
Examples

larger area while there refers to something further away.(area mas grande)
