1.3. Recommendation

 Demonstrative adjectives: Should not be confused with demonstrative

pronouns.
They are identical, but a demonstrative adjective qualifies a noun
while a demonstrative pronoun stands alone.
Demonstrative pronouns are never placed before the noun. They can
be used even if the noun is not mentioned.

 Examples

Demonstrative Adjectives Demonstrative Pronouns

This hat is mine. This is mine.

That boy is my friend. That is my friend.

COMPLICATED (AVRIL LAVIGNE)

Chill out, what you're yelling for?

Lay back, it's all been done before
And if you could only let it be, you would see
I like you the way you are
When we're driving in your car
And you're talking to me one on one, but you've become

Somebody else round everyone else

Watching your back, like you can't relax
You're trying to be cool; you look like a fool to me
Tell me

Why do you have to go and make things so complicated?

I see the way you're
Acting like you're somebody else, it gets me frustrated
And life's like this, you
You fall and you crawl and you break and you take what you get
And you turn it into
Honestly, you promised me I'll never going to find you fake it
No, no, no

You come over unannounced

Dressed up like you're something else
Where you are and where it's at? You see, you're making me
Laugh out when you strike your pose
Take off all your preppy clothes
You know, you're not fooling anyone, when you've become

Somebody else round everyone else

Watching your back like you can't relax
You're trying to be cool, you look like a fool to me
Tell me
