SDS Spanish Module 10: Demonstrative Adjectives [Instant Access]

In the last lesson, we covered demonstrative adjectives in the singular form. To review again, we’ll use gato. En el cuarto tengo tres gatos. este gato ese gato y aquel gato este gato ese gato y aquel gato So again, Este means 'this' ese means 'that' And aquel also means 'that' also, but it’s farther away. So these words are helping us to understand better which object we are talking about. Now if the word is feminine, like gata (the female cat). I would have… En el cuarto tengo tres gatas. esta gata esa gata aquella gata But what would happen if I had more than one group of cats like this. If they’re masculine… Este gato would become estos gatos. Ese gato would become esos gatos. And aquel gato would become aquellos gatos. Entonces, en el cuarto tengo muchos gatos. Estos gatos Esos gatos Y aquellos gatos For gata… esta gata; estas gatas esa gata; esas gatas aquella gata; aquellas gatas
