Diario #25
What we’ve discussed so far is demonstrative ADJECTIVES. Adjectives describe nouns:
Quiero esta manzana. – I want this apple.
Now we’ll talk about demonstrative PRONOUNS. Pronouns take the place of nouns:
No quiero esta manzana; quiero ésa. – I don’t want this apple; I want that one.
The only difference between a demonstrative ADJECTIVE and a demonstrative PRONOUN in Spanish is the accent mark. If it’s a pronoun, there’ll be an accent mark over the first “e” in the word.
If there’s a noun after it, it’s an adjective; if there’s not, it’s a pronoun.
