🧠 Grammar Focus
Grammatik im Fokus
Use ‘these’ for things close to you. Use ‘those’ for things far from you. Both words are for plural nouns. Use this structure: ‘These are …’ or ‘Those are …’ A common mistake is to use ‘these’ for far things or ‘those’ for near things. Look at these books (near). Look at those cars (far). These apples are red. Those dogs are big.
“These” benutzt man für Dinge, die nah bei dir sind. “Those” benutzt man für Dinge, die weit weg sind. Beide Wörter stehen für Mehrzahl. Die Struktur ist: “These are …” oder “Those are …”. Ein häufiger Fehler ist, “these” für entfernte Dinge oder “those” für nahe Dinge zu verwenden. Schau dir diese Bücher (nah) an. Schau dir jene Autos (weit weg) an. Diese Beispiele zeigen das deutlich.
