What is a demonstrative pronoun?

A demonstrative pronoun is a type of pronoun that is used to point out or identify a specific person, place, thing, or idea. It replaces a noun and indicates whether the noun is near or far in distance or time. There are four demonstrative pronouns: "this" and "these" refer to objects that are close in distance or time, while "that" and "those" refer to objects that are farther away. Demonstrative pronouns can also be used to emphasize or draw attention to something.
