What type of pronoun includes words like 'this' and 'those'?

Subjective pronouns
Demonstrative pronouns
Objective pronouns
Indefinite pronouns

The correct answer is: Demonstrative pronouns

The correct answer is demonstrative pronouns because they specifically refer to something or someone in relation to the position or distance from the speaker. Words like "this," "that," "these," and "those" are categorized under demonstrative pronouns as they indicate particular objects or groups in a way that shows proximity or contrast. For example, "this" generally refers to something nearby while "those" refers to something further away. Recognizing their function is essential in understanding how references are made in communication. Subjective pronouns serve as the subject of a sentence, while objective pronouns function as the object of a verb or preposition. Indefinite pronouns refer to non-specific items or individuals, like "someone" or "anything," which is distinct from the specific pointing function of demonstrative pronouns.
