Demonstratives Grammar:
For Emphasis:
Use -ci for this and these, -là for that and those, on the end of the noun.
E.g., Ce crayon-ci: This crayon.
Demonstrative Pronouns:
Masc. Sing: Celui ; Pl. Ceux
Fem. Sing: Celle ; Pl. Celles
These are never used alone, but are always followed by: (1) a prepositional phrase. (2) a relative clause. Or (3) the particle -ci or -là used for emphasis or contrast. (E.g., Voulez-vous ce chapeau-ci? Non, je préfère celui-là.)
Neuter Demonstrative Pronouns:
Ceci: This ; Cela: That.
Cela is frequently contracted into Ça.
These usually refer to ideas or indefinite concepts.
