Demonstrative pronouns point to specific things. They can be singular or plural, and they can be used to refer to things that are near or far away.
Singular demonstratives refer to one thing, while plural demonstratives refer to more than one thing.
Near demonstratives refer to things that are close to the speaker, while far demonstratives refer to things that are farther away.
Here's a breakdown of the examples:
* "This" is a near singular demonstrative, referring to something close to the speaker.
* "That" is a far singular demonstrative, referring to something farther away from the speaker.
* The second example uses both "this" and "that", comparing two specific cars.
