Question

What kind of pronoun is These in the sentence?


demonstrative


reflexive


relative


intensive

Answer 1

I think it's relative.

Answer 2

Demonstrative

Step-by-step explanation:

Demonstrative pronouns are pronouns (Substitutes of nouns or noun phrases) that point or indicate specific things, elements, people or animals that are near or far in distance or time. They can be singular or plural and there are four: "this," "that," "those" and "these" (which it's plural and refers to elements near in distance or time). In the sentence, then, "These" is a demonstrative pronoun.
