Demonstrative Pronouns in German: dieser, jener

Hello students! Today, we'll learn about German demonstrative pronouns like dieser and jener, used to point at things. Dieser (this/these) refers to something close, for example, dieser Mann (this man). Jener (that/those) is for distant objects, but is rarely used in conversation. These pronouns are crucial because their endings change based on the noun's gender and case, just like der, die, das articles. Remember: dieser is for near, jener for far. Think of them as emphatic articles to say "this" or "that"! Keep practicing!
