Demonstrative and presentational
particles differ from one another.
Demonstrative particles =
this/that
Presentation particles = here/there
The demonstrative particle tells us
"WHAT" is the
object.
Example:
This is a
chair.
(chair = object)
That is a
table. (table = object)
The presentational particle is used to inform
"WHERE" is the object.
Example:
Here is a chair.
(the chair is
here)
There is a table.
(the table is
there)

Listen then repeat out loud.
