Pointing Words

សព្វនាមចង្អុលបង្ហាញ

We use these words to point at things. It depends on how near or far they are!

យើងប្រើពាក្យទាំងនេះដើម្បីចង្អុលបង្ហាញវត្ថុ។ វាអាស្រ័យលើថាតើវត្ថុនោះនៅជិត ឬនៅឆ្ងាយ!
👇

Near (ជិត)

អ្វីដែលនៅជិតយើង
This = 1 (ឯកវចនៈ)
This sketch គំនូរព្រាងនេះ (មួយ)
These = 2+ (ពហុវចនៈ)
These shirts អាវយឺតទាំងនេះ (ច្រើន)
👉

Far (ឆ្ងាយ)

អ្វីដែលនៅឆ្ងាយពីយើង
That = 1 (ឯកវចនៈ)
That fish trap ទ្រូត្រីនោះ (មួយ)
Those = 2+ (ពហុវចនៈ)
Those characters តួអង្គទាំងនោះ (ច្រើន)

The "Is/Are" Trap!

Match the verb with the pointing word!

(ប្រយ័ត្ន! "This/That" ត្រូវប្រើជាមួយ "is"។ "These/Those" ត្រូវប្រើជាមួយ "are"។ កុំប្រើច្រឡំគ្នា!)
This are my shirts. ❌
These are my shirts. ✅
Pronunciation Trap!

"This" and "These" sound different!

(ការបញ្ចេញសំឡេងពាក្យទាំងពីរនេះងាយច្រឡំគ្នាណាស់!)
This
Short 'i' and 's' sound (/ðɪs/)
These
Long 'ee' and 'z' sound (/ðiːz/)

Yes, you can! We often use "that" to ask about people who are far away, or when we hear someone but can't see them (e.g., "Is that you, John?"). Good question! 👥

Why do we say "this morning" but not "that morning" for today?

We use "this" for things that are close in *time*, not just distance! "This morning" is close to now (today). We use "that morning" to talk about a day far in the past. ⏳
