Hello, it's me again
Today I decided to write about a group of words, instead of just one. NOW BEFORE YOU CLICK OFF, these words have only one set meaning each, no kanji and only take about 2 sentences worth of reading to understand. So, let's start off with them
The hiragana characters are こ = ko, れ = re, そ = so, あ = a
In general, these words mean "this thing," "that thing," and "that thing over there" respectively in english
Let's go over their meanings one by one. First,
これ means this thing. It refers to something that is close to the person who is speaking.
in this gif, the board is near the dude, so if he refers to the board, he would say "これ• ko re" meaning "this board"
それ means that thing. It refers to something that is near the the person who is listening to the person who is speaking.
In this gif, if the dude is the listener and I am the speaker, then I would refer to the food as "それ • so re" meaning "that food"
あれ means that thing over there it refers to something far away from both speaker and listener.
in this gif, there is one speaker and one listener, the speaker is pointing to something far from both of them, so, he would refer to the thing he is pointing to as "あれ • a re" meaning "that thing over there"
If you have any questions, please aske me and I will try my best to explain😊
I would really appreciate advice on how to make these posts better. Please do try to be a little specific🙏😊
