Measure words with "this" and "that"

“这”和“那”是汉语中的指示代词，分别表示近指和远指。使用时后面必须跟一个量词（如“个”、“本”、“张”等），再跟名词，形成“这/那 + 量词 + 名词”的结构。

“这” (this) and “那” (that) are demonstrative pronouns in Chinese, indicating proximity and distance respectively. When used, they must be followed by a measure word (such as '个', '本', '张') and then a noun, forming the structure 'this/that + measure word + noun'.

使用“这”和“那”时，量词的选择取决于所修饰的名词。例如，“书”用“本”，“人”用“个”，“桌子”用“张”。句子中，“这”表示离说话者近的事物，“那”表示离说话者远的事物。

When using 'this' and 'that', the measure word is chosen based on the noun being modified. For example, 'book' uses '本', 'person' uses '个', 'table' uses '张'. In a sentence, '这' refers to something near the speaker, '那' refers to something far from the speaker.
