N4 · Other · この/その/あの/どの + noun

this/that/that over there/which

この/その/あの/どの + noun

These prenominals must modify a noun and differ by distance from speaker and listener.

They cannot stand alone; use これ/それ/あれ/どれ for standalone pronouns.

この本は誰のですか。

Whose book is this?

Do not say このは; この must be followed by a noun.

Memorize “この/その/あの/どの” as one fixed chunk, then practice by replacing words in the example sentence. Learn the connection first, then the nuance.
