Demonstrative pronouns
Demonstrative pronouns are used to mark which noun is referenced. As in other Germanic and Indo-European languages, Wistrish does not distinguish between demonstrative pronouns and determiners: both use the same words.
Demonstrative pronouns automatically make the nouns definite: meaning that all adjectives that modify them should take weak forms.
Wistrish has 3 demonstrative pronouns:
- π·πΉπ β this: physically or abstractly close to the speaker / listener.
- πΈπ° β that: something distant and out of sight, generic out-of-reach determiner.
- πΎπ°ΜπΉπ½π β yon: something distant but within the line of sight, rarer: something abstractly far yet close enough.
