and those.
A demonstrative pronoun may look like a demonstrative adjective, but it is used differently in a
sentence: it acts as a pronoun, taking the place of a noun.

Examples:
1. That is a good idea.
2. These are hilarious cartoons.
3. ______ is the day that we consider ourselves adults.

4. Can I have look at _____ trousers

all, any both, each, everyone, few, many, neither, none, nothing, several, some and somebody.
