How To Use This, That, These & Those | English Speaking Practice

The real difference between this, that, these, and those - not just the textbook rule (near/far, singular/plural), but how native speakers actually use these four small words to show emotional distance, tell stories, make introductions, and sound natural in everyday conversation. You'll also learn the most common mistakes learners make with these words, and how to fix them for good. 👥 Perfect For English learners at B1-B2 level who understand the basics but still hesitate or make small mistakes with this/that/these/those in real conversation. If you've ever paused mid-sentence unsure which word to use, this episode is for you. 📝 How to Use This Lesson Listen actively - repeat the example sentences out loud, pause when we ask a question, and try answering before we do. This episode uses real dialogue, everyday situations (shopping, storytelling, phone calls, emotions), and simple corrections you can start using immediately. 💬 Practice Question Write two sentences in the comments: one starting with "This is..." and one starting with "Those were...", about your own life. We read every single comment! 🔔 Enjoyed this episode?
