To make this short and discreet, as the thread on lang is going a bit slow could anyone aid me on this?


So...
For an object that's near someone else or the speaker
The "ko" syllable in "kore wa" would indicate that what you're talking about is closer to you. Which could be related to "this" in english
Similarily, is sore wa where it's closer to who you're speaking to which is comparable to "that" in english
But reading further I learned of a knew particle calledd
"a" (are wa, asoko wa, etc.) which indicated neirness to neither?
What would I compare that too?
Same for "do" in "dore wa, dono, etc."

It's always refreshing to see someone who is genuinely autistic posting on /jp/.

How would you use どの though?
It seems to be used in the presence of a thing, but then there's どの which also used for a thing.
For どれ it is used as: けいざいがくのほんはどれですか。(The economics book is which?)
How would どの be used with a thing?
I've already gotten down the rest of the "do" series of demonstratives. (donohito, donokata, doko)

>>11077721
It isn't, and I feel bad for posting here as someone who frequents here themselves. But /lang/ is slow, and I have faith that some of you know despite what some of you and others say.
This is /jp/ after all, hopefully you've been doing your reps.

'kore' is a another spelling for 'core', like a core of an apple.
'sore' on the other hand is just as it's spelled, you say it when you feel sore. For example, "kishuu anaru sekusu no tame ketsu ga sore" which means "my butt is sore from surprise butt sex".
And finally 'are' is also used as you would guess. And example sentence, "are kisama daijoubu" meaning "are you okay".

Dude, where are you learning from?

>How would you use どの though?
どの and どれ is the same thing, but you use one or the other depending on whether you follow it with a noun or not.

どの本? = which book?
どれ? = which?

どれ本 would be incorrect.
This works the same way for これ・この、それ・その、etc. For example:

これです = it's this one
この本です = it's this book

By the way, I think you should rethink your way of learning Japanese. You're not supposed to try to figure out the grammar, you just have to practice it a lot. You should only study grammar to have a general idea what's going on, because in reality grammar is far too complex to simplify it to specific rules.
