Underlined word?

OpenStudy (yinshy):

that

OpenStudy (xofallenangelox):

It's an adjective. A demonstrative adjective.

OpenStudy (xofallenangelox):

Which means: Demonstrative adjectives are adjectives that are used to modify a noun so that we know which specific person, place, or thing is mentioned. Examples of Demonstrative Adjectives: When you list two items, you can separate them with a conjunction.

OpenStudy (anaise):

It's a pronoun

OpenStudy (anaise):

That is a pronoun.

OpenStudy (anaise):

Lol.

OpenStudy (xofallenangelox):

No it isn't... pronouns are he/she/they etc.

OpenStudy (anaise):

It, you or that also

OpenStudy (xofallenangelox):

No. "That" is a demonstrative adjective.

OpenStudy (anaise):

That, is a pronoun.

OpenStudy (xofallenangelox):

OpenStudy (anaise):

It could work both ways :(

OpenStudy (anaise):

I say pronoun, because that is a pronoun...I realize I'm wrong >.< It is a demonstrative adjective, it follows the rules of one...sorry :)

OpenStudy (yinshy):

@xoFallenAngelox and @Anaise

OpenStudy (xofallenangelox):

It doesn't have to say the type of adjective, it's an adjective.

OpenStudy (anaise):

Try adjective :)...although I do think it would be more specific D:
