In this deck, you'll learn how to point to a specific person or object by saying 'this' or 'these' directly in front of a noun. In Russian, this demonstrative word changes its form to match the gender and number of the noun it modifies.

To say 'this' before a masculine noun, use 'этот'. For example, 'этот город' means 'this city', and 'этот студент' means 'this student'. You can use it with any masculine noun, like 'этот брат' for 'this brother', or 'этот стол' for 'this table'.
