1. these (demonstrative pronoun) — Common plural demonstrative pronoun (אֵל) meaning 'these', used to point to a group of persons or things in the immediate discourse context. Translated as 'these / the-these' (eng), 'estas / estos' (spa), 'इन / ये' (hin), 'هٰذِهِ / هَؤُلَاءِ' (arb), '이 / 이들' (kor), 'hizi / hawa' (swa). The two clusters differ only in the presence or absence of the Hebrew article (הָ), a grammatical distinction (definite vs. indefinite demonstrative) that does not constitute a separate lexical sense. 9×
