In real, traceable use. Part of the curated seed collection; community review is coming.
Traditional: 這些
These: points to several people or things near the speaker. It takes the place of a number and a measure word, so no measure word follows it: 这些菜 'these dishes', 这些人 'these people'. It can also stand alone: 这些都很贵 'these are all expensive'.
Những cái này, những người này: chỉ nhiều người hay vật ở gần người nói. Sau nó không cần số đếm hay lượng từ: 这些菜 (những món này), 这些人 (những người này). Cũng đứng một mình được: 这些都很贵 (mấy cái này đều đắt).
PronounRegister: neutral
