That Over There
Those Over There
adjective, こそあど word
Remember how あれ means "that one over there"? Well, あの means that, and goes before a noun to point out something that is far away from both you and the person you're talking to, such as あの本 (that book over there) or あの子犬 (that puppy over there).
Notice how these words starting with あ are far away from you? We'll be learning a few more of these, and they all follow the same pattern! What's more, you’ll notice that words ending in の tend to go before a noun.
