The everyday forms are den här and det här for "this", den där and det där for "that", with de här and de där in the plural - and the noun after them keeps its definite ending. To ask a price, say Vad kostar det?
Examples
- Vad kostar den här skjortan?
- How much is this shirt?
- Jag tar den där, inte den här.
- I'll take that one, not this one.
- Vad kostar skorna?
- How much are the shoes?
The mistake to avoid
Swedish marks it twice: den här skjortan, with the definite ending kept on the noun.
