To say "this" or "these", Swedish combines **den**, **det**, or **de** with **här** (here). When used with a noun, the noun must be in its **definite form**. This creates a "double definite" structure, so "this sweater" is literally phrased as "the here the-sweater".

### En-words (den här)

For singular *en-words*, use **den här** followed by the definite noun.

### Ett-words (det här)

For singular *ett-words*, use **det här** followed by the definite noun.

{{item:895691}}

{{item:895698}}

### Plurals (de här)

To say "these", use **de här** with the definite plural noun.

### Without a Noun

You can also use these phrases on their own as pronouns. When pointing out a general situation or an unidentified object, the default is **det här**.
