re, whatever it may be.)

_Este, ese, aquel_, etc., are accented when a stress is placed on them;
_Este_ is also used for "the latter" and _Aquel_ for "the former."[96]

Instead of _ese_, etc., _aquel_, etc., before _que_ and _de_, the
definite article is generally used, as--

El aumento de precio de hoy y el[97] que tuvimos ayer: The increase in
price to-day and that we had yesterday.

La remesa anterior y la que haremos hoy: The previous shipment and that
we are sending to-day.

El flete del aceite y el de los vinos: The freight on oil, and that on
wine.

Mis documentos y los de mi jefe: My documents and those of my chief
(employer).

Lo que (instead of "aquello que") escribo es la pura verdad: That which
(what) I write is the honest truth.

[Footnote 94: "Eso" and "aquello" are used practically
indiscriminately.]

[Footnote 95: French "ceci," "cela."]

[Footnote 96: Esto es--namely, that is ...]

[Footnote 97: It might appear to be an abbreviation of "aquel," but it
is not] so.

A preposition may precede _que_, as--

?Que libro es ese? Es el en que escribimos ayer: What book is that? It
is that in which we wrote yesterday.

?Que carta quiere V.? La a que me referi ayer: What letter do you want?
That to which I referred yesterday.

?Que plumas son estas? Son las con que yo escribia: What pens are these?
They are those with which I wrote.

_Esta_ translates the commercial phrase, "our place," "our market."

_Esa_ translates the commercial phrase, "your place," "your market."

As--

El mercado en esta esta muy flojo: The market here is very slack.

Nos dicen los armadores que el cargamento llegara a esa el 15 del mes
entrante: The shipowners inform us that the cargo will reach your town
on the 15th prox.
