This = is something you see (vas) It = is something you dont see (no vas) or like he" and "she". this (esta) it (lo/ella/el) this dinner is delicious = esta la cena es deliciosa if someone asks what is that and points to a car - you say: this is a car (if you see the car) if you hear from distance a car (and dont see it) - someone will ask you what was that - you say: it is a car (you dont see it) it is a car

This can be tricky. "It" refers to a particular object, thing, or several different things. Normally when beginning a conversation, "it" isn't used right away. You usually respond back to a statement made, using "it" instead of whatever you are referring to. Here are a couple of examples. 1. Do you have the pen? -No, I don't know where IT is. 2. Where is my car? - I do not know where IT is. Make sense? With "this", it refers to an object, person, thing, etc... typically nearest you. Couple of examples: 1. Do you have THIS paper that I'm holding? 2. Where can I find THIS type of car? Does that help? I hope so.

It is a personal pronoun like he and she. When "it" is used in a sentence, it has to be already refered earlier. Example: I ate an apple. It was good. "This" is used to refer to something which is nearer to the speaker at the time he or she is speaking. Example: This pen is blue. Hope it make sense
