The word "那些" is formed through the straightforward combination of two fundamental linguistic units: the demonstrative character "那" (nà), which means "that", and the plural suffix character "些" (xiē), which denotes an indefinite plurality or "some". It is created by placing the plural indicator directly after the demonstrative, merging the concept of pointing at something specific with the concept of a nonspecific multiple quantity, thereby producing a new, single term that functions to point out a group of items at a distance.
