How to use
The demonstrative pronoun 'ten' matches the gender, case, and number of the noun it modifies (e.g., ta, to, te, ci). A common mistake for learners is using the neutral 'to' in place of the masculine 'ten' when pointing at things. In casual speech, 'ten' is frequently used as a filler word, similar to 'like' or 'you know' in English.
