Which One Is Correct: These Give Us or Do These Give Us

Which One Is Correct: 'These Give Us' or 'Do These Give Us'

Your sentence structure is erroneous, and I'm scared to answer this question based on assumptions. However, I think you wanted to ask which one of these expressions is correct: "give us these,” and “these give us."

Proper Usage of "Give Us These" and "These Give Us"

"Give Us These" is actually a correct expression if you are pointing at items close to you. If the items aren't close, the appropriate form is "give us those." Additionally, if you are pointing at just one item close to you, you should use "give us this" and not "give us these." Here are the proper usages:

This To indicate a singular object These To indicate more than one object.

For example:

This fork gives us heartburn.

However, if you are indicating items at a distance or pointing at multiple items:

Those forks give us heartburn.

On the other hand, "these give us" is inappropriate unless you add a comma right after the word "these." You can say, "These! Give us." In this case, you are breaking down your expression to the person you are talking to and emphasizing the word "these." However, you still need to realize that you have to emphasize "these" in that expression. That means you will first indicate what you want, and when you feel that the person you are talking to clearly knows what you are pointing at, then you can add the next two words give us.

Examples and Contexts

Both of your examples are incomplete sentences:

Example: In a restaurant these spices give us heartburn.

They are just different and both can be correct, one as a statement and the other as a question. Here are examples with context:

For bottles of wine:

Statement: These give us headaches.

Question: Do these give us headaches?

Answer: Quite possibly.

Conclusion

Correct usage of English sentence structure is crucial for clear communication. Whether you are pointing at items close or far, using the correct pronoun and verb can significantly improve your sentence structure and clarity.
