In the case of “that’s what she said,” “that” would be a pronoun. But in this case, since he’s asking which adjective it’d be, it’s not “that’s what she said,” but “‘that’ is what she said,” where “that” is a quoted adjective.

I think you can also use “that” as a wedge if you have an unsteady table or nightstand.

I also read somewhere that “that” makes a nice garnish if you’re cooking chicken or lamb.

‘That’ can be used as both a pronoun and an adjective:

‘That is an excellent comic.’ (pronoun)

‘That comic is excellent.’ (adjective)

It has many other uses as well!

Until next time,

“That” is a pronoun. Is this what happens just 2 weeks after I leave, the entire site becomes a complete debauchery (noun)!?

Is “that” really an adjective?
