When using in speech compound forms of demonstrative pronouns there occurs direct deixis. In this case in current French preference is given to the form celui-là. In segmented sentences, reprise and anticipation only forms with particle - là are used. In monologic system of pronouns, that is in terms of objective narration adverb là takes (designated for it) dominant position. Distribution of compound forms is based on the principle of proximity/distance of co-referential noun in the text. According to the existing rules the choice should be made in favor of the form celui-ci if it is referred to “the latter”. However, even in this case the form with particle là appears with increasing frequency.
