Difference Between Aquí, Ahí and Allí in Spanish

- “aquí” means “(en) este lugar”: where the speaker is, or some nearby location
- “ahí” means “(en) ese lugar”: where the hearer is, or some location that is neither near nor far but somewhere in-between
- “allí” means “(en) aquel lugar”: where neither the speaker nor the hearer is, or some far away location

Two simple examples:

- “Yo estoy aquí, tú estás ahí y él está allí.”
- “Esto está aquí, eso está ahí y aquello está allí.”
