What is this? and What is that? In polish is "Co to jest?"

Question

Answer

Co to jest in Polish = both - What is this or Wath is that.
In English there is a difference between asking about something in depend of distance between you and that item. In Polish we don't have something like that. OK, in Polish this = to and that = tamto. But if you're asking - What is this/that? in Polish you're ALLWAYS asking Co to jest? or just shortly Co to? I hope that everything is clear for you now.

Answer

Also "Co to?" (slavic languages tend to eliminate the verb "To be")  
If I say ---What's that thing over there? > I think it is different from "--Co to jest?".
Bye!
