that
Usage Note
Cet is the special masculine form used before a vowel or silent h, swapping in for ce to dodge a clash, as in cet homme or cet été. It sounds identical to the feminine cette, so only the spelling reveals which one you mean; without a following vowel the word reverts to ce.
Examples
"Cet homme est grand."
Natural Translation
This man is tall.
