    How it works

    This sentence uses the demonstrative pronoun '这' (zhè) meaning 'this', followed by the verb '表明' (biǎomíng) meaning 'to indicate' or 'to show'. The particle '了' (le) indicates completion or a change of state. '一个问题' (yí gè wèntí) means 'a problem', with '一个' (yí gè) being a numeral-classifier combination.
