Definition
该省 is a formal demonstrative phrase meaning 'the said province' or 'that province'. It is used in official documents, news reports, and legal texts to refer to a province already mentioned in the context. The structure 该 + noun (该地区, 该公司) creates a definite reference and is typical of written Chinese, not everyday conversation.
