this/herein/hereof

Hi

...the provisions of this Statute established by the Founders...

CAN I REPLACE THE WORD "THIS" WITH "HEREIN" "the provisions herein established..."

HOW ABOUT "HEREOF" WHEN CAN I USE IT?

thanks

You can replace "of this Statute" with "herein" - but without more context it is not possible to say if you then change the entire meaning of the sentence. Both herein and hereof are not usually used apart from contracts and similar documents. Are you learning legal English?
