First Person and Third Person

Answer explanation

Most often, Second person point of view isn’t used in creative writing, but rather instructional writing – like this blog post. When you see the word “you” and the narrator is speaking directly to you, it’s the second-person point of view.

Front

Three variations of the third person point of view exist.

TRUE

Answer explanation

THIRD PERSON LIMITED narrator uses “he/she/they” when speaking about the character you’re following. They know that character’s inner thoughts and feelings but nobody else’s. It’s much like the first person, but instead of the character telling the story, a narrator takes their place.

THIRD PERSON MULTIPLE is the same as LIMITED except that the narrator now knows the inner thoughts and feelings of several characters.

The last, THIRD PERSON OMNISCIENT, is when the narrator still uses “he/she/they” but has all of the knowledge. They know everything about everyone.
