Narrative perspective Flashcards
First person
the form of pronouns and verbs people use when speaking or writing about themselves: “I,” “me,” and “my” are first person singular pronouns, and “we,” “us,” and “our” are first person plural pronouns.
Second person
The second-person point of view belongs to the person (or people) being addressed. This is the “you” perspective. Once again, the biggest indicator of the second person is the use of second-person pronouns: you, your, yours, yourself, yourselves.

When you speak or write in the third person, you’re talking about someone else, rather than speaking about yourself or directly addressing someone. Third person pronouns include “she,” “he,” and “they.”
