Learning Objective
I can distinguish between first-person, third-person limited, and third-person omniscient points of view and explain their characteristics.
- 1
In third-person point of view, the narrator is outside the story, observing characters and referring to them using pronouns like he, she, or they.
- 2
Third-person omniscient point of view means the narrator knows all, allowing them to reveal the inner thoughts and feelings of multiple characters.
- 3
Third-person limited POV focuses on the thoughts and experiences of one character, while third-person objective POV only reports what is seen and heard, without revealing any inner thoughts.
