2. Third-person limited: This point of view describes the story from an external perspective but focuses on the thoughts and feelings of a single character. It uses pronouns like "he" or "she" and provides details from the selected character's perspective.
3. Third-person omniscient: With this point of view, the narrator knows the thoughts and feelings of all the characters in the story. It uses pronouns like "he" or "she" and grants a broader, more all-knowing perspective.
