What Is Third Person? (with Examples)




The term third person refers to someone else,
i.e., not the writer or a group including the writer (I, me, we, us) or

the
writer's audience (you). Whenever you use a noun (as opposed to pronoun), it is
in the third person.





The personal pronouns (I, you, he, she, it, we,
you, they) are grouped into one of three categories:


First person: I and we


Second person: you


Third person: He/She/It and They


Note: First person refers to the speaker himself
or a group that includes the speaker (i.e., I, me, we, and us). Second person
refers to the speaker's audience (i.e., you).
