Question

You are helping a classmate edit this story. Your classmate decides to change the point of view and write the story from the third person point of view as if the story happened to a group of friends. What change is necessary? Names of the friends should be included. The pronoun we should be changed to they. The pronoun we should be changed to I. Explain in more detail the lesson the friends learned.

Answer 1

To change the story from first person to third person point of view, first-person pronouns like 'I', 'me', and 'we' should be changed to third-person pronouns such as 'they', 'he', 'she', or the friends' names.

Step-by-step explanation:

To change the point of view of the story from first person to third person, it is necessary to change the pronouns used in the narration. If the original story used first-person pronouns such as I, me, and we, these would need to be changed to third-person pronouns such as they, he, she, or the friends' names to reflect the third person point of view.

For example, a sentence that originally reads "We went to the park after school" would change to "They went to the park after school" in the third person point of view. This shift enables the story to be told as if an outside observer is describing the events that happen to the group of friends, rather than the friends themselves narrating the story.

Answer 2

Names of the friends should be included.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you don't include the names of the friends people would get easily lost and confused.
