Answer 1

First-person narration is told by a character in the story, while third-person narration is told from an outside perspective.

Step-by-step explanation:

In first-person narration, the story is told by a character in the story, and third-person narration uses a point of view from outside the narrative. In first-person narration, the narrator refers to themselves as 'I' and tells the story from their own perspective. For example, 'I walked down the street and saw a bright blue car.' In third-person narration, the narrator refers to characters by their names or third-person pronouns and tells the story from an outside perspective. For example, 'He walked down the street and saw a bright blue car.'
