1st person uses “I,we,me,us,mind,our, ect” 2nd person uses “you, yours,yourself” 3rd person uses “he,she,they,it,ect” So try finding these words in your story and see which pov it goes with

Answer:

Look at how the author wrote the story

If they use Me, Myself and I it is first person

Second person is the you perspective. (talking to you the reader)

Third person is the he/she/it/they perspective.
