Answer 1

The answer is D.

Third-person POV uses the pronouns they, them, she, he, his, and her. Omniscient as a word means “knowing everything.” When applied to third-person POV, it means a narrator who writes in third person, and knows the thoughts of a few or MANY different characters (in other words, a character who “knows everything”).Choice D is closest to this answer.

Choice A describes third person limited
