What does second person look like?

Second person is a point of view in writing where the narrator addresses the reader directly. It's characterized by the use of "you," "your," and "yours."

Here's a simple example:

First person: "I walked down the street, feeling the sun on my face."

Second person: "You walk down the street, feeling the sun on your face."

Here are some common features of second-person narration:

* Direct address: The reader is directly addressed with "you."

* Personal engagement: The reader is invited to participate in the story, making it more immersive.

* Instructions and commands: Second person is often used in instructional writing, games, and interactive fiction.

* "You" can be singular or plural: It can address a single reader or a group.

Examples of second person in literature and other contexts:

* Choose Your Own Adventure books: These books rely heavily on second person to create an interactive experience for the reader.

* "The Great Gatsby" by F. Scott Fitzgerald: Fitzgerald uses second person in a few lines to create a sense of intimacy and draw the reader into Gatsby's world.

* Instruction manuals: Second person is common in manuals and how-to guides because it provides direct instructions to the reader.
