Narrator / Point of View Definition
Point of view is a way of thinking about
things, which shows us the opinion, or
feelings of the individuals involved in a
situation.
1. “Mr. Stewart is a principled man. He acts by the book and never lets
you deceive him easily.”
2. “I felt like I was getting drowned with shame and disgrace.”
3. “Sometimes you cannot clearly discern between anger and frustration.”
Narrator / Point of View Examples
Return to Driver
Examples of point of view belong to one of these three major
kinds:
1. First person point of view involves the use of either of the two
pronouns “I” and “we”.
Example:
“I felt like I was getting drowned with shame and
disgrace.”
2. Second person point of view employs the pronoun “you”.
“Sometimes you cannot clearly discern between anger and
frustration.”
3. Third person point of view uses pronouns like “he”, “she”, “it”,
“they” or a name.
“Mr. Stewart is a principled man. He acts by the book and never
lets you deceive him easily.”

» Do the subjects and verbs agree?
» Am I using the correct form of the verb?
– Word Choice
– Transitions• Do you have transition?
• Is there a smooth flow between the paragraphs?
•
Proof: Read it from the bottom up. Do the sentences, alone, sound strong?
•
Make the changes you agree with.
– Repeat if Necessary

(Rule 6) Use a comma to separate the city from the state and after the state in a
document. If you use the two-letter capitalized form of a state in a document, you do
not need a comma after the state.
Note: With addresses on envelopes mailed via the post office, do not use any
punctuation.
Examples:
I lived in San Francisco, California, for 20 years.
I lived in San Francisco, CA for 20 years.
(Rule 7)Use commas to surround degrees or titles used with names. Commas are no
longer required around Jr. and Sr. Commas never set off ll, lll, and so forth.
Example: Al Mooney, M.D., knew Sam Sunny Jr. and Charles Starr lll.
Return to Driver
On your paper, write 1 sentence per day for each of the
examples.
(Rule 5a) Use a comma to separate the day of the month
from the year and after the year.
Example: Kathleen met her husband on December 5, 2003, in
Mill Valley, California.
_________________________________________________
(Rule 5b) If any part of the date is omitted, leave out the
comma.
Example: They met in December 2003 in Mill Valley.
_________________________________________________

Review
Return to Driver
(Rule 1) To avoid confusion, use commas to separate words and
word groups with a series of three or more.
Example: The $10 million estate is to be split among my husband,
daughter, son,
and nephew. Omitting the comma after son would indicate that
the son and nephew would have to split one-third of the estate.
(Rule 2) Use a comma to separate two adjectives when the word
and can be inserted
between them.
Examples: He is a strong, healthy man. We stayed at an
expensive summer resort.
You would not say expensive and summer resort, so no comma.

Verbal Irony
Return to Driver
Example
• The title of the poem, “The Unknown Citizen” employs verbal irony, as poet describes a
person as the one whom everyone knows, but he is still unknown.
•
Also by deliberately capitalizing the common words, speaker makes them sound
meaningless, ironic and sarcastic: “the Greater Community”, “Social Psychology”, “Union”,
“Public Opinion” and “High Grade Living” etc.
•
Simply, through verbal irony, the poet shows how governmental agencies, which should
serve human beings, have rather enslaved them.
(The Unknown Citizen by D.H Lawrence)
• The point of view is _________ person.
3rd person
• The theme is ______________________.
Control over a group of people
The tone is _________________________.
These all words sound formal, pompous, bureaucratic and arrogant.
•

Example #2
Observe the tone of a short story “The School” by Donald Barthelme:
“And the trees all died. They were orange trees. I don’t know why they died, they just
died. Something wrong with the soil possibly or maybe the stuff we got from the
nursery wasn’t the best. We complained about it. So we’ve got thirty kids there, each
kid had his or her own little tree to plant and we’ve got these thirty dead trees. All
these kids looking at these little brown sticks, it was depressing.”

Newspaper Article Format
A typical newspaper article contains five (5) parts:
•
Headline: This is a short, attention-getting statement about the event.
•
Byline: This tells who wrote the story.
•
Lead paragraph: This has ALL of the who, what, when, where, why and how in
it. A writer must find the answers to these questions and write them into the
opening sentence(s) of the article.
•
Explanation: After the lead paragraph has been written, the writer must
decide what other facts or details the reader might want to know. The writer
must make sure that he/she has enough information to answer any important
questions a reader might have after reading the headline and the lead
paragraph. This section can also include direct quotes from witnesses or
bystanders.
•
Additional Information: This information is the least important.
Thus,
if the news article is too long for the space it needs to fill, it
can be
shortened without rewriting any other part. This part can include information
about a similar event.
