Answer 1

Hook:
- Definition: An opening line or situation that grabs the reader’s attention.
- Example sentence: “The day the town vanished, Maria found a single shoe on the windowsill.”
- Memory cue: Hook = fishhook — it catches the reader.

Narrator:
- Definition: The voice or character telling the story.
- Example sentence: “As your narrator, I’ll tell you what Lydia saw that night.”
- Memory cue: Narrator = narrator of a movie — the one telling you the story.

Point of View (POV):
- Definition: The perspective from which a story is told (first, second, third).
- Example sentence: First person: “I couldn’t sleep.” Second person: “You can’t sleep.” Third person: “He couldn’t sleep.”
- Memory cue: POV = position of view — whose eyes we see through.

Third-person limited POV:
- Definition: Narration in third person that is closely tied to one character’s thoughts and perceptions.
- Example sentence: “Ethan stared at the letter, convinced it meant the end of everything.” (We only know Ethan’s inner thoughts.)
- Memory cue: Limited = one mind.

Third-person omniscient POV:
- Definition: Third-person narration that can show multiple characters’ thoughts and a broader knowledge of events.
- Example sentence: “Maya wondered if she should go; across town, Jonah had already decided he wouldn’t wait.” (We know both characters’ minds.)
- Memory cue: Omniscient = all-seeing.

Dialogue:
- Definition: Words spoken between characters, usually shown with quotation marks.
- Example sentence: “‘Are you coming?’ she asked. ‘Give me five minutes,’ he replied.”
- Memory cue: Dialogue = conversation on the page.
