Third person limited is a way to tell a story where the narrator focuses on one character. The narrator uses words like "he," "she," or "they." This means the reader can only know what this one character thinks and feels. Other characters' thoughts are not known to the reader.
For example, if the story is about a girl named Anna, we might know what Anna is thinking, but we do not know what her friend is thinking. This style helps the reader understand Anna better. It is different from third person omniscient, where the narrator knows what everyone is thinking and feeling in the story.
So, in third person limited, we get a close look at just one person's feelings and experiences. It's like seeing the world through their eyes, but we still have some distance from other characters. This makes the story interesting and gives the reader a special connection to the chosen character.
