View on talking in third person?

Postby maetropa » Fri Nov 18, 2011 9:10 pm

Not was wondering earlier what people thought of someone who talked in third-person?
Not finds it comforting, but tries not to if she knows someone in the same thread doesn't like it.

Not thinks third-person is okay, as long as you don't over-do it or act to childish, but just refer to oneself as if one was talking about a person next to them.

Also, if people want Not to stop talking in third-person for discussing opinions, she will try her very best ^__^

A certain person likes to talk in third person. Her name is Wolf. She also likes to talk in passive voice.

Talking in passive voice is hard, according to Wolf. But she tries!

Passive voice is when a person, like Wolf, decides to talk funny, and the subject of the sentence becomes the object. Wolf shall try to keep talking in third person while she explains.

Wolf wrote:DEFINITION
ACTIVE VOICE The subject performs the action of the verb.
PASSIVE VOICE The subject receives the action of the verb; it is acted upon by someone/something.


For example:
Wolf will be overcome by the cow. The cow will have been mad at Wolf. Wolf will not have been happy with the cow.

Sort of. Wolf's Latin teacher explained it better. He is quite good at talking in passive voice.

Not does? Wolf thinks that is good.


Wolf has decided that her puppy is sleepy. Her puppy is not allowing Wolf to move, since she is laying on Wolf's lap......

Wolf apologizes. Wolf thinks you should perhaps begin a poll, and ask people why they answered the way they did?

Wolf thinks that talking in third person is fine as long as a person doesn't talk in third person on school papers. Teachers do not like that. They are usually okay with it being in class though. Wolf thinks that if more people talked in third person, people would get less irritated at each other all the time.

Wolf has to go now... she apologizes again...
