Which word in the first sentence helps the reader figure out the point of view? Explain.

I don't know what sentance you're talking about but the answer would be a pronoun

Explanation:

1st POV would be the use of "I", "My",

ex: I went to the store

2nd POV: It's rare but it uses "You" as if you are in the story

ex: You went to say hi to them

3rd person: Uses pronouns "She/Her/Him/They/Them"

ex: They went to pet the dog

Hopefully this helps!
