All third-person narrators use the pronouns he, she, it, or they.
Both third person limited and third person omniscient points of view are told by a narrator who is not a character in the story. Both perspectives allow the reader insight into the thoughts and feelings of characters. However, third person omniscient provides a broader view of the story by revealing the thoughts and emotions of multiple characters, while third person limited focuses on the thoughts and emotions of only one character.
omniscient
A third-person limited narrator has insight into only one character, while a third-person omniscient narrator has insight into all the characters.
In third person limited, the narrator uses pronouns like "he," "she," or a character's name to refer to individuals in the story. The narrator only reveals the thoughts and feelings of one character, providing a restricted viewpoint compared to omniscient narration. This technique can help readers develop a deeper connection with the focal character while still maintaining some narrative distance.
Third person (limited omniscient).
The two types of third-person points of view are limited or omniscient. Limited third-person point of view focuses on the thoughts and feelings of one character, while omniscient third-person point of view provides insight into the thoughts and feelings of multiple characters.
In limited third person point of view, the narrator only knows the thoughts and feelings of one character, while in omniscient third person, the narrator knows the thoughts and feelings of multiple characters. Limited third person is more focused on one character's perspective, while omniscient third person provides a broader view of multiple characters.

A third-person limited narrator focuses on the thoughts and experiences of one character, while a third-person omniscient narrator can access the thoughts and experiences of multiple characters. The limited narrator provides a narrower perspective, while the omniscient narrator offers a broader view of the story.
A made-up category. A narrator is either omniscient or not - they can't be both.
The easiest way to do it is by seeing what you can see. for example, if you can see what the person is feeling, its third person limited or 1st person. but if you don't really know what anyone is thinking, then its third person omniscient.
