What is an autobiographical sentence?

Answer 1

An autobiographical sentence is any sentence that is written from a 'first person' perspective. This means that any sentence starting with 'I', 'we' etc which refers to the person writing the sentence can be termed as an autobiographical sentence. In other words anyone writing about their ideas, activities, events, feelings etc. or anything under the sun from their perspective provided they have 'first person' pronouns like 'I', 'we' etc. in the sentence can be considered as an autobiographical sentence. In many cases sentences following autobiographical sentences can also be considered as an autobiographical sentence even if it doesn't have a pronoun provided it clearly depicts the writer/speaker of the sentence.

For eg: 'We looked at each other. The hatred was mutual.' Here the second sentence can also be considered as an autobiographical sentence as it clearly shows the writer's feelings.

Other examples:

1.I like ice-cream.

2.We enjoy going for movies.

3.I shouldn't have allowed them to go without me.

To sum it up, an autobiographical sentence is one in which the speaker or writer is referring to himself or herself.
