Speaking in the second person is when the main person of interest is referred to as "you". For example, in a narrative, instead of saying, "I jumped," or "He jumped," you would say, "You jumped". In conversation, when you speak to someone you are often speaking in the second person when you refer to someone as "you". A common example of writing in the second person would be a letter.
