definitely that's a noun okay now the word perspective means a way of thinking about and understanding something at usually it could be a certain work of a person maybe some issues in the society and life in general and usually you use this word okay nothing sentences he help us see the problem from A New Perspective or a new point of view a new angle and every time we learn we always have to make sure that perspective perspective perspective from others second okay it can also mean our ability to understand which things are truly important and which things are not so ETO we're trying to weigh things is it giving significance in my life or day-to-day work or so usually we use this one sample liner I was trying to gain some perspective on the things that I learned in senior high school or I was deciding which things were imported and which things were not that's all about perspective so Sana um will apply all the things that we need which we deem important which we deem significant or valuable Saturn at alumni alumn from different perspective jump into a conclusion without checking the perspective of others and judgment pattern towards decisions towards people and whatever actions
