“Butterflies are great and pretty and purple!” “Butterflies are animals that are not made of butter!” Both of these phrases sound childish. But one of them is an opinion<\/a> and the other is a fact<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Facts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Facts are words that if bunched together, form a statement that is proven true. Did you ever hear someone say a sentence that you found very hard to prove wrong like “Venus is a planet<\/em>” or “baseball is a sport<\/em>“? That was a fact you heard. In the intro, you read another fact: “butterflies are animals that are not made of butter<\/em>“. How could you prove that wrong? How do you prove that butter makes up a butterfly? You can’t. As a result, facts are true statements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Opinions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Opinions are much different from facts. These opinions are statements that can be proven wrong. You probably heard someone say something like “that’s a very ugly painting<\/em>” or “veggie pizza is very tasty<\/em>” and did not agree with him\/her. Above, we read, “butterflies are great and pretty and purple<\/em>“. Do you think that butterflies are great and pretty and purple? Maybe or maybe not. But either ways, some think that butterflies are not great or\/and not pretty or\/and purple. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
