A statement of FACT can be proved TRUE or FALSE. A statement of OPINION is what someone believes or thinks. There may or may not be a good reason to think this way.Words that give you clues that a statement is an opinion are believe, like, and should. These words express how someone feels. A FACT can be proved true or false. An OPINION is what someone believes or
thinks. K-12 English SOL Institute
