8. An assertion is “standing up for one’s right” and
“not being taken advantage of”. It is a statement
that is somewhat true and somewhat false.

“not being taken advantage of”. It is a statement
that is somewhat true and somewhat false.
Example:
I understand what you’re going through that’s
why I am here for you.
10. If an opinion cannot be proven as true
and a fact is true, a statement that is
somewhat true and somewhat false is
called an assertion. An assertion may be
somewhat similar to an opinion (that is, a
belief of someone) but it can be proven as
true or false. It is a declaration of the
person’s belief and may be proven as true
or false.
11. • Statements of opinion usually start with signal phrases
such as I think or I believe and have words like best, worst,
beautiful, outstanding or should.
• Statements of opinion have to do with one’s preferences
or emotions.
Examples:
1. Chocolate ice cream is the best flavor of ice cream sold.
2. Ice cream sundaes should always come with a cherry
on top.
3. I think my outlook in life was changed by the pandemic.
12. • Statements of assertion do not start with the phrase I
think or I believe.
• Statements of assertion are considered as declarations
as if they were true even though they may not be.
Examples:
1. Doctors are the smartest people on Earth.
2. Milk is good for your body.
3. Taking vitamins every day makes you healthy and
strong.
