Opinion - Page 16

An opinion is a personal belief, judgment, or view regarding a particular subject, which is not necessarily based on fact or knowledge. Opinions are subjective and can vary widely among individuals; they reflect personal preferences, interpretations, or feelings rather than objective reality. Opinions can be informed by experiences, emotions, upbringing, culture, and social influences. Unlike facts, which are verifiable and can be universally accepted, opinions are inherently individual and can change over time. They play a crucial role in discussions, debates, and democratic processes, as they contribute to the diversity of perspectives on issues ranging from politics and ethics to art and personal matters.
