Assertion and its types:
What is Assertion
-are declarative sentences that give one’s belief about
something else as if it is true though it may not be. It is
expressed as an argument. Usually, these assertions contain
languages that expresses evaluation such as useful,
significant, important, insightful, detailed, up-to-date,
comprehensive, practical, impressive, etc.
Four types of Assertions:
1. FACT
-is a statement that can be proven objectively by direct
Experience, testimonies of witnesses, verified observations, or the results of research.
Example:
The sampaguita’s roots are used for medical purposes, such as an anesthetic and a sedative.
2. OPINION
-are based on facts but are difficult to objectively verify because of the uncertainty of
producing satisfactory proofs of soundness.
-Clue words for opinion statements are: think, believe, seem, always, never, most, least,
worse, greatest.
Example:
The popularity of sampaguita flowers is most evident in places of worship.
3. CONVENTION
-is a way in which something is done, like traditions and norms.
-Conventions depend on historical precedent, laws, rules, usage, and
customs.
Example:
The sampaguita belongs to the genus Jasminum of the family Oleaceae.
4. PREPERENCE
-are based on personal choice; therefore, they are subjective and cannot be
objectively proven or logically attacked.
Example:
Sampaguita are the most beautiful and most fragrant of all flowers.
