Subjective claims are one’s personal feelings, preference and judgment. It means that it cannot be universal truth.
My friends and I eat out a lot, especially during the weekends. As much as we like to sit down at a restaurant to enjoy our meal, we tend to get fast food and bring it over to someone’s house and chow down there. Last weekend we decided that we wanted to get burgers and a bunch of us started to throw ideas out. I said I wanted In-N-Out because the burgers tasted better. While on the other hand my friend Daniel said that In-N-Out doesn’t taste that good.
Objective claims are facts. It means that the claims have concrete truth behind them.
An example of this might be a volleyball game. This week I attended a high school volleyball game. The home team won and the away team lost. This is an objective game because the scoreboard pointed out that the home team had more points than the away team.
Hi there! :)
ReplyDeleteI really liked the examples that you used to explain what a subjective and objective claim was. It was simple, and easy to understand.
For subjective, you made it clear that you wanted In-N-Out, while your friend didn’t. That’s pretty odd that your friend doesn’t like In-N-Out burgers. They’re deliciously amazing. :P
I’ll admit, explaining that volleyball is an objective game actually made me understand more on what an objective claim is. I don’t know why, but I completely forgot about sport matches and their main goals. (Sees how much I pay attention to sports. haha)
I think the only suggestion I can give you is to elaborate on your definitions that you used for them. Don’t get me wrong. The definition that you provided was fine, but I feel that there can be more added to it to make it even more understandable.
All in all, good job! :D
