What is a fact?
A fact is something that is true. The usual test for a statement of fact is verifiability, that is whether it can be demonstrated to correspond to experience. Standard reference works are often used to check facts.
What is an opinion?
An opinion is a judgment, viewpoint, or statement that is not conclusive, rather than facts, which are true statements.
