Give me examples of "Opinions"

Question

Could you please help me and give me examples of each of what's listed!

I am trying to understand the difference.

1. The judgment that seems probable to the speaker
2. The belief held with confidence but not substantiated by proof
3. Statement or claim about what is considered to be true
4. Judgment formed by an expert
5. Prevailing sentiment
6. Formal judgment from a legal hearing
7. Evaluations

Answer 1

As I understood this question, here are some examples:

1. The judgment that seems probable to the speaker: A lawyer working for the defendant tells him that he will probably be acquitted.
2. The belief held with confidence but not substantiated by proof: A juror who believes in the defendant's innocence solely because "she seems like a sweet girl who was in the wrong place at the wrong time."
3. Statement or claim about what is considered to be true: A lawyer who claims, "We all know that such a small person couldn't have carried all the cargo he's accused of stealing."
4. Judgment formed by an expert: An anesthesiologist who claims that the amount of anesthetic administered to a victim was far too high, and that any trained doctor would know the amount was dangerous. She is able to provide evidence of this because of her training, so she assumes the doctor in question is guilty of medical malpractice.
5. Prevailing sentiment: A jury who saw the defendant with a bandage on his arm and assumes the injury was the one that left his DNA on the crime scene. They might all collectively assume the defendant's guilt, although they might not necessarily be right. Basically, the court of public opinion.
6. Formal judgment from a legal hearing: The verdict; "guilty" or "not guilty." This is the thing the judge says at the end of the hearing, which determines sentencing.
7. Evaluations: A psychologist who interviewed the victim, who makes the assertion that his encounter with the defendant was traumatic or otherwise damaging.

Answer 2

It seems to me you are dealing with legal terminology here, where you are expected to differentiate fact from opinion.

1. The judgment refers to a court ruling. The speaker is concluding that a certain ruling is likely. That is the speaker's opinion.
2. A belief not substantiated or supported by fact is an opinion.
3. A claim based on a verifiable fact can be considered true as it is based on a fact.
4. A judgment by an expert is the expert's opinion.
5. The prevailing sentiment is a generally held opinion, which is not necessarily true because it could be based on bias.
6. A formal Judgment is a judge's opinion based on the facts available. A formal judgment can be overturned.
7. An evaluation of a person is done by someone who has knowledge in a certain area; an evaluation is the knowledgeable person's opinion.
