Can you help me?! Explain whether the statement is fact or opinion and why. Word choice is the most important tool a writer has available. I'm not sure.

This is probably an opinion. Yes, it is really important, but heck, what if you chose your words perfectly but mixed all the sentences up so it made no sense at all? I don't know but I think it is most likely opinion.

thanks

"Word choice is the most important tool a writer has available." This statement is an opinion because there are no statistics or data that prove that "word choice" is "the most important." Since there are no facts defending this statement, anyone can refute it and say, "Well, I think that imagination is the most important tool a writer has."

Everyone feels differently on what could be the most important tool (opinion). If there was actually one correct answer, then it would be a fact, but since there isn't everyone only has their own opinion on the subject.
