Dauntless- adj.- showing fearlessness and determination. Insinuation- n.- an unpleasant hint or suggestion of something bad. Pall- n.- a cloth spread over a coffin, hearse, or tomb.

Subjective vs. Objective Subjective information is one person's opinion. In a newspaper, the editorial section is the place for subjectivity. It can be based on fact, but it is one person's interpretation of that fact. In this way, subjective information is also analytical. Objective information reviews many points of view. It is intended to be unbiased. News reporters are supposed to be objective and report the facts of an event. Encyclopedias and other reference materials provide objective information.

Nonfiction Film Viewing Guide What Do You See (primary or archival footage, still images, the filmmaker)?: What Do You Hear (dialogue, narration, diegetic and non- diegetic sound)?: What Do You Read (subtitles, graphics, labels, etc.)?: How Is It Put Together (editing sequence, transition devices, etc.)?: What Is The Effect (what is the theme/message of the video, what “truth” does it convey)?:

Writing Prompt Rewrite your paragraph to transform it from objective to subjective or vice versa. Be sure to: – Include or remove details that express an opinion rather than merely record. – Start with a topic sentence that indicates appropriate point of view. – Select diction that denotes or connotes appropriately.
