I think at this point in my life when the terms objective and subjective are used in a conversation I just agree to the words without having a full understanding of what was said. Can you eli5 on how to use objective vs subjective?
In: Other
In the sentence: “I play football”, the subject is “I” and the object is football.
When something is subjective, the subject is the main point of the sentence (“I think the Buccaneers are the best team” is more about your, the subject’s, opinion).
When something is objective, the object is the main point (“the winners of the super bowl were the Buccaneers” focusses on the fact of the Buccaneers winning).
Subjective is normally an opinion and can change depending on the subject (whoever is speaking) and objective is normally factual (focussing on the object), which doesn’t depend on who is speaking.
