› Coco Martin has been starring in the soap opera “Probinsyano” for
quite a long time already. It is the longest running ever teleserye in
the country.

Unsupported opinions: they are statements about what
a speaker happens to believe. They can be true/false,
rational/irrational but if they are not used to support
another statement then they are not arguments.
› The Philippine Azkals are the best football team in Asia. They
have players with experience in Europe. Coach Scott Cooper
has coached many teams in different countries over his
career.
If the Philippines adopt a parliamentary government,
then we will not elect a president anymore.
Conditional statement: when there is no claim that one
statement is true because of the other statement. It
usually contains the if-then relationship.
