In literature, A claim is a statement that asserts something to be true. A claim can either be factual or a judgment. Claims can work on their own or in conjunction with other claims to form a larger argument. The word claim comes from the latin word clamare, which means "to cry out, shout"

the claim is the writers side of the argument. it is what they are arguing about. similar to a thesis statement in an informative text.
