The Opening is just the beginning stage of the game. White often has a slight advantage at the beginning, so we call most of his openings attacks and most of Black's replies defenses.

When you are talking about Opening, you are referring to Whites first couples moves. Reference to defense is Blacks first few moves. Attack means that you have the advantage & trying to use it. Thanks
