Concurring is that of agreeing; dissenting is that of disagreeing. And I learnt this in 30 seconds off Google, using 'define:...' -- google it first. -.-
When the supreme court rules on a case how many opinions might be written to explain the verdict?
There is no mandated limit; however, the practical limit would be nine -- one for each member of the Court. Only one opinion may be submitted as the official opinion of the Court; however, each justice is free to write a dissenting or concurring (or dissenting in part and concurring in part) opinion as part of the legal record. While concurring and dissenting opinions are unenforceable, they may be cited as precedent in future cases and sometimes become more influential than the original opinion of the Court.

Majority, Concurring, Dissenting, and Per Curiam
What do one or more justices write when they disagree with the majority?
A Justice may write a dissenting opinion if he or she votes against the majority and wants to record his or her legal reasoning for consideration in future cases. Dissenting opinions, although written in opposition to the majority, or Court Opinion, may be cited as precedents in future litigation. An opinion that agrees with the decision in the case (although not necessarily the reasoning) is called a concurringopinion.For more information on opinions of the Court, see Related Questions, below.
What are descending opinions and concurring opinions?
Descending opinions, often referred to as dissenting opinions, are written by one or more judges who disagree with the majority's decision in a court case, providing their reasoning for the disagreement. Concurring opinions, on the other hand, are written by judges who agree with the majority's outcome but have different reasoning or additional points to emphasize. Both types of opinions serve to clarify legal reasoning and can influence future cases or legal interpretations.
Do supreme court justices write their own concurring and dissenting opinions or do their clerks do it for them?
It is my understanding that Justice John Paul Stevens writes the first draft of all of his opinions, but that the others rely on assistance from their law clerks to varying degrees. There is probably no definitive answer to this question.
