objection
A formal or informal objection, doubt, or counterargument against a proposal, statement, or measure. Objections are often raised in legal or formal discussions.
Haben Sie Einwendungen gegen den vorgeschlagenen Plan?
Do you have any objections to the proposed plan?
'Die Einwendung' (objection) belongs to the verb 'einwenden' (to object). If you know the verb, you can more easily work out the meaning of the noun. Both words are often used in formal contexts.
Der Anwalt wird morgen seine Einwendungen vor Gericht darlegen.
The lawyer will present his objections in court tomorrow.
A very common and formal combination is 'Einwendungen erheben' (to raise objections). The objection is always directed 'gegen' (against) something, which takes the accusative.
Die Bürgerinitiative erhebt Einwendungen gegen das Bauprojekt.
The citizens' initiative is raising objections against the construction project.
This word belongs to written language and is used mainly in formal, legal, or administrative contexts. It often sounds more official than a simple objection.
Bitte reichen Sie Ihre Einwendungen schriftlich bis zum Monatsende ein.
Please submit your objections in writing by the end of the month.
doubt
'der Zweifel' and 'die Einwendung' can both show that you do not simply accept something. 'Zweifel' is more of an inner thought or a feeling of uncertainty. 'Einwendung' is an expressed objection or counterargument against a proposal, statement, or measure. The word often sounds somewhat more formal, but it can also be used in discussions. So you can have doubts and turn them into an 'Einwendung' if you say those doubts out loud.
