What is "linguistic context"?
Linguistic context refers to the surrounding words, phrases, or sentences that help clarify the meaning of a particular word or expression in communication. It includes the immediate linguistic environment, such as the sentence in which a word appears, as well as broader aspects like the conversation topic or cultural background. For example, the word “bank” can mean a financial institution or the side of a river, and understanding its meaning depends on the context in which it is used. By providing additional information, linguistic context allows speakers and listeners to interpret language more accurately, enhancing comprehension and effective communication.
