2. WHAT IS CONTEXT
CONTEXT = CONTEXTUAL
INFORMATION
CONTEXT is the setting of a word or
event. And it is thus a world
filled with people producing
utterances : people who have
social, cultural, and personal
identities, knowledge, beliefs,
goal and wants and to interact
with one another in various
socially and culturally defined
situations.

3. Different approaches to
context
Speech act theory and pragmatics view
context primarily as “knowledge”
Interactional sociolinguistics and the
ethnography of communication view
context as “knowledge” and “situation”
Variation analysis views context as
“situation” and “text”
Conversation analysis focuses on the
relationship among “knowledge”,
“situation” and “text”

4. WHAT IS TEXT
TEXT = TEXTUAL INFORMATION
TEXT is the linguistic content : the
stable semantic meanings of
words, expressions, and
sentences, but not the
inferences available to hearers
depending upon the contexts in
which words, expressions, and
sentences are used.
