Context clues are hints that an author gives to help define a difficult or unusual word. The clue may appear within the same sentence as the word to which it refers, or it may follow in a preceding sentence. Because most of one’s vocabulary is gained through reading, it is important that you be able to recognize and take advantage of context clues.

There are at least four kinds of context clues that are quite common: 1) a synonym (or repeat context clue) which appears in that sentence; 2) anantonym (or contrast context clue) that has the opposite meaning, which can reveal the meaning of an unknown term; 3) an explanation for an unknown word is given (adefinition context clue) within the sentence or in the sentence immediately preceding; and 4) specific examples (an example context clue) used to define the term.

There may also be word-part context clues in which a common prefix, suffix, or root will suggest at least part of the meaning of a word. A general sense context clue lets the reader puzzle out a word meaning from whatever information is available – and this is the most common kind of context clue. Others describe context clues in three ways: 1) semantic or meaning clues, e.g., When reading a story about cats, good readers develop the expectation that it will contain words associated with cats, such as “tail,” “purr,” “scratch,” and “whiskers”; 2) syntactic or word order clues where the order of the words in a sentence can indicate that a missing word must be (for example, a verb); and 3) picture clues where illustrations help with the identification of a word.

night time routine can someone write me a 6 sentence paragraph about a night time routine to do. i need it bye 1 pm
mina [271]
(i’m assuming it’s supposed to be in first person, if it’s not you can just change the pov) To start my night time routine, I jump in the shower to rinse off after a long day. after that i get dressed into my pajamas for the night, usually an old t-shirt and a pair of sweatpants. after I get dressed i brush through my hair to get any tangled out, and head to the bathroom to brush my teeth. after flossing and gargling mouthwash, i go back to my room and double check to make sure i’ve done all of my homework that is due tomorrow. if i’m all caught up on my schoolwork, i go on my phone for a little bit, either scrolling through social media or texting friends. around eleven, i close my phone for the night and settle into bed, trying to get as much sleep as i can before my 6am alarm goes off.

hope this helps!
