Explain which context clues in the paragraph helped you determine the word’s correct meaning. 1. adopt The legend of Arthur has
captured the imagination of writers since at least 1136, with the appearance of Geoffrey of Monmouth’s History of the Kings of Britain. From this text, later writers would adopt some of the essential elements of Arthurian lore: Merlin, Excalibur, and Arthur’s final repose at Avalon. A few decades later, the French poet Chrétien de Troyes introduced the character of Launcelot to the growing body of Arthurian literature. Le Morte d’Arthur (1469), one of the earliest books printed in English, would eventually become the ultimate source for writers of Arthurian literature.
The context clues allowed me to understand that the word "adopt" had the meaning of "use". This conclusion can be drawn, because the context shows that several authors were inspired by the work "The legend of Arthur" to create their stories. In this way, we can contextualize that these inspirations caused these authors to use original terms from "The legend of Arthur" in the works they wrote, thus allowing them to "adopt" these terms, that is, they used terms that had not been generated by they.
