Discuss how to use context clues as a strategy to understand unfamiliar vocabulary words.

Context clues are details that help a reader understand later parts of a passage or sentence.

Ex. The corgi, who had been rummaging in the garbage, smelled nasty.

If we are trying to find out what the word "nasty" means, the context clue in this sentence is "rummaging in the garbage". Garbage has a bad smell to it, a very unpleasant smell. Therefore nasty means unpleasant.

I hope my example helped you! ;)

Kafkasque refers to what?
sineoko [7]
<span>Kafkasque is the expresion used to name the specific atmosphere in the works of Czech writer Franc Kafka. His novels and stories were so original and fresh, that literary critics and theoretics invented this new word, which is later used to describe the situations in fiction or even in reality which are similarly absurd, surreal and strange like those in Kafka's books. The main topics of his work were alienation, existential anxiety and guilt. His characters are isolated individuals dealing with bizare and surreal problems and absurd and incomprehensible social-bureaucratic powers. Kafkas most important works are: story "The Metamorphosis" and novels "The Trial" and "The Castle".</span>

how would you describe king arthur as a king?locate a part in the story that will support your answer
Gnom [1K]
There are many legends and stories so it is unknown to which one are you referring to. However, he is usually described as a just king who values everyone as equals, hence the myth of the round table. In another myth, he supported Sir Gawain's almost certain death because it was an honorable thing to do and if he hadn't done it he would be a liar. He always valued honor, truth, justice, and anything positive like that.
