Context clues are using the words around an unknown word to try and get some <u>clues</u> about it (definition, pronunciation).

Answer:

Context clues

Explanation:

When we are reading and find an unusual or unknown word within a text, we can use the surrounding information to help comprehend the meaning of that word, as well as its pronunciation, when we do this, we are using the context clues. There are many types of context clues, for example, to find out the meaning of a word, we can look for synonyms within the sentence or the text that refers to that unknown word, for antonym that may reveal us the meaning of the word by contrast, or for examples related to that word.

In the following example, we can look for synonyms as a context clue to have an idea of what "clandestine" means:

<em>No one will ever discover what they would call "a </em><u><em>clandestine</em></u><em> place", I don't think neither of us would open their mouth after all that we have gone through in here, only the four of us, in our own little </em><u><em>secret</em></u><em> home.</em>

Task
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

Hello Incandescent Soap,

I purchased your Apple Cinnamon body wash about a month ago, and I recieved a Plum Raisin. I've come to know that you are no longer selling the Apple Cinnamon scent, and that is the only kind that I would like to have purchased, so I am looking to get a refund for the body wash you sent me. I know that you have a 90-day return policy, but only if the bottle is unopened, and I am asking you to make an exception for my purchase because the label gave me false information. You have labeled the bottle Apple Cinnamon, which is not only misleading, but an outright lie because the actual scent of the body wash was Plum Raisin. Even though you might say that the bottle was opened and I can't get a refund for that, I think that it is unfair of you to expect me to be satisfied with a body wash of the wrong scent. You didn't even think to contact me when you took Apple Cinnamon off your listing when I had ordered it, and you took a further step by hiding the label, I know that it is only acceptable if I get my money back for this product.

Thank you,

(Your name)
