Context Clues

Definition: Context clues are words or phrases in a sentence that help the reader figure out the meaning of an unknown word. Antonyms, synonyms, stated examples, contrasts and restatements all function as context clues.
Example: There was the equalitarian phase, which is what is happening in the book, where boys and girls are the same.
