event, of some kind. Context is "a frame that surrounds the event and provides resources for its appropriate interpretation". It is thus a relative concept, only definable with respect to some focal event within a frame, not independently of that frame.

Since much contemporary linguistics takes texts, discourses, or conversations as the object of analysis, the modern study of verbal context takes place in terms of the analysis of discourse structures and their mutual relationships, for instance the 146:, one of the three classes of signs comprising Peirce's second trichotomy.

Communicative systems presuppose contexts that are structured in terms of particular physical and communicative dimensions, for instance time, location, and communicative role.

The basic assumption here is that language users adapt the properties of their language use (such as intonation, lexical choice, syntax, and other aspects of 225: 126:) to the current communicative situation. In this sense, language use or discourse may be called more or less 'appropriate' in a given context. 313: 351:
