Context
Background details are needed to fully understand the context of a situation or circumstance. Understanding context helps you to:
- Choose the correct tone
- Choose whether to use specialist vocabulary or not
If there is a shared knowledge of a subject between two speakers, technical vocabulary can be used.
For example:
If two scientists are talking to each other about a specialist topic, they will most likely use scientific words they both understand, meaning they could have a more detailed conversation
However, if a scientist is talking to a non-scientist, the scientist will have to use simpler language so the listener can understand.
