Question

Words are slippery customers. The full meaning of a word does not appear until it is placed in its context. . . . And even then the meaning will depend upon the listener, upon the speaker, upon their entire experience of the language, upon their knowledge of one another, and upon the whole situation.

Answer 1

I don't know if we are supposed to say if this statement is true or fault because you didn't say, but, if this is the case, I would say that this statement is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

All the words have their meaning, sometimes they even have more than one, but you won't realize which is the exact meaning until you put that word in context. There are even literary devices that use some words to describe others, without using its literal meaning. Also, we will understand the words according to our personal background, our life experiences and our personal situations. As you know, we are our experiences, our history, and have been raised in a specific context, and that will modify our perception of the words that we are reading, although they have their established meanings.
