A context clue is something that gives you a hint to what a word means for example "Writing a 10-page research project is an onerous task" so what would the meaning of onerous be? the obvious meaning of onerous would be difficult so that is how you use context clues.

context clues are hints that the author gives you in the story. Sometimes they help define difficult words by giving hints in the text.
