Answer:

Context Clues

Step-by-step explanation:

Context clues are words and/or phrases that can provide hints about the meaning of a word. They help readers to infer the meaning of a word or phrase that is part of the same sentence or paragraph, but that is unknown. These hints may be found before the unknown word or after it.
