A definition context clue provides a direct explanation or description of an unfamiliar word within the sentence or passage. This type of clue helps readers understand the meaning of the word based on how it is used in the text.
Context clues are hints or information provided within a sentence or passage that help readers understand the meaning of unfamiliar words or phrases. These clues can include synonyms, antonyms, definitions, examples, or explanations that help to clarify the meaning of the word or phrase. By using context clues, readers can make educated guesses about the meaning of unfamiliar words without needing to look them up in a dictionary.
One way is to look up the word in a dictionary for its definition. Another way is to try to understand the word based on how it is used in context within a sentence or passage. You can also try breaking down the word into its root or base components to infer its meaning.
There are several types of context clues that can help readers understand the meaning of unfamiliar words, including definition or explanation clues (when the meaning of the word is directly stated), synonym or restatement clues (when a similar word or phrase is used), contrast or antonym clues (when the opposite meaning is given), and example or illustration clues (when specific examples are provided).

It's called context. If you read "The captain looked over the bow as the salt spray washed over him." the context suggests that he is on a sailing ship. But you don't know the word "bow" so you look it up. "A floppy loopy knot often tied in a ribbon" is one definition, but was the captain looking at a floppy loopy knot? Don't think so. Try again: "A bent piece of wood with a cord for shooting arrows" Was that what the captain was looking over? Hmm. How about "The front part of a ship"? The context tells you that this is the right definition.
