- Where you are, the rime of day, the culture around you, and the societal role you're playing can all affect how your message is received when communicating.

Context is so important to consider when communicating. I can definitely relate to not being there mentally at a late meeting and that time can have a big impact on one's ability to receive information.
Context for communication is so important, and I never fully realized it until this video
Me too
Thank you sir..You r brilliant!😇God bless you 😊
While in Switzerland, my German-speaking Students asked me if the English Language had a “Proper Form” for addressing elders, teachers, adults, etc.
I told them that we try to avoid slang or using phrases like “yo, dude I was totes LOLing at your last DM. Please spill the tea,” when speaking to a person of possible importance. Understanding Cultural Context, like the video stated, may also be important while traveling and/or communicating with others from a different culture.
That;s an awesome example of cultural context!
Great teaching !
Thanks!!
I agree how u helping me to understand this topic it will helpful for me in my career
It's crazy to me that I already knew all of this information, but seeing it in this different light changes my whole perspective of communication and how its not easy to convey a message perfectly in the way you desire. I thought it was interesting that a group of adults were able to be like, "Hey this meeting time sucks, I wanna go home". I could never imagine doing that at my work. It's also interesting just learning about different work environments as well.
One thing you'll hear me say a lot is "You already know everything we're going to talk about. My job is to help you understand what you already know."
Knowing your context is sooo important. There is a right time and a right place for everything as well as a right way to convey your message. Thanks!
These videos make learning more enjoyable!
Understand context, noise of environment, receiver of the message
Cultural context is definitely noticed when you go out of the country. For example I went to Mexico and everyone ate with their hands at the table, I ate with fork and spoon 🍴 they looked at me strange but that’s just what I was used to since growing up in the USA it’s usually not common for people to eat with their hands at the table 😂(unless it’s pizza 🍕)
Excellent example! And in India, they eat curry with their hands from banana leaves. Made for a great but confusing lunch!
Context is incredibly important in communication
Thank you so much. This was very helpful!
Thanks!
I guess the three day weekend example makes sense: people would be focused on that rather than the meeting. Perhaps a better time would be maybe Wednesday the week after, or Monday two weeks after.
Yeah I agree! Selecting a different time for the meeting would be better than rushing the meeting where no one is paying would be better
Definitely agree.. no one wants to sit in meeting at the end of there day when there about to be off to a three day wkend. I know I wouldn’t be focused on the material. I would be thinking about what I still need to pack.
In your job you make the rules we follow your job are rules.
If I ever accidentally slurp my food (my husband hates it), I will tell him it's a compliment to the chef in Japan
I'm with him.Drives me up the wall!
LOVE to communicate. Do it all tha time. Love u
So a video on the top 10 video games of all time please
I found this very interesting and helpful! Our context really does play a huge role in how we communicate
I feel like it is both the most important yet most invisible aspect of communication!
I've learned from this episode just how important context is when communicating!
I agree! It makes it way easier to understand people
I am not sure if what I have in mind is in context with what this video is saying.
But I get the feeling that, at times, I am not able to understand a question/argument properly. For example, the doctor asks me "how are you feeling?". I thought that he asked me how I feel while using a particular long-term medicine I was prescribed to and how has the medicine affected me. So I gave him examples of certain effects that I think I have gone through. Apparently, according to my mum, that wasn't what he meant to tell me and I understood wrong. And I still don't know what is it that I am doing wrong.
Am I being out of context here? I'm sorry if I have but I don't know how to tackle such a manner.
Yes, context definitely plays a part in this example, as to our filters as described in the first video in this series. We all have different ideas if what words and phrases mean. As a result, we can say the same thing and mean something completely different. Very tricky stuff!
@@NutshellBrainery good to know! Thank God I am not crazy 😂 can you give me the link/name for the first video please? Thanks in advance 👍🏻
@@TheMusicPinkLover91 Here you go! th-cam.com/video/r2aGDXOCOBI/w-d-xo.html
Which of the following describes public communication?
A. It makes use of channels such as newspapers and the Internet.
B. Its audience can be in different places.
C. It is done face-to-face.
D. It provides opportunities for the participants to give immediate feedback.
E) All of the above!
@@NutshellBrainery there is no all of the above... only one of these choices. That is why I got confused
Context is very important
Thanks a lot!! Good and straight to the point with examples.
Glad to hear it!
Is saying something at the wrong time related to context? I'm a socially awkward person and I'm confused if saying the wrong thing at a horrible time is related to communication context.
You bring up a great point. Socially awkward is a part of social context, yet another dimension to an already complex environment.
@@NutshellBrainery 😯😯 thanks for clearing up my confusion! Also, I enjoyed your video! Learned a lot about the different types of context in communication! Thank you! ❤️❤️
great info thank you!
Helped alot. Thanks from pakistan.
Thanks! I've had some great students from Pakistan! 🇵🇰
CRAZY GOOD VIDEO!! WAY TO GO
Context is also important to avoid undeserved problems.. 🙄
Good point!
I've certainly witnessed some examples of poor context in conjunction to giving feedback. This helped demonstrate why that changes things.
This video reminded me when I almost yelled on a bus (it came out as a shriek when I remembered where I was half a second later). I also semi-pumped my fist because my favorite soccer team scored, so it all came out weird. To be fair, it was an important match, but I did probably end up looking like the “crazy bus person” to those around me. It would have definitely be more justified if I had be sitting atop some bleachers. Oh well, totally worth it to see that goal! 😄
Wao I feel so educated
Hello sir can you make a video of Conversation Analysis
That's a good idea! I'll have to look into that.
@@NutshellBrainery okay sir thank you!
The media is especially bad about manipulating context to fit that media outlet's slant. It's why it is so important to always try to find the source and not just trust what the media is telling you.
Cultural context is the one that I'm most familiar with...I'm from Chile and things that are not OK to do over there are totally fine here...great video...helped me understand it better...
You understand it well, then!
Thank you sir!
I will be more mindful of the context when I am communicating. Thank you!
I really enjoyed how you talked about the dates when meeting and how important physical context is, very interesting
You get most views from TCSers .
What's a TCSer? Regardless, I'm grateful!
I found it funny that you used the example of slurping noodles as an example of cultural context. I work with a guy of Japanese descent, and he has been talking about taking me and another coworker to a noodle restaurant for lunch and he told us that we needed to slurp our noodles. Who would have thought that something like slurping could be so important?
Thank you. I really like your videos. I'm learning English so this is really helpful!
Thanks for reinforcing this. It's important to know you're audience when communicating.
Context is extremely important. you should be aware of the context all the time especially when sending messages.
All the examples are very helpful. Context is important when receiving and sending messages
Cultural contexts is so important in communication. Its very important to understand others culture so that we can communicate effectively.
I just loved the examples that you were giving. Thumps up 👍
Interesting video and comments, this helps bring to light that it is important to watch how we are communicating when it comes to who we are speaking to or with.
I think a lot of the times I hold back on saying things due to lack of confidence, but knowing the context can really help!
Great
Good
Thank you, this was of great help.!!!
Thank you!! This video was so helpful
One of the best explanations on the topic of 'context.' Thank you for sharing your perception.
Thank you! It can be a tricky concept!
Thank you so much! This is so informative :)
My landlord is not from this country and personal distance is not really an issue for them. It makes discussing items of business in person more difficult because I am feeling nervous or uncomfortable without having what I consider my personal space. In her culture that is perfectly normal, but it's a culture shock to me!
We're going to talk about cross-cultural comms in these lectures. You'll understand a great deal if what we discuss!
I think that context is extremelly importan in communication. I can confirm it because I am from Chile and now I am living in the United States and some things here are very different to Chile. The culture affects a lot on it. For example in Chile every time that you meet with a person you kiss him/her in the cheek. Here in the United States I have never done that because nobody do it.
Excellent example! Cultural context means a lot!
I really liked learning about the different types of communication context from this video. I like the cultural context example of slurping vs. not slurping your food. That's also not something I knew about the Japanese culture. It's fun to learn things like that. I'll be sure to slurp my noodles when I go there to visit one day!
I lives there for two years ans yep, they love their noodles--the best in the world!
I now know how to pay attention to “context” better.
Hey thank you for this video. Context is so important to your audience especially when you are going into business. Knowing your audience will help you be a better businessman and a better communicator with your team and with the people around you.
this episode lets me know a context in communicating is very important. Like, communication and context are a connection, they support each other to create the effective communication.
I took English 1010 last semester and i have to write fiction essay assignment for my my professor. she is my audiences i get nervous but she taught me when i write the context explain it with detail clearly, the audiences who i am sharing the message with can understand and engage with the story i am telling them.
School assignments can be tricky. One one had the professor is ths audience, that's obvious, but they may want you to write for a different audience. So yeah, the A paper may be one that they don't "get" but they see that your audience would.
In South Korea they have a concept known as nunchi which is
more or less the ability to sense another person’s mood. This so you understand
the context in how you should address a person in any given situation.
I love it! We need a word like that!
I often get lost in my own context when trying to elaborate a matter or subject. What I've done in the past was slowing down my communication and avoid misleading information.
Not a bad idea!
I feel like a lot of people develop the skills to know this while they’re young. However reiterating it definitely makes you realize it’s power and importance!
One thing I'm fond of saying is you already know know everything we're going to talk about; my job, as a teacher, is to help you understand what you already know. There are in fact tools we acquire early in life, but learning how to use those tools to great effect, that takes understanding.
I find that context is huge! Especially at work. I loved your example of the meetings at the end of the day. Also when at working in a big office it's important to know the context and not yell and scream at your co workers!
So true. Context is so ubiquitous that it's often invisible, but we need to remember it!
When you made the meeting analogy, I thought of the last class on a Friday before the weekend. No one is ever really paying attention. I can see why a meeting right before a 3 day weekend would cause issues!
Totally!
Great example. Context is very important so that the receiver doesn't get the wrong idea from our message
Good point. The context can affect the meaning of a message a great deal.
thank. you i feel as if ill actually pass my communication studies course...... this is not sarcasim this is relief
Glad you found it helpful!!
so much can effect how we receive a message and to pick the perfect time to give you r message without anything affecting the way we are trying to say it take alot of time and effort
The perfect time, place, culture, and social setting--let alone the combination of these contexts--will never exist. Ergo, learning how to bake them into your considerations when communicating is a real skill!
Understanding cultural context could really go a long way in our society. Very good video!
Its interesting how context is essentially the foundation for good communication
Context is really essential making sure that its clear and the receiver can not miss interpret the information
What a great way to understand context!
This is so awesome!🙌🏻
I stink when communicating
We all do. :) But we can always work on stinking less.
@@NutshellBrainery I got no-one to help me with it
This video is informative, engaging and humourous!!
Thanks! My production quality has increased since this video, but I think my light-hearted humor has decreased. I need to find that again!
awesome video!
The energy that is brought to these videos is what is going to keep me coming back
and it helps you remember the information
Great info!
I never knew there was more context than cultural context!
Very true
Knowing the context is so important when communicating.
And it's a tricky concept to get. In fact, if I were making this video today I'd change a ton because I have a better understanding of context today, and yes, it's so important.
Cool
I have always felt like context was important in sending and receiving messages and this video has great information on the different areas of context.
Yes it is so important
So if wanted to define specifically the term "context" is that correct " context is the circumstances surrounding our communication Or there can be more precise definition?
You're pointed in the right direction. Context is the circumstances which in which we communicate and which then affects the nature of the communication. Contexts influences how we send and receive messages.
I was actually writing process of communication in my notes and a little bit confused what to write about the context.
Your videos helped me a lot and i insist you keep doing this work.
@@naveedakhtar8086 Thank you!
