Vocabulary Strategy (p. 264) Context Clues (Multiple Meaning Words) Some words have more than one meaning. Use words and sentences around the word with multiple meanings to figure out which meaning the author is using. When you are puzzled by a multiple-meaning word, read the words and sentences around it to get the context for the word. Then think about the different meanings the word has. For example, direct can mean “to manage,” “to command,” and “to show the way.” Reread the sentence, replacing the word with one of the meanings. If this meaning does not work, try another one. As you read “Heroes and Dragons,” use the context and your knowledge of the word to decide which meaning a multiple-meaning word has. For example, does permit mean “to allow” or does it mean “a license”?
