Addition 1 - Simplified definition of Contextualization (sociolinguistics): Source(s) 2 and 5 [DONE]

More simply, contextualization - in relation to society's use of language - can give clues to who is talking, what is their relationship is, where the conversation is occurring, and much more. These clues can be drawn from how the language is being used, what type of language is being used (formal versus informal), and the participants tone of voice.

Contextualization cues are both verbal and non-verbal signs that language speakers use and language listen hear that give context into relationships, the situation, and the environment of the conversation. At its simplest, contextualization cues how contextualization to happen.

Impact of Contextualization
Contextualization has the overarching benefit of granting people the ability to understand. Zana Mahmood Hassan details the usefulness of contextualization in his paper, "Language Contextualization and Culture." Contextualization in sociolinguistics can allow those learning a language to begin to understand the culture by the cues found in the nuances of the language (Hassan 2014). Generalized, Hassan's findings reveal that language and context go hand in hand. Scholars have said that it is important to include culture studies into language studies because it aids in students' learning. the informational and situational context that culture provides helps language "make sense"; culture is a contextualization cue (Hassan 2014). In all, contextualization, when implemented properly, can make learning a language easier. Ducharme and Bernard make a similar argument in their article. They say that when students are given the tools and space to utilize contextualization, they are better able to learn a second language (Ducharme and Bernard 2001). Contextualization does not only ease everyday understand of language and language interactions, but it also aids in language learning and comprehension in an academic setting.

The first article you listed here isn't about linguistics but about evolutionary anthropology. The existing page has some good citations from John Gumperz -- one thing you could do is use a citation index to see who's citing those papers and what they're doing with this theory. djg (talk) 03:51, 12 February 2019 (UTC)
