    It quite literally is. All encoding of information is definitionally contextual, language (formal or not) is no exception. This doesn’t change because the language is spoken.

            Lmfao buddy, so what does it say then? Because I’m getting the feeling you’re not exactly familiar with anything to do with linguistic theory, and it sure would be easy and satisfying to disabuse me of that notion. Look at me, I’m right here, calling your bluff while taking a biiiiiig ol’ sip of my coffee. Make me eat my tasty (and context dependent) words, and pull a comedy spit-take in the process! The power is yours, the ball is in your court, dazzle us oh knower-of-truths!

              You’re ranting like a crazy person. Calm down.

              If if this is how you react when people tell you, you’re wrong, then I’ve no interest in continuing this conversation.

              Go touch grass. Blocked.
