e categorizes circumstancesinto two groups:context of situation and context of culture.The cultural backgroundthat underlies all cultural actions is implied by the context of culture.Context ofsituation is the environment in which speech occurs.Malinowski's theory of contextplaces great emphasis on the relationship between the meaning of language and thecontext in which it occurs.His theory laid the cornerstone of the register theory.Henot only laid emphasis on the relationship between language function and languagemeaning and the relationship between society and culture but also the functions ofsituational context and culture context,which breaks with the traditional ontologicalmonism of language studies that only studies language itself(Gao,2015).However,Malinowski,did not explicitly describe the relationship between the meaning of language and the context in which it happens because he was only interested inlanguage in particular contexts.
