A1b: Most people in a literate society know a great deal in common. It’s this commonly shared knowledge that allows us to communicate.

A1: Writers/speakers assume certain knowledge on the part of their audience. Otherwise the process of communicating is too cumbersome.

Q3: What's the relationship between building background knowledge and vocabulary?
#njed
ckschools
Apr 25 @ 8:23 PM EDT
A1: Language represents knowledge. It is the way we communicate about a specific topic.
#NJed
ckschools
Apr 25 @ 8:24 PM EDT
A2: Topics of knowledge have domain-specific vocabulary. This unique vocabulary represents the knowledge encompassed by the domain.
