AnswerClick to flip back
A
Meaning is determined by the context in which a word is used.
💡 Explanation:

Wittgenstein argued that the meaning of a word is not something that is fixed and unchanging, but rather something that is determined by the context in which it is used. This means that the same word can have different meanings in different contexts.
