RoSE Context (n): the weaving together of words and sentences from the Latin verb contexere, "to weave together"

RoSE What does it mean for RoSE that some data may not be "woven" into other pieces of data? What does it mean for some data to not "relate" to other pieces of data?

RoSE "Although the author, a friend of D.H. Lawrence, published her stories in many major U.S. magazines, this is the first time her English-language fiction has been published in one book."
