"Context" is a masculine noun, "contextus." The translation of the phrase above would be "Scientia in contexto est." (Scientia is pronounced "ski-EN-tia"). |

Contextus is fourth declension masculine, declined as follows: contextus - nom. sing. contextus - gen. sing. contextui - dat. sing. contextum - acc. sing. contextu - abl. sing. The preposition "in" requires the ablative. ("in contextu operis dicemus," Tacitus.) Thus, the correct translation is "scientia in contextu est." hlabadie-ga |
