The context of culture defines the potential, the range of possibilities that are open. The actual choice among these possibilities takes place within a given context of situation.
- Halliday (1973), Pag. 49

[...] The total range of meanings that is embodied in and realized through the language system is determined by the context of culture–-in other words by the social structure.
- Halliday (1973), Pag. 64
