Final answer:

Definition, elaborating details, and antonym context clues help understand unfamiliar words by defining, describing, and contrasting meanings.


Explanation:

Definition clues offer information about the function, features, or appearance of an unfamiliar word by providing a definition within the sentence or paragraph. For instance, 'The hungry campers started to devour the pizzas after having been in the wilderness for the past week, eagerly eating every crumb.'

Elaborating Details use descriptive information to suggest the meaning of the unknown word, like 'The young man in the photo had a striking and gaunt appearance.'

Antonym clues present words or phrases that have the opposite meaning of the unfamiliar word, aiding in understanding through contrast, such as 'even though she appears indefatigable during the workday, she is generally exhausted by 6pm.'
