The British Perspective on Context
The British people use an interesting mix of high and low context when they communicate.
On one hand the eloquent British language is a high context language with its long history and rich use of sayings. And yet on the other hand the British communication style is low context in the way there is a strong preference for detailed and precise information.
In written communication the British tend to err on the side of caution by often providing too much information rather than too little.
Their preferred style of writing is to provide the readers with first and overview of what is to come and then later all the details and specifics. When communicating verbally, much of the same style is observed.
