Answer:

The surrounding words are called context clues.

Step-by-step explanation:

Context clues are hints to help define a difficult or unusual word. The clue can appear in the same sentence or it may follow in the next sentence. If you ever don't understand a word, you should look for context clues that will help you understand the meaning of the word.
