00I was looking at some posts and have been wondering if I can make a switch of the phrase "such a context" with "such context" w/o substantially imparing the context. Thanks.02br

00How about this?02br

00I think the parties involved have set the contextual stage regarding what context they are talking about and interchanging the phrases will not alter the overall meaning in any substantial measure, I think. I tthought about this twice as you have realized.0-

0 I believe it should be always "in such a context" or "in such contexts". Uncountable "context" is used in idiomatric collocations like "take/quote something out of context" or "phrases/words (used) in context"02br
