A menu is used in contrast to a command line interface where instructions to the computer are given in the form of commands (or verbs).
A context menu is a menu in which the choices presented to the operator are automatically modified according to the current context in which the operator is working.

Menus are very convenient for beginners because they show what commands are available and make experimentating with a new program easy, often reducing the need for user documentation.
There are many different ways of presenting menus but the most common are the menu bar (with pull-down menus) and the context-sensitive menu.
The term "menu" tends to be reserved for a list of actions or global options, whereas a "list box" or other graphical widget might present any kind of choice.
