**Deconstructing "Came" in Context**

Alright, the target word is "came," lemma "come." The context is "Some of the most vivid bulletins came over The Well..." Immediately, I'm thinking about the possibilities, running through the common senses of "come." Is it a physical movement, arrival, a consequence, being produced, or something else entirely? "Came" has a lot of nuance!

The "bulletins came over The Well" part is key. My initial thought is it is about *arrival* and *reception*. Could it be about moving towards, arriving at a destination (senses 1 and 2)? Possibly. But then the phrase "came over" throws a wrench in that. It feels more passive.

The phrase reminds me of "news came over the wire" or "news came in." That phrase points to *information being received*. I'm zeroing in on sense 16: "be received," with the synonym "come in." Perfect! Examples include "News came in of the massacre in Rwanda." This feels very solid.

So, is that the right fit? I pause, I consider the other options. Does it make sense to say they were *coming forth* (sense 7) like a scream? No. *Product or result* (sense 5) doesn't work either. I go back to checking the "come in" synonym again.

I'm checking the syntax and considering "bulletins came over The Well". The subject is *bulletins*, not a person. It means "bulletins were received". I evaluate sense 16 and I double-check WordNet, just to make sure.

Yes, it all checks out. The sense key `come%2:38:02::` fits the context perfectly: "be received" with the synonym "come in." "Bulletins came over The Well" is definitely like "News came in" - news or bulletins were received.

I'm confident. The correct sense is definitely sense 16: "be received."

**Analyzing the Sense of "Electronic"**

Okay, the target is the word "electronic", and thankfully, the surface form is identical, so no lemmatization challenges here. The context is this phrase, "electronic underground," which I need to decipher. Clearly, we're not talking about a literal subterranean world of electrons; that's not what the "underground" metaphor implies in this sentence.

Let's look at the candidate senses. Sense 1, "of or relating to electronics; concerned with or using devices that operate on principles governing the behavior of electrons," feels immediately relevant. The example, "electronic devices," is a strong indicator. Then we have sense 2, "of or concerned with electrons," which sounds very specific to the subatomic particle itself.

Thinking about "the electronic underground" I know that it refers to a community of computer users using electronic networks, which aligns perfectly with sense 1. It's about using devices related to electronics. That community would be considered 'underground' in this context, because this was during a period of less prevalent computer networking.

Therefore, sense 1 is the clear winner here.

**Analyzing the Meaning of "Subscribers"**

Okay, so I'm looking at the word "subscribers" in the context of "About two-thirds of the Well's 3,000 subscribers live in the Bay Area." The target lemma is clearly "subscriber," and the surface form is, of course, the plural, "subscribers." The context tells me "The Well" is an electronic bulletin board, which immediately suggests a specific type of subscription.

Now, let's consider the candidate senses. I've got a few options: someone who expresses approval, an endorser; someone who receives and pays for a service or publication; and finally, someone who contributes money. The key here is "The Well" is a service; users don't just express approval; they *use* the service.

The description of the Well, specifically, that it's an electronic bulletin board, strongly suggests that its users are *paying* for access. Therefore, sense number two – "someone who contracts to receive and pay for a service..." – is by far the most appropriate fit. The Well's members contract to receive something from the service, and in return, they pay. So, based on this, sense index 2 is the correct interpretation. This is straightforward; the meaning is clear from the context.

**Analyzing the Usage of "Live"**

Okay, so I'm looking at the word "live" in this sentence: "About two-thirds of the Well's 3,000 subscribers live in the Bay Area." The target lemma and the surface form are the same, which simplifies things a bit. Let's see, what are the possible senses here? I've got:

1.  *inhabit or live in; be an inhabitant of*
2.  *lead a certain kind of life; live in a certain style*
3.  *continue to live through hardship or adversity*
4.  *support oneself*
5.  *have life, be alive*
6.  *have firsthand knowledge of states*
7.  *pursue a positive and satisfying existence*

Now, with "live in the Bay Area," it's pretty clear. This isn't about surviving hardship, having firsthand knowledge, leading a particular lifestyle, or supporting oneself. It's not the sense of being *alive* in the general sense, nor is it pursuing a life in the positive. The phrase "live in" indicates *residence* in a geographic area. So, I'm confident that sense number one, "inhabit or live in; be an inhabitant of," is the correct interpretation here. It's a straightforward case of determining the correct sense based on context.

**Analyzing the Context of "Hours"**

Okay, so the target is "hour," but the form we're seeing is "hours." Immediately, I need to figure out which sense of "hour" is being used here, given the context "The quake knocked The Well out for six hours..." My initial instinct points towards a duration. The key is to map the surface form to the correct lemma sense. The text implies a measurable span of time.

Let's break down the potential meanings: I have to decide which definition of "hour" fits the best.

*   **Sense 1:** *A period of time equal to 1/24th of a day*. The synonyms "hr" and "60 minutes" are a good sign. The example, "the job will take more than an hour," feels similar. This seems promising.
*   **Sense 2:** *Clock time* (as in, "the hour is getting late"). Doesn't seem relevant here.
*   **Sense 3:** *A special and memorable period*. Unlikely to be a fit.
*   **Sense 4:** *Distance measured by time*. No.

Given the context, sense 1 is the obvious choice. The quake knocked the well out for a period of time, namely 6 of those periods. I am confident that the "hours" in the text refers to a duration.

**Analyzing "Came Back Up"**

Okay, the target is "come_up" and the specific surface form is "came" followed by "back up" – that's crucial. The context is "The quake knocked The Well out for six hours, but when it came back up, it teemed with emotional first-hand reports." Right, so "The Well" is a bulletin board system, and the quake took it offline, then it "came back up." Now, I need to pinpoint the correct sense of "come_up." Let's run through the candidate senses: bring forth, result, move toward, surface, originate, move upward, be mentioned, start running/functioning/operating, get something, celestial bodies, and gather money/together.

Given the context of a computer system being offline and then restarting, sense 8 leaps out. It's a perfect fit: "start running, functioning, or operating." The example provided – "the computer came up" – is practically a paraphrase of the sentence in question. No need to overthink this. Sense 8 it is. So, the chosen sense is {"sense_index": 8}.

**Analyzing the Word "Teemed"**

Okay, so the target word is "teem," and the specific form used is "teemed" – that's the surface form to consider. The context is "The quake knocked The Well out for six hours, but when it came back up, it teemed with emotional first-hand reports." Right away, I see two possible senses presented here.

The first, `teem%2:42:00::`, means "be teeming, be abuzz." Synonyms like "pullulate" and "swarm" fit the bill, and examples like "The garden was swarming with bees; The plaza is teeming with undercover policemen" definitely resonate. The second sense, `teem%2:38:00::`, is more about "move in large numbers," such as "pour, swarm, stream, pullulate." The example sentences like "people were pouring out of the theater" showcase that usage.

Considering the context – that "it" (The Well, presumably a bulletin board or online space) "teemed with emotional first-hand reports" after the outage – the second sense, suggesting movement, feels wrong. "Teeming with reports" implies it was *full* of them, overflowing, abuzz with them, just like a garden swarming with bees. Therefore, the first sense – to be abuzz or be teeming – is the definitive match. I'm confident that sense one is correct for this particular usage.

**Analyzing the Nuance of "Emotional" in Context**

Okay, the target word is "emotional," nestled within "emotional first-hand reports" about an earthquake. My initial thought is that the reports themselves are *showing* emotion, obviously, but I need to be precise. There are multiple senses of "emotional," right? Let's see... Sense 1 is about emotion overriding reason, like an "emotional judgment." Sense 2 describes something *possessing* more than usual emotion, like "highly emotional behavior." Sense 3 is about being *related* to emotion, like "emotional health," and Sense 4 refers to a person being excessively affected by emotion.

Given the context of first-hand reports, which are, by their nature, likely to be filled with strong feelings, the word is describing the reports themselves. My gut says it's Sense 2, "of more than usual emotion," but I need to be sure. Let's see... "emotional reports" - reports *characterized* by emotion. I'm leaning toward Sense 2, but let's check it again.

Let's use the synsets to verify.

Okay, let's verify again.

"teemed with emotional first-hand reports." Yes, that makes sense. It's the "full of emotion" sense.

Sense 3 is relational: emotional health, emotional development, emotional crisis (pertaining to emotion). Not quite. Sense 2 feels the best. Sense 2 is qualitative. It applies.

Yes, Sense 2 is the best fit here. The reports are *characterized* by a heightened level of emotion. "An emotional speech" would be another example of this sense. Bingo!

Context:
In the long, frightening night after Tuesday's devastating earthquake, Bay Area residents searched for comfort and solace wherever they could. Some found it on the screen of a personal computer. Hundreds of Californians made their way to their computers after the quake, and checked in with each other on electronic bulletin boards, which link computers CB-radio-style, via phone lines. Some of the most vivid bulletins came over The Well, a Sausalito, Calif., board that is one of the liveliest outposts of the electronic underground. About two-thirds of the Well's 3,000 subscribers live in the Bay Area. The quake knocked The Well out for six hours, but when it came back up, it teemed with emotional first-hand <t>reports</t>.

**Analyzing the Senses of "Reports" in Context**

Okay, the target is "reports," plural, in the context of people writing about an earthquake on electronic bulletin boards.  I need to figure out which sense of "report" is most appropriate. Immediately, I see it's "emotional first-hand reports," so I know it's about accounts of the event.

The potential senses jump out: a written document, the act of informing by verbal report, a short account of the news, an explosive sound, a report card, an essay, and reputation. I quickly eliminate explosive sound, report card, essay/composition and reputation.

The "electronic bulletin boards" context points to written, not spoken, communication. So, "verbal" in the definitions is about "expressed in words" rather than necessarily spoken. It can be "first-hand reports."

Now, is it Sense 2: "the act of informing by verbal report" (synonym: account), or Sense 3: "a short account of the news" (news report, story, account, write up)? Considering "first-hand," it leans toward accounts of people's experiences during the earthquake, not necessarily a formal news report.  The bulletin board postings are not news reports in the journalistic sense, but they *are* accounts of the news of the earthquake.

Looking at WordNet, "verbal" often refers to being "expressed in words," not necessarily oral, which is important for distinguishing the meaning here.

Sense 2 seems a good fit - "the act of informing by verbal report" -- and the examples fit well. "He heard reports that they were causing trouble" is more like the informal sharing I'm seeing here.

But wait, does this mean Sense 3 could work as well? They *are* posting news, but it's personal. The context, "checked in with each other," suggests informal sharing of experiences. "Emotional first-hand reports" screams personal accounts.

I see that "account" is a synonym for both. "Heard reports that..." fits better with informal, non-journalistic content. "first-hand reports" as "first-hand accounts". "The act of informing by verbal report" (Sense 2) is a stronger fit here. So it makes sense to go with Sense 2, where the "reports" are individual postings about the earthquake.

**Analyzing the Meaning of "Electronic"**

Okay, so the target word is "electronic," and it's used in the context of "electronic traffic" from computer bulletin boards. Right away, I'm thinking about the possible senses. We've got two clear options: one is broadly about anything relating to electronics and devices that use electron principles, and the other is more directly about electrons themselves, as in physics.

Since the context is communication, I can eliminate the second sense pretty quickly. "Electronic traffic" implies a *method* of communication, and that method relies on electronic *devices* – computers, modems, etc. – and the movement of data in the form of electrical signals. It's about the broader field of *electronics* itself, how we're using those principles to communicate. Therefore, the first sense is the clear winner here. It's the application, not the raw material, that's central to the intended meaning.

**Analyzing "Traffic" in the Aftermath**

Okay, so the key term is "traffic," and the scenario involves electronic communication on bulletin boards after an earthquake. My initial reaction is to think through the possible senses of "traffic." I immediately consider the classic interpretations: the movement of people or vehicles, the exchange of goods in a market, and then, the crucial one, the volume of activity over a communication system. This last sense – the amount of activity over a communication system during a given period of time – seems the most relevant, especially in a digital context. And given the context, "electronic traffic," representing communication activity, I'm confident that sense number three is the intended meaning. It's a precise fit.

**Disambiguating "Time" in Context**

Okay, let's break this down. My goal here is to pinpoint the exact meaning of "time" within this snippet: "... The time is Pacific Daylight Time, and the initials or nicknames are those subscribers use to identify themselves. 11:54 p.m." The objective is to identify which sense is used, from the given list.

I've got ten candidate senses to consider. I'll quickly eliminate based on relevance. "An instance or single occasion," "a period of time considered as a resource," "an indefinite period," "a suitable moment," "the continuum of experience," "a person's experience," "the fourth coordinate," "rhythm," and "prison term" - those are definitely out. None of those seem to fit the context at all.

That leaves us with "a reading of a point in time as given by a clock" (sense 7). The phrase "The time is Pacific Daylight Time" is a clear indication of a time reading. Following that, "11:54 p.m." solidifies this. This is, without a doubt, a statement of the current time. Sense 7 is the only correct answer. It's a perfect match. Done.

**Analyzing the Lemma "Time" in Context**

Okay, so the target is "Time," with a capital "T", and the context is "The time is Pacific Daylight Time, and the initials or nicknames are those subscribers use to identify themselves." Wait, actually the context has `<t>Time</t>`, making it easier to parse. Let's see... "The time is Pacific Daylight <t>Time</t>." I think the target phrase here is "Pacific Daylight Time" and the goal is to determine the correct sense of "Time."

"Pacific Daylight Time" refers to, I believe, a system of representing a moment in time. Let me consider the candidate senses: *instance, resource, indefinite period, suitable moment, continuum, personal experience, clock time, fourth coordinate, rhythm, prison term*. Hmmm, let's see.

I recall WordNet defines "Pacific Time" as "standard time in the 8th time zone west of Greenwich," and that "standard time" is a hyponym of "time#7," which is essentially clock time. Sense 7: "a reading of a point in time as given by a clock" (synonyms: clock time). Examples are like, "Do you know what time it is?" or "The time is 10 o'clock."

"Standard time," "daylight-saving time," "Pacific Time," they all ultimately relate to a reading of a specific point in time or what we call clock time.

Therefore, I'm leaning heavily towards sense 7 being the most appropriate for "Pacific Daylight Time." Just to be completely sure...

Sense 7: "a reading of a point in time as given by a clock" (synonyms: clock time). Standard time is a system of measurement of clock time. Given the phrase "The time is Pacific Daylight Time..." the word "Time" here actually refers to a clock time system.

Yes, I'm confident. I'll choose sense 7.

**Analyzing the Meaning of "Subscribers"**

Okay, so the lemma I'm working with is "subscriber," specifically the plural "subscribers," and the context is "The Well," that electronic bulletin board with 3,000 users in the Bay Area. The sentence mentions how these "subscribers" use initials or nicknames to identify themselves. Right away, I'm thinking these "subscribers" are definitely users of the bulletin board, people with accounts – likely paying for the service, but at the very least, they're consumers.

Now, let's look at the candidate senses. I've got: approval, receiving a service, and financial contribution. Clearly, it's not about expressing approval or contributing money directly in this context. It has to be sense 2: "someone who contracts to receive and pay for a service or a certain number of issues of a publication."

Let me just quickly confirm. The Well was a dial-up BBS that had a subscription fee, right? Yes, precisely. They paid a fee to access the system. Therefore, that definition from sense 2 is spot on. Its users *are* subscribers in the classic sense. Sense index 2 is the best fit, no question.

**Analyzing the Verb "Use" in Context**

Okay, so the lemma is "use," and the surface form is, unsurprisingly, also "use." My context is: "...the initials or nicknames are those subscribers use to identify themselves." Right away, I'm thinking, I need to pinpoint the specific sense of "use" here. It's not about consuming something, or exploiting it. I have some candidate meanings in mind: 1) to "put into service, make work or employ for a particular purpose... (utilize, utilise, apply, employ)", 2) to "take or consume (regularly or habitually) (drugs)", 3) "use up, consume fully", 4) "seek or achieve an end by using to one's advantage (exploit)", 5) "avail oneself to (apply a principle)", and 6) "habitually do something".

I'm leaning towards the first definition, "put into service" or "employ." Thinking about how subscribers interact with these initials or nicknames, they are *employing* or *utilizing* them *for the purpose* of identification. That fits perfectly. I can confidently rule out the drug-related and exhaustive usage options. The idea of *exploiting* or *applying a principle* also doesn't really work here. Therefore, sense one is the clear winner; it's a perfect match for how I, as a linguist, understand "use" in this particular snippet.

**Deconstructing the Meaning of "Identify" in Context**

Alright, the target is "identify," and the context is "subscribers use to identify themselves." My initial thought is to run through the senses and see which clicks. Sense 2, "give the name or identifying characteristics of," seems promising, as in, "subscribers use nicknames to name themselves." However, I need to check against the others. Sense 1, "recognize as being; establish the identity of," is also on the radar.

Let's dissect the nuances. "Identify themselves," does it mean to *state* their name, or to *establish* who they are? If they are using an ID badge, they are *establishing* their identity. So, does using a nickname function similarly? Is it just a shortened name, or something more?

I'm thinking "identify oneself" often leans towards stating one's name, but in the case of "subscribers," is that it? Let's check WordNet. Looking at "identify%2:32:00::" vs. "identify%2:31:00::" is helpful here. It's either "name" or "recognize/establish." "The almanac identifies the auspicious months" vs. "He identified himself as a police officer."

Now, it's seeming like establishing who they are. "Identify yourself!" - that's about establishing *your* identity. "Identify themselves" fits better with Sense 1.  Using a nickname is a method to *establish* their identity.

Okay, let's look at dictionaries and corpora. "Identify oneself" usually falls under "establish or indicate who or what (someone or something) is." And from corpus data, it seems Sense 1 is most annotated as such, "establish their identity."

Therefore, I'm leaning toward Sense 1 for this. Sense 2 seems to be more about naming, listing, or associating people and things.  Sense 1 is the core sense of "identify" (who someone is).

Finally, reviewing the available senses:

1: place%2:31:00::, recognize as being; establish the identity of someone or something
2: name%2:32:00::, give the name or identifying characteristics of; refer to by name or some other identifying characteristic property

Thus, in this specific usage of the phrase "identify themselves," establishing the identity seems the correct application.

**Analyzing the Context of "Avenues"**

Okay, so the lemma I'm working with is "avenue," and the surface form is "avenues." The context given is, "Wow! I was in the avenues, on the third floor of an old building,..." This is pretty straightforward for me, thankfully. Given my expertise, I immediately recognize this usage. The "avenues" here is almost certainly referring to a specific district or neighborhood *known* for its avenues. Thinking of San Francisco, the Richmond or Sunset Districts immediately spring to mind—often colloquially called "The Avenues."

Therefore, it isn't used figuratively. It's referring to the physical wide streets and thoroughfares. It has to be sense 2 – a wide street or thoroughfare, as the definition states. The context just doesn’t allow for any other interpretation, especially considering I know the area the sentence is referencing. This is a clear-cut case.

**Analyzing the Context of "Floor"**

Okay, so the target is "floor" – pretty straightforward, and the surface form is identical, so no inflectional gymnastics needed. The context is: "Wow! I was in the avenues, on the third floor of an old building..." Now, immediately I can tell, this isn't about the *physical* bottom surface of a space, but rather a level within the building. I've got two senses to consider from my knowledge base: one is the physical "inside lower horizontal surface", the other is "a structure consisting of a room or set of rooms at a single position along a vertical scale," basically a "level" or "story". Given the phrase "third floor *of an old building*", sense 2 is the obvious and unambiguous winner. No ambiguity here, it's a clear case of "level".

**Analyzing the Semantics of "Old" in Context**

Okay, the target is "old" within "an old building," and the situation is someone experiencing what sounds like an earthquake on the third floor. My primary task is to identify the most fitting sense of "old" in this context, understanding how it contributes to the overall meaning.

Immediately, I start running through the candidate senses: the age of a person, something of long duration, familiarity, experienced, belonging to the past, informal emphasis, an early stage in development, and preceding something.

Given "an old building," I quickly focus on the senses relating to duration or age. "Old house" is a synonym; buildings aren't usually described as "skilled" or "experienced".

Sense 2, "of long duration; not new," looks promising, as does the example: "old house". The building being "old" signifies its age. Sense 8, although it is a possibility ("my old house was larger") implies a building from a previous time that is unlikely in this context. The person is *in* the building. This makes sense 2 the best match. The definition directly aligns with the idea of a building's age and relative lack of recent construction. Therefore, it is the most suitable interpretation for the sentence "in the avenues, on the third floor of an old building".

**Deconstructing "Building" in Context**

Alright, let's break this down. The target word is "building," and the context is "I was in the avenues, on the third floor of an old building." Immediately, I'm already sifting through the potential senses. We've got the standard definitions: Sense 1, the edifice itself – the physical structure with a roof and walls; Sense 2, the *act* of construction; Sense 3, the commercial aspect of that construction, and Sense 4, the people *in* the building.

Given my understanding of semantics and how context works, the phrase "on the third floor of an old building" is a pretty strong indicator. It's pointing directly to the physical space. Therefore, after a quick analysis, Sense 1, the "edifice," is the only logical choice here. It's a straightforward disambiguation. No need to overthink it.

**Heart Analysis**

Okay, so the word I'm working with here is "heart." The immediate context is pretty clear: "...except for my heart (Beat, BEAT!) I'm OK." My initial assessment is that this refers to a physical reaction – specifically, a rapid heartbeat, probably stemming from the person being startled or scared. The earthquake likely caused this.

Now, let's look at Candidate 2: "the hollow muscular organ located behind the sternum... its rhythmic contractions move the blood through the body." That's the definition of the *organ*. And that definition, coupled with the example sentence "he stood still, his heart thumping wildly," is an excellent match. The "Beat, BEAT!" clearly indicates the physical action of the heart.

The sense index is 2, which aligns perfectly. The connection is quite clear. This is a very straightforward instance of the word "heart" referencing the physical organ and its function, given the contextual clues. No ambiguity here.

**Deconstructing "Fallen" in the Context of Disaster**

Okay, so the target is "fallen," and the context is an earthquake aftermath: "Got back to Bolinas, and everything had fallen: broken poster frames with glass on the floor, file cabinets open or dumped onto the floor." My first instinct is to immediately start sifting through the senses of "fall" to nail down the precise meaning here. Given the scene, it's pretty clear we're dealing with objects losing their upright position or dropping to the floor due to an external force.

Initially, I'm considering a few contenders: Sense 1, "descend in free fall," and perhaps Sense 23, "lose an upright position suddenly." "Everything had fallen" sounds like stuff ending up on the floor. I'm focusing on "broken poster frames with glass on the floor, file cabinets open or dumped onto the floor." The broken poster frames bring "descend in free fall" to mind if they were on the wall. The file cabinets, if they are dumped, suggest "lose an upright position suddenly."

But wait, are we talking about free fall versus simply tipping over? The phrasing "everything had fallen" is broad, right? It usually implies a generalized drop to the floor. Should I consider Sense 1 or Sense 23?

I'm thinking about the implications. "Posters fell off the wall," that's free fall (Sense 1) for sure. However, file cabinets? Probably tipped over, which is Sense 23. But the phrase "everything had fallen" feels more general; it encompasses all objects ending up on the floor. My WordNet senses are: Sense 1: fall%2:38:03:: (descend in free fall) and Sense 23: fall%2:38:15:: (lose an upright position suddenly).

Okay, so "everything had fallen" means everything dropped. We're talking about things dropping from a height (posters) or tipping over (file cabinets dumped onto the floor). Both are influenced by gravity.

So, let's step back. If it's something falling *to* the floor in a general sense, what's the typical default? I'm checking the dictionary, and again, the initial instinct is Sense 1, "descend in free fall." This feels like the primary physical sense here: objects dropping to the floor. Though it's possible that the "open or dumped" is important to Sense 23.

So, is there an example where the object is on the ground, and "fall" is Sense 1? Yes, "The book fell to the floor". That's Sense 1: descending in free fall.

"Everything had fallen" can encompass both a poster falling off the wall and a file cabinet tipping over. I'm leaning toward Sense 1, but recognizing that it's an interpretation and that Sense 23 is also potentially applicable. It seems like the core meaning is the *result* of gravity acting on objects, causing them to end up on the floor. "file cabinets...dumped onto the floor" might suggest Sense 23 (tipped over), but generally, things dropped. I'm choosing Sense 1 for a broader sense of "dropped" because the "everything" includes the posters.

Given "fallen" here, meaning "dropped to the floor", Sense 1, "descend in free fall" seems the most appropriate as a general description.

**Analyzing the "Poster" Context**

Okay, the word is "poster". The context mentions "broken poster frames with glass on the floor," which immediately tells me we're dealing with something held *by* a frame. It’s obviously not a person or a horse. Let’s look at the candidate senses.

Candidate 1 is a "sign posted in a public place as an advertisement," which aligns with synonyms like "posting," "placard," and "notice." That fits! Frames *hold* these things. This is a printed picture or sign.

Candidate 2 refers to "someone who pastes up bills." Hmm, a person. Not likely.

Candidate 3 is "a horse kept at an inn". Not even close.

The only candidate that makes sense with "frames" is Candidate 1, that's it, that's the only logical choice. Sense 1 is the clear winner here. Simple enough.

**Deconstructing "Frames" in the Context of a Broken Poster**

Okay, the target is "frames" within the description of "broken poster frames with glass on the floor." My mind immediately jumps to the potential senses of the word. Let's see...

Right off the bat, I know we're dealing with something physical, so I immediately start eliminating the more abstract senses. Eyeglasses frames? No. Film frames? Unlikely, given the context. The human body? Definitely not. A baseball inning? Nope. A comic strip drawing? That's closer to the physical, but doesn't quite fit the breakage context. A computer application window? Not relevant here. Frame of reference (assumptions)? Too abstract, moving on. Skeleton? Too metaphorical and far-fetched.

Hmm... internal supporting structure for an artifact. That's getting closer. But not quite. Bowling frame? No way. Then it hits me, sense number 10: *a framework that supports and protects a picture or a mirror.* Yes! That's it, the perfect fit. "Poster frames" are exactly that, and the breakage description is consistent. Therefore, Sense 10 is the best sense to apply. That's the one.

**Analyzing "Glass" in Context**

Okay, so the task is to pinpoint the specific meaning of "glass" in "broken poster frames with glass on the floor." My initial thought process is to quickly activate all the salient senses I have for "glass" and then see which fits the context best.

Right off the bat, I know there are multiple senses, beyond the obvious material. I've got glass as a material (the transparent solid), that's sense 1: glass%1:27:00::, which is probably what we are dealing with here. Then there's glass as a container for beverages - a drinking glass (sense 2). Then there's "glassware" collectively (sense 7). The context screams that it's the material, the protective covering of the poster frame that's been broken.

So, I'm going with sense 1 - the brittle, transparent, amorphous solid, the type of glass used in picture frames. It's the material that was physically *in* the frames that's now broken and scattered on the floor. That's the only sense that makes logical sense in this sentence. The others are completely irrelevant.
