Okay, here's my interpretation of this scenario, keeping in mind my expertise:

**San Jose Soccer Specifics**

Alright, let's break this down. We're discussing a soccer game, specifically one featuring Costa Rica and Spain. The mention of the National Stadium in San Jose immediately flags my attention. Now, San Jose, of course, is a common place name. I have to parse the context to determine the referent here. We have two very different options immediately. I need to be careful.

First, I think of San Jose, California. Very important in the tech industry, not a soccer hotbed, however. No, that can't be correct.

The National Stadium is the key. That definitely points to San Jose, Costa Rica. That's the correct referent here; the capital and largest city. The context makes the correct San Jose clear as day, for this conversation. Case closed.

**Analyzing "Number One" in Context**

Alright, let's break this down. The target phrase is "number one." Given the context – specifically, the phrase "in the monthly top of FIFA" – my initial instinct is to consider the various definitions. I've got three options presented, and I need to determine which best fits this specific usage.

The first sense, implying self-interest, is immediately ruled out. "Taking care of number one" doesn't make any sense here. That leaves us with the other two options. Sense 2 describes being the "first or highest in an ordering or series." Sense 3 describes being the "first element in a countable series."

Considering the sentence, "While the Europe and world champions, number one in the monthly top of FIFA, have a long record...", the idea is clearly about *ranking* within the FIFA system. The phrase "monthly top of FIFA" is explicitly about placement in a ranking or order. Sense 3, while related to "first," is more about an initial element in a sequence. Sense 2, with its specific mention of "highest in an ordering or series," is a perfect fit. It maps directly to "the top of FIFA rankings," indicating the highest-ranked team. Therefore, sense index 2 is the correct interpretation.

**Analyzing the Sense of "Record"**

Okay, the target word is "record" in this sentence: "While the Europe and world champions, number one in the monthly top of FIFA, have a long record of Class A inter selection, the Tricolor has only the defender Michael Umana as the only one who has 50 international games." My initial instinct is to go through the senses. Let's see what we've got.

The first sense, a document or permanent evidence, doesn't seem to fit at all. Then there's sound recordings, and legal documents – also not a match. A win-loss tally... nope. Okay, "the sum of recognized accomplishments (track record)" – that's potentially interesting. A "compilation of known facts" is another option. Then we have "extreme attainment" and "criminal record", both of which seem totally off-base.

The key phrase here is "have a long record of Class A inter selection." This feels like they're talking about *experience*, or their *history* within that specific context. So, is it "track record" or a "compilation of known facts"?

Now, let's examine the senses more closely. "Track record" really hits the mark. Looking at the examples, "the lawyer has a good record; the track record shows that he will be a good president," it's about demonstrated ability and past performance, and history. Having a "long record of [something]" clearly means having a long history or track record of it. The "compilation of known facts" sense is valid, but "track record" feels like a better fit.

So, comparing sense 4 and sense 5, sense 4 – "the sum of recognized accomplishments" - feels like the best interpretation. It's their history of achievements, selections, or game appearances. It’s definitely about their experience in Class A inter selection. The "track record" synonym is telling. Therefore, my final determination is sense 4.

**Analyzing the Nuance of "Games" in a Football Context**

Okay, so I need to nail down the specific meaning of "games" in this football-related sentence. It's clear that it refers to something connected to international football matches, but let's be precise.

I've got a few potential senses from the lexicon: a general "contest with rules," a single play or match, or something more abstract like an amusement. The context immediately leans toward a sporting event, so the amusement sense is out. Now, let's differentiate between the first two, the "contest" versus "single play" senses.

I'm thinking about the phrase "50 international games." Each of those "games" represents an individual event, a single match played by the footballer. The general sense of a "contest with rules" doesn't quite fit; that's more about the overarching type of competition.

I'll consult WordNet for clarification. Sense 1, the general contest, seems too broad. It encompasses things like card games and board games. Sense 2, the "single play of a sport or other contest," immediately looks more promising. WordNet's definition for this sense, "a single play of a sport or other contest," and the example "the game lasted two hours" is spot-on. It's a discrete event, like a match.

I'll examine the hyponyms of sense 2 - match, shutout, etc. Yes, *match* is even listed as a direct hyponym. These are precisely the types of things being counted when we say someone has played "50 international games". Therefore, I'm confident that sense 2, game%1:04:03::, is the correct sense. It's the individual match, the single event of athletic competition, that's being referenced.

**Determining the Correct WordNet Sense for "number"**

Okay, so I'm trying to figure out the right WordNet sense for "number" in this sentence: "...the Tricolor has only the defender Michael Umana as the only one who has 50 international games. That <t>number</t> was reached Friday...". My initial thought is that it refers to the quantity, but let's dive into the options.

First, I'm considering Sense 1 (the property of a total/quantity) versus Sense 2 (the concept of a number itself). Sense 1 seems relevant because "That number" refers to the "50 international games," which is a quantity. However, the definition of Sense 2 is "a concept of quantity involving zero and units," which also technically applies to "50".

I'm thinking, "Is '50' a 'number' in the abstract sense (Sense 2), or is 'that number of games' a 'figure' or 'total' (Sense 1)?" I'm noticing that Sense 1's synonyms include "figure," and "that figure" works well in the context. However, "the number of parameters is small" implies an amount, which also fits here, and it's making it harder to discern.

Now, let's go back to the definitions in WordNet. Sense 1 is defined as "the property possessed by a sum or total or indefinite quantity of units or individuals" and its hypernym is amount. Sense 2 is "a concept of quantity involving zero and units" and its hypernym is a definite_quantity.

My line of thought is that, since "50" is a cardinal number, which is a hyponym of number%1:23:00::, but, can a number in Sense 2 be "reached"?

I'm starting to lean towards Sense 1 because "That number" clearly refers back to "50" international games. I'm wondering: can a Sense 2 "number" be 'reached'? I don't think so. "That figure was reached," however, does sound right.

Now I'm looking at SemCor examples. "the number of..." consistently uses Sense 1:07:00. Even when it refers to a specific numerical value.

Then I realized that "That number was reached Friday" is referring to an amount. It's not referring to the number '50', or the concept '50', but to '50 games' being reached. The number of games, "50" was reached.

Alright, let's keep going. Does "That number" mean "That quantity/figure (50)"? "the number 50", uses sense 2, but, what if the subject in "That number was reached Friday"?

Now I'm making it even more explicit: "has 50 international games. That number was reached Friday..." "That number" refers to "50." Could it be either sense? "figure" works well. Now I'm considering "reach a number" vs "the number was reached" - does that make a difference? I don't think so.

Now I'm thinking, if you reach a number, e.g. "reach that number / figure": "That figure", it's clearly sense 1, but "figure%1:07:00::" is in the same synset with "number%1:07:00::". And "50" is under sense 2, under the cardinal numbers.

Okay, let's check what WordNet says for "That number was reached Friday" - I can't quite distinguish between sense 1 and sense 2.

Now I'm thinking about *why* the author would use "That number was reached". It's because "50" is a number, and Michael reached that *number* of games. "That number" = "50". "He scored 100 goals. That number was reached yesterday." Does it mean the abstract concept, or the sum/total/figure?

Okay, let's check what WordNet *distinguishes* in the definitions.

*   **Sense 1:** {number, figure} - the *property* of a total or amount.
*   **Sense 2:** {number} - the *concept* of quantity.

Now I'm revisiting SemCor: "the number reached 50" uses Sense 1! "That number was reached" - it's referring to the number of games, a count. The total of games reached on Friday. "Michael Umana is the only one who has 50 international games. That number was reached Friday" - the milestone of 5

**Analyzing the "Game" Context**

Okay, so I'm presented with the word "game" in the sentence "That number was reached Friday before the <t>game</t> against Panama (0-2), in Rommel Fernandez." My immediate task is to determine the most fitting sense of "game" here. I quickly scan the potential senses: a contest, a single play, an amusement, an animal hunted, a tennis division, a score, flesh of animals, a secret scheme, equipment, an occupation, or frivolous behavior. The context heavily favors senses 1 and 2: "a contest with rules" and "a single play," respectively.

Now, let's dive deeper. Sense 1 suggests a contest with rules to determine a winner, like a generalized category or a type of competition. Sense 2 describes a singular instance of that sport, like a specific match or event. A quick check of WordNet clarifies the distinction. Sense 1's hypernym is "contest," while sense 2's hypernym is "event." I then verify: A game as in "a contest with rules" would have hyponyms like "ball game" or "match." And it seems that a specific match/game, "the game lasted two hours" is the clear example for sense 2.

The key question is whether the reference is to a *type* of game or a *specific occurrence*.  The example, "the game against Panama," strongly suggests a *specific* event, a temporal, localized, singular instance. The location ("in Rommel Fernandez") further cements this. I check what WordNet says about sense 2, and what the example used is: "the game lasted two hours".

Now, let's consult SemCor annotations to check how they annotate a football/baseball/etc. match when using the word "game". I have to consider whether a match is sense 1 or sense 2.

WordNet confirms that "match" is a hyponym of the broader "contest," similar to "game." Both are under the competition category, but "match" and "game" are distinct types. I confirm: sense 2 has the definition "a single play of a sport or other contest."

Finally, I go back to checking hyponyms. Away games, home games, playoffs, all those are clear occurrences. That settles it. The definition is, “a single play of a sport or other contest” and the context strongly supports this.

In conclusion, given that the sentence refers to a specific instance—a match against Panama, it's clear the correct sense here is sense 2: a single play of a sport or other contest. Therefore, game%1:04:03:: is the correct sense.

I have three senses to consider: an association of sports teams, an association of states or organizations, and an obsolete unit of distance. Given the football context, the latter two are obviously out. The phrase "All-Star League" and the mention of "powerful clubs" in the Premier League strongly indicate we're dealing with a sports *league*. Therefore, my instinct tells me that the first sense: "an association of sports teams that organizes matches for its members" is the correct one. The context perfectly aligns. The sense index is, without a doubt, 1.

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

Alright, let's break this down. The target word is "year" in a sentence about Spanish footballers. My initial thought is, "Okay, year... what's the intended meaning?" I'm immediately running through the potential senses. Is it the general period of 365 days (Sense 1), a specific activity period like a "school year" (Sense 2), or something else entirely?

The phrase "during the year" is key. That pulls me up short. Does "during the year" refer to a calendar year, or to the football season? I know the phrase "during the year" is often used to describe the calendar year and not a specific "season" of something.

Let me re-examine Sense 2: *a period of time occupying a regular part of a calendar year that is used for some particular activity.* The definition is there, but I'm thinking about how we *actually* talk about these things. We'd likely say "football season" or "academic year" or "fiscal year". The word "season" is often used. The phrase "during the year" isn't *quite* right.

Okay, let's go back to Sense 1: *a period of time containing 365 (or 366) days.* "During the year" just sounds more natural as "over the course of a 365-day period." Is that it?

I need to confirm. I'm checking WordNet. Let's see... Sense 1: "a period of time containing 365 (or 366) days," and Sense 2: "a period of time occupying a regular part of a calendar year that is used for some particular activity." Hold on! Doesn't Sense 2 have hyponyms? Checking… yes: "academic year," "school year," "fiscal year," etc. So, "a school year" is not necessarily just called "a year."

The lack of any kind of modification in the original sentence seems to point strongly to Sense 1. Since it's simply "during the year," the intended meaning is the calendar year. My final judgement: Sense 1 is the most appropriate here.

**Analyzing the Meaning of "League"**

Okay, the target word is "league" and it appears in this sports-related context: "...are during the year very active in *league* and local cup competitions...". Immediately, I'm thinking, given the domain, the likely sense is going to be within the sports context. Let's see... the candidate senses I'm provided are:

*   "an association of sports teams that organizes matches for its members"
*   "an association of states or organizations or individuals for common action"
*   "an obsolete unit of distance of variable length (usually 3 miles)"

Given that the sentence mentions "league" within the phrase "league and local cup competitions," this strongly supports the idea of organized sporting events. The other senses seem completely unrelated to the given context. It's obvious that the first sense, "an association of sports teams that organizes matches for its members," is the only one that makes any sense here. Therefore, my selection is sense 1.

**Analyzing the Nuances of "Competitions"**

Okay, so the target word is "competitions" within the phrase "league and local cup competitions." My initial instinct is to run through the possible senses. We've got a few candidates here, and it's all about precision.

First, sense 1, the business competition one, doesn't feel right. We're talking about *football* leagues and cups, not market share. Not applicable.

Then there's sense 4, the rival/challenger. No, not that either; we're talking about the events themselves, not the entities participating in them.

Sense 3, the act of competing – "contention, rivalry" – is closer, but it's abstract. It's the *process* of competition. And "competitions" is a countable *noun*. It feels like this definition is more abstract than what we are looking for.

Which leaves us with sense 2 – "an occasion on which a winner is selected from among two or more contestants" (a "contest" or a "tournament"). Bingo. It’s a countable noun, "competitions," and directly maps to the idea of tournaments or contests within the context of league and local cup football events. "League and local cup competitions" clearly refers to specific *events* or *occasions* where teams compete. It's a contest, an athletic competition, where a winner is decided. Sense 2 is the most precise and accurate. The other senses are close but not exactly right.

**Analyzing the Sense of "Experience"**

Okay, let's break this down. The target word is "experience," and we're looking at it within the context of football qualifications. The first phrase mentions the "Spanish Fury experience" in relation to complex qualifying processes for major tournaments like the Euro Cup and World Cup. Immediately, my expertise kicks in, and I see this as the *accumulated knowledge and skill* the Spanish team has gained through *repeated participation* in these high-pressure, complex qualification matches. It's about their veteran status and what they've learned over time, not just about witnessing an event.

Now, we contrast that with "The Ticos players, however, have a limited international experience..." This is key. The contrast highlights that it is the **lack** of that seasoned knowledge and skill that sets the Ticos apart. It is this lack of skill that is the issue, and not an event.

This clearly points to the first sense I considered: "the accumulation of knowledge or skill that results from direct participation in events or activities." That sense aligns perfectly with the nuance of the context, the team's familiarity with the pressure and intricacies of those specific qualification matches.

I quickly rule out the other senses. Sense 2, "the content of direct observation or participation in an event," is too broad here. It doesn't capture the longitudinal aspect of accumulated knowledge. Sense 3, "an event as apprehended," is even less fitting; it is not about *an* event but their history of playing in complex matches.

Ultimately, sense index 1 is the most appropriate.

**Analyzing the Target Word "Players"**

Okay, here's the breakdown. The word "players" is the target, and I need to figure out the right meaning in this sentence. The context screams football – "Ticos," CONCACAF, FIFA, goalkeeper... all those buzzwords nail it down. Now, I have these senses to consider: participant, musician, actor, social butterfly, or a key participant in a deal. Clearly, we're not talking about musicians or actors here, and it's not some kind of dating scenario, or business deal. The reference to Costa Rican *football* players, in conjunction with the match context, makes it a no-brainer. Sense 1, the "participant" meaning – player%1:18:01:: – that's the one. It's the only one that makes logical and contextual sense here. The sentence is about Costa Rican *soccer* players. Case closed.

**My Analysis of "Experience" in Context**

Okay, so I need to nail down the precise WordNet sense for "experience" in this sentence: "The Ticos players, however, have a limited international <t>experience</t> in an area such as CONCACAF, which is considered the lowest level within FIFA We see that the peak of the Spanish selection is the goalkeeper Iker Casillas..."

Let's look at the candidates. Sense 1 is about the *accumulation of knowledge or skill* from doing things. Sense 2 describes the *content* of an event you're part of, like a religious event. And Sense 3 is simply *an event* itself, as it's perceived.

Right, back to the sentence. It's talking about how "limited international experience" the Tico players have. The key here is "limited." It's not about a single event (Sense 2 or 3). It's clearly about a *lack* of amassed knowledge, skill, or participation in international matches. They haven't been playing as much in those matches.

Aha! Sense 1, "the accumulation of knowledge or skill that results from direct participation in events or activities," is the perfect fit. "Limited international experience" translates directly to "they haven't accumulated much knowledge/skill/participation in international matches." That's the one.

**Deconstructing the "Area" in CONCACAF's Context**

Okay, so I'm presented with "The Ticos players, however, have a limited international experience in an area such as CONCACAF, which is considered the lowest level within FIFA." My task is to determine the correct sense of "area" in this sentence. Let's run through the candidates.

I've got six possibilities: a geographical region, a subject of study, a bodily part, an environment/walk of life, a structural component, and a 2D surface. Let's see... the sentence is about international experience and football. Immediately, I can dismiss senses three, five, and six; those are irrelevant. Sense two, a "subject of study", doesn't seem right either.

It's down to senses one and four: a geographical region or an environment/walk of life. CONCACAF is the Confederation of North, Central America and Caribbean Association Football. Is it a *geographical* "area", or an "environment" or "walk of life"?

Let's break this down. "An area *such as* CONCACAF" – that "such as" is key. CONCACAF *is* a regional governing body, that oversees football in a specific *geographic* area. It's often referred to as a "football area" or regional zone, translated from Spanish like "zona de CONCACAF" or "área de CONCACAF".

Sense 1, the geographical region, fits perfectly: "a particular geographical region of indefinite boundary (usually serving some special purpose...)" That fits *exactly*. And it *serves* the purpose of organizing football in that region.

I'm starting to lean heavily toward Sense 1. Let's see... Sense 4, the environment/walk of life, has synonyms like sphere, domain, arena. This is where it gets interesting... could it be a "sphere of football experience"? No, because CONCACAF is *itself* a region in this context. CONCACAF isn't just a sphere; it *is* the region. This is where it could get tricky since the organization is a sphere *in a way*, but, it represents the geographic region.

I can confirm that football regions like CONCACAF are metonymically geographical zones. "In an area such as CONCACAF". The definition for Sense 4 even has examples like "walk of life", "social sphere", all suggesting a metaphorical context. In Spanish, "el área de CONCACAF" refers to the specific *geographic* region. Sense 1 is the obvious choice.

Okay, let's just make sure.

*   Sense 1: Definitely works. A geographical region related to football.
*   Sense 2: Subject of study - Wrong.
*   Sense 3: Animal part - Wrong.
*   Sense 4: Environment/Walk of Life - Wrong. CONCACAF is not the *sphere* here, but the *region*.
*   Sense 5: Structural - Wrong.
*   Sense 6: 2D surface - Wrong.

Sense 1 is the clear winner here. CONCACAF is being used in the sense of a geographical region, even if the "special purpose" in this case is football. That's a solid conclusion.

**My Reasoning for Selecting the Sense of "Level"**

Okay, so I need to pinpoint the best sense of "level" in this context. It's about CONCACAF being considered the lowest "something" within FIFA. My initial thought process is to quickly consider the candidates. The key senses seem to be sense 1, sense 2, and maybe sense 3. I'm focusing on "lowest level." Does it mean the lowest *degree* or the lowest *tier*?

My first inclination is that since CONCACAF is a confederation, it's about its *position* or rank within the FIFA structure. That leans me towards sense 2, which is defined as "a relative position or degree of value in a graded group" – it includes synonyms like "grade" and "tier." The example of lumber graded by quality reinforces this idea.

However, I'm not jumping to conclusions. I'm carefully reviewing the definitions and examples for each of those key candidate senses, to avoid making hasty choices.

I see that sense 1 ("a position on a scale of intensity or amount or quality") seems to describe a *property* – like a "high level of care" or "a moderate grade of intelligence." It's about a degree *of* something, not the entity *being* a level.

So, now I'm thinking, does FIFA grade confederations or is it about the quality/competition level? Does "lowest level" describe the *quality* of CONCACAF, or the *position* of CONCACAF in the ranking/structure of FIFA? If "tier" is a synonym, is it not the best fit?

WordNet is a crucial resource here, so I'm consulting its organization of `level`. Sense 2 (grade, level, tier) has "rank" as a hypernym, pointing towards the "relative status" aspect. Sense 1 has "state" as a hypernym. Looking at the hyponyms, "echelon" under sense 2 gives me more confidence: the word "echelon" represents a level of the organization or "a position of authority".

I'm making a comparison between sense 1 and sense 2 now. I'm re-reading the sentence, considering "the lowest level" within FIFA, does it mean that CONCACAF *is* a level, or *has* a level? Looking at example sentences like "cabinet-level" or "state level," the word "level" refers to the role or *position* in an organization. The sentence uses the verb "is". It makes it all the more clear: "CONCACAF *is* the lowest level." CONCACAF is the entity, the subject, and the "lowest level" is the subject complement.

So, I'm returning to WordNet, to see whether I have made the correct assessment, and I check the hyponyms under the given candidate senses. Then, with sense 2, I can see examples of this type that include a level/tier.

Ultimately, I'm now certain. Sense 2 (level%1:26:01::) is the winner. CONCACAF is a "tier" within FIFA, so CONCACAF *is* the level/tier. It's a graded group, and CONCACAF is at the lowest end. The definition and synonyms align perfectly. This isn't about the *degree* of something (sense 1), or a *stage* (sense 3). It's all about position in a hierarchical structure.

**Analysis of "peak" in Context**

Alright, let's break this down. The target is "peak" in the phrase "the peak of the Spanish selection is the goalkeeper Iker Casillas." My initial candidates are pretty broad, encompassing the spectrum from literal geographic tops to more abstract concepts of the "best" or "most extreme." I need to zero in on which sense best fits this football-related context.

I'm starting by comparing the experience levels: Costa Rica's Michael Umana with 50 international games, versus Casillas's impressive 126. It immediately jumps out that this "peak" is related to a point of comparison – experience, specifically caps in this case. The key question is whether "peak" refers to a value, a physical location, or something more abstract.

The senses that are jumping out at me as most relevant are Sense 1 ("the most extreme possible amount or value"), Sense 3 ("the highest level or degree attainable"), and Sense 6 ("the highest point").  Sense 1 seems initially appealing, particularly given the numerical nature of the comparison, but 'extremum' feels like a poor fit for a person. Sense 6, being a *point* of something, is less of a fit. It doesn't quite capture the idea of 'highest degree' of experience.

I'm leaning towards Sense 3. It covers terms like "acme", "pinnacle", and "summit". Can a person be a peak? The key here seems to be about translating the text - I see this often in SemEval and other WSD tasks. When the original text is in Spanish, "el pico de la selección... es el portero Iker Casillas" (in Spanish, "el pico de la selección... es el portero Iker Casillas" or "el punto más alto / el culmen / la cúspide"). It's more about the highest level of experience than a strictly literal "highest point."

The phrase in Spanish would be more akin to "the pinnacle of the team", which strongly supports the metaphorical Sense 3: "the highest level or degree attainable." Sense 3's synonyms (acme, height, elevation, pinnacle, summit, superlative) really capture the intended meaning of "the best" or "the most experienced" player in the context of the national team.

Now, checking the hypernyms gives me the final push: Sense 6 (vertex, apex) is a point (location), while Sense 3 (acme, summit) is a level (degree, grade). "Spanish selection" describes a group of players ranked by caps. The correct sense must be describing an achievement or quality. That's a "level".

**Analyzing the Term "Goalkeeper" in Context**

Okay, so the target word is "goalkeeper," and the sentence reads: "We see that the peak of the Spanish selection is the <t>goalkeeper</t> Iker Casillas, who last Saturday against England..." My initial thought is to quickly disambiguate the word. I need to determine if it refers to the player or the position. Let's look at the candidate senses.

Sense 1, labeled `goalkeeper%1:18:00::`, defines "goalkeeper" as "the soccer or hockey player assigned to protect the goal," with synonyms like "goalie," "goaltender," and "netminder." This immediately sounds like it could be correct, focusing on the individual.

Then, there's Sense 2, `goalkeeper%1:04:00::`, which defines it as "the defensive position on an ice hockey or soccer or lacrosse team who stands in front of the goal and tries to prevent opposing players from scoring." This is clearly the *role* or *position* itself, not the person.

The sentence explicitly mentions "the goalkeeper Iker Casillas." Since Iker Casillas is a person, and not a position, it's clear that the reference is to the *player*, not the *position*. Therefore, I can confidently select Sense 1, the noun referring to a person, as the accurate interpretation within this specific context. This is straightforward.

**My Reasoning for Word Sense Disambiguation of "Game"**

Okay, here's my thought process. The task is to pin down the right sense of "game" in that sentence. I've got a few candidates to choose from, and the context involves a football match: "We see that the peak of the Spanish selection is the goalkeeper Iker Casillas, who last Saturday against England (game lost with 0-1 in London) equaled the record of the ex goalkeeper Andoni Zubizarreta, with 126 international matches."

First, I need to understand the definitions of each sense. I quickly narrowed it down to focusing on a sport: senses 1 and 2. Sense 1 is about "a contest with rules to determine a winner," and Sense 2 is about "a single play of a sport or other contest."

Right away, Sense 2 feels more on point. The specific mention of a loss with a score ("0-1") points directly to a particular match, a sporting event. However, I need to make sure. I check the WordNet hierarchy.

I confirmed that Sense 1 refers to the *type* of contest or game in general, think chess or baseball, not the specific instance of a match. "You need four people to play this game" is a general statement.

But, I need to make *absolutely* sure. "game%1:04:03::" "a single play of a sport or other contest" seems promising. Then, I check the hypernyms: event, happening. A "football game" *is* an "event".

I go back to the context. I'm thinking about the sentence, and the fact that "game" is described as *lost with 0-1*, it's a specific, completed event. I think of the example of "the game lasted two hours" in WordNet. Yes, in this context it's that concrete, single occurrence.

I check for hyponyms of both. Hyponyms of sense 1 are a general collection of games; card game, sport, computer game, match (though match could apply to a single instance of a contest). Hyponyms of sense 2 are specific sports. It's a match, therefore, a football game is a hyponym of game%1:04:03::!

Therefore, "game" here can be interchanged with a synonym like 'match'. This is a very good fit.

Checking it again. Yes, in this case, "game" is definitely sense 2.

Sense 2 is "a single play of a sport or other contest". The context describes a specific *event* which occurred between England and Spain, which is what "game lost with 0-1 in London" is.

So, I am confident that Sense 2, "a single play of a sport or other contest", is the correct sense for "game" in this context.

**Disambiguating "London" in the Text**

Okay, here's what I'm thinking. I need to figure out the right meaning of "London" in this sentence. The context is about a football match – Spain versus England, and it mentions a game being lost in London. I have two potential senses to consider. The first, "london%1:15:00::," points to London as the capital city of England, which seems like the most obvious possibility in this scenario. The second, "london%1:18:00::," refers to the American writer, Jack London.

Given the context of a football match between England and Spain, held on English soil, it's pretty clear the game took place in the English capital. There's no possible relevance to a writer, regardless of how prolific they were. Therefore, I'm confident that "London" in this text refers to the city of London, making "sense_index": 1 the correct choice.

**Analyzing the Use of "Record"**

Okay, let's break this down. The target word is "record," and the context involves a goalkeeper, Iker Casillas, and international matches. I immediately scan my mental lexicon of possible senses.

My initial instinct, given the context of a sports achievement, leans toward sense 6: "an extreme attainment; the best (or worst) performance ever attested (as in a sport)." The text explicitly mentions Casillas "equaling the record" and then "imposing a new record" related to international matches. This aligns perfectly with the idea of a sporting best.

I quickly eliminate the other senses. Sense 1 ("permanent evidence") doesn't fit – we're talking about a *quantity* of matches, not a document. Sense 2 ("sound recording") and Sense 7 ("legal evidence") are irrelevant. Sense 3 ("wins versus losses") is a potential area, but not the best here. Sense 4 ("recognized accomplishments") is too broad, and doesn't capture the specific nature of a *best* performance. Sense 5 ("compilation of facts") is close, but again, not as specific as sense 6. Finally, Sense 8 ("list of crimes") is completely off-base.

Therefore, sense 6 is the clear winner. The text clearly references a performance benchmark – the *number* of international matches played – that can be *equaled* or *surpassed*, which is a classic definition of a sports record. The sense index is definitely 6.

**Analyzing the Sense of "Goalkeeper"**

Okay, so I need to nail down the precise meaning of "goalkeeper" in this sentence: "...equaled the record of the ex goalkeeper Andoni Zubizarreta, with 126 international matches." Right, let's look at the candidate senses. I've got two to consider:

*   **Sense 1:** "the soccer or hockey player assigned to protect the goal" - This seems like the *person* playing the position. (noun.person, 1:18:00)
*   **Sense 2:** "the defensive position on an ice hockey or soccer or lacrosse team..." - This describes the *position* itself. (noun.act, 1:04:00)

Now, the crucial phrase is "ex goalkeeper Andoni Zubizarreta." It's referring to *Andoni Zubizarreta* specifically. The sentence is about a record the *person* holds. Therefore, it has to be about the *player* and not the abstract *position*. Context clearly points to Sense 1, the soccer player. It's the only one that makes logical sense here. I think that's it.

**Analyzing the Meaning of "Matches"**

Okay, let's break this down. The task is to pinpoint the correct meaning of "matches" in the sentence: "Casillas... equaled the record of the ex goalkeeper Andoni Zubizarreta, with 126 international <t>matches</t>." I need to consider the context, which is clearly football/soccer, and determine which of the provided senses fits best.

My initial thought is to run through the options:

*   **Sense 1** is a lighter – definitely not right.
*   **Sense 2**, a formal contest, that feels *very* promising in this sporting context.
*   **Sense 3**, a burning piece of wood, that's absurd!
*   **Sense 4**, an exact duplicate – seems nonsensical here.
*   **Sense 5**, the score needed to win, isn't right.
*   **Senses 6 & 7** are about people and relationships – completely irrelevant.
*   **Senses 8 & 9** are also about relationships or resemblance – no.

Considering the sport, "international matches" explicitly refer to international sporting events, contests, or games. So the correct meaning of "matches" is self-evident. Therefore, I can confidently select **sense 2**.

Target lemma: today
Target surface form: today
Context:
That number was reached Friday before the game against Panama (0-2), in Rommel Fernandez. Spanish football players playing in the All-Star League and in powerful clubs of the Premier League of England are during the year very active in league and local cup competitions and there are high-level shocks in the European Cups and European Champions League. To this is added the Spanish Fury experience in complicated qualifications for Euro Cup and World Cup. The Ticos players, however, have a limited international experience in an area such as CONCACAF, which is considered the lowest level within FIFA We see that the peak of the Spanish selection is the goalkeeper Iker Casillas, who last Saturday against England (game lost with 0-1 in London) equaled the record of the ex goalkeeper Andoni Zubizarreta, with 126 international matches. Casillas will play <t>today</t> against the Tricolor and will impose a new record of 127 international matches for Spain. Xavi Hernandez, the player of Barcelona, has 106 matches.

**My Analysis of "Today" in Context**

Okay, so I need to nail down the precise WordNet sense for "today" in this sentence: "Casillas will play <t>today</t> against the Tricolor and will impose a new record of 127 international matches for Spain." Let's see, I have two candidate senses to consider:

Sense 1: "the present time or age". Okay, that's a general definition, like "the world of today." Does that fit? Hmm, not really. This is about a specific event happening on a particular day.

Sense 2: "the day that includes the present moment (as opposed to yesterday or tomorrow)". Ah, now we're talking. "Today is beautiful," or "did you see today's newspaper?" This seems much closer to the mark. This directly refers to the *specific* day of the football match.

Considering the context, "Casillas will play today against the Tricolor...", it's crystal clear that we are referring to a *specific* day, not the general "age." I see a football match is scheduled for *this* day, right now.

Yes, sense 2 is the clear winner here. I'm going with index 2. That's it, done.
