**Analyzing the Senses of "Kept"**

Okay, so I'm presented with the word "kept" in the sentence "The three of us stopped breathing for a moment, and then when it kept on coming we lunged for the doorway." My goal is to pinpoint the best sense of "kept" within this context. The expression I'm focusing on is "kept on coming." That "on" is critical; it's the "keep on" + V-ing structure that indicates continuation.

Let's look at the possible senses of "keep".

*   **Sense 1:** "keep in a certain state, position, or activity" – Maintain, hold. Not relevant here, I think. This one is about maintaining a static state.
*   **Sense 2:** "continue a certain state, condition, or activity" – Continue, go on, proceed. This is interesting. The definition lines up, and the synonyms are spot on. The example "Keep on working!" seals the deal.
*   **Sense 3:** "retain possession of" – Nope. This is about ownership.
*   **Sense 4:** "stop (someone or something) from doing something or being in a certain state" – This is about preventing action. Definitely not what's going on here.
*   **Sense 10:** "allow to remain in a place or position or maintain a property or feature (synonyms: retain, continue, keep on)" – Again, this is close to sense 2 but more general.

The phrase "kept on coming" clearly means something *continued* to come, right? It's about ongoing action. Sense 2 nails that precisely. "Continue," "go on," – those are perfect fits. The example sentence with "Keep on working!" is virtually identical to what's happening in the provided context. So, I'm going with Sense 2, and the explanation is solid.

**Analyzing "Coming" in the Context of an Earthquake**

Okay, so I'm presented with the phrase "when it kept on coming" within a narrative about an earthquake. My immediate task is to determine the correct sense of "coming". The first thing I'm doing is identifying the referent of "it" – the earthquake itself, or more specifically, the shaking or tremor.

I start by considering the different senses of "come" as defined by WordNet. I have several options in front of me: "move toward," "arrive," "come to pass," "come forth." My gut is leaning towards "move toward" because of the physical nature of an earthquake. I'm visualizing the narrative: the building is shaking, and it's a very physical, almost tangible experience. The characters are responding physically.

Initially, I consider "come to pass" as a possibility, since the earthquake "arrives," but the phrase "kept on coming to pass" doesn't quite work. It suggests a temporal sequence, not a continuous physical presence. The sentence is about the experience of the continuous shaking. "Keep arriving" could work, but "Keep on coming" just feels better, so my focus is back on "move toward."

I also glance at "come forth" but dismiss it as it's something that is emitted, such as a scream or breath.

To confirm my choice, I'm thinking about related constructions like "the waves kept coming", "the attack kept coming," or "the hits kept coming." These phrases describe continuous motion or a continuous sequence. It's that same sense of relentless progression that's happening here. The earthquake doesn't stop, it continues.

Now, my mind shifts to other contexts and how language is used, like in SemCor and MASC, and I start to think that this narrative is likely to be from a well-known corpus of earthquake narratives. If it is MASC, that should inform my interpretation further.

"Move toward, travel toward something or somebody or approach something or somebody" – that's the core. The earthquake, the shaking, is continuing to "approach" the people in the building. It's a continuous, physical onslaught. The phrase is best characterized as continuing to come at the people in the building. Thus, I am confident that sense 1 ("move toward") is the most appropriate interpretation.

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

Alright, let's break this down. The target word is "say" in the phrase "Needless to say, it was an interesting first session!" My task is to determine the correct sense of "say" within this context. I've been given a list of potential senses, each with a sense key, definition, and synonyms. I quickly sift through these options.

*   Sense 1, "express in words," with synonyms like "state" and "tell," immediately catches my attention. The phrase "needless to say" implies something obvious, something that doesn't need to be verbally stated. That aligns well with the concept of expressing something in words.
*   Sense 2, "report or maintain," doesn't quite fit the idiomatic context.
*   Sense 3, "express a supposition," is unlikely.
*   Sense 4, "have or contain a certain wording," is possible but feels less direct.
*   Sense 5, "give instructions or direct," has no relevance in this context.
*   Sense 6, "speak, pronounce, or utter in a certain way," is also off-base.
*   Sense 7, "communicate or express nonverbally," doesn't feel right.
*   Sense 8, "utter aloud," is too literal.
*   Sense 9, "state as one's opinion," is possible, but less precise.
*   Sense 10, "recite or repeat a fixed text," is irrelevant.
*   Sense 11, "indicate," is too vague.

The idiom "needless to say" strongly indicates that the intended meaning is sense 1. My intuition and knowledge of idiomatic expressions strongly suggest that sense 1, "express in words", is the best fit. I can replace "needless to say" with "needless to state" or "needless to mention", and the meaning remains clear. Therefore, I'm confident that sense 1 ("express in words") is the correct interpretation here.

Here's my analysis of the word "session" in that context:

**Analyzing the Meaning of "Session"**

Okay, so the target word is "session," and it's used in the sentence about starting a therapy meeting. Let's break this down systematically. I know the word has multiple senses, so I need to be precise.

First, I consider different potential senses. I have the sense of a legislative session, that's sense 1. Then there's an academic session, like a semester, that's sense 2. Sense 3, a general meeting for a specific activity like a filming or gossip session, feels relevant. Finally, I have sense 4, referring to a seance.

Considering the context, I was about to meet with new therapy clients, so the relevant definition is definitely not a legislative period or an academic term. And while "seance" is a meeting, it is not particularly useful in this instance. The meeting is also not particularly about filming or gossip.

That leaves the third option: a meeting devoted to a particular activity. Clearly, a therapy session *is* a meeting devoted to therapy. So, sense 3 (session%1:04:00::) is the correct sense. It's a meeting for therapy. Got it.

**Analyzing the Meaning of "Trouble"**

Okay, so I'm looking at the word "trouble" in this sentence: "Albany escaped embarrassingly unscathed. Biggest trouble was scared family who couldn't get a phone line through, and spent a really horrible hour not knowing." My initial task is to pin down the correct sense of "trouble" from the provided candidates.

First, I consider each potential sense. "Trouble%1:09:00::" – a source of difficulty, a problem. That seems plausible. The sentence reads: "Biggest *problem* was..." and that fits. Let's keep that in mind as a likely candidate.

Then I move to other options. "Trouble%1:11:01::" - an angry disturbance? No, that doesn't fit the context of a family struggling with a phone line. "Trouble%1:11:00::" – an event causing distress or pain? Could be. The family *is* experiencing distress. However, it's not the primary sense I'm looking for. "Trouble%1:04:02::" – an effort that is inconvenient? Not really, as there is the source of difficulty. "Trouble%1:12:03::" – a strong feeling of anxiety, a worry? While the family is certainly worried, the sentence is about the *cause* of their worry, not the worry itself. And "trouble%1:26:02::" - an unwanted pregnancy. Absolutely not.

Back to sense 1, "a source of difficulty" - "problem." That seems the best fit. I'm essentially substituting "problem" for "trouble" in the sentence. It reads: "Biggest problem was..." which makes perfect sense. I can then rule out "an event causing distress or pain" (Sense 3), even though it overlaps with the emotion, since the primary cause of the distress is the *problem* with the phone line. Thus, I'm confident that sense 1, the "source of difficulty" sense, is the correct interpretation.

Okay, let's break this down.

**Analyzing "Spend" in Context**

Alright, the target is "spend," specifically the past tense "spent," and the sentence fragment is "...and spent a really horrible hour not knowing." Right away, I see three potential senses, which are standard for this verb. We've got:

1.  *spend%2:42:00::* – passing time, something I deal with all the time in my work. The synonyms "pass" is helpful as is the example phrase: "how are you spending your summer vacation?".
2.  *spend%2:40:00::* – paying out, like expending money, and the synonyms "expend" and "drop." I use this all the time.
3.  *spend%2:40:01::* – spending completely, as in "I spend my pocket money in two days."

The key here is the direct object: "a really horrible hour." That's a unit of time, clearly. While senses 2 and 3 *could* be used metaphorically with time (I could say "I spent a fortune on this project"), the core meaning revolves around money.

Given the object "a really horrible hour", the first sense, *spend%2:42:00::* which is "pass time in a specific way", is the most obvious and accurate. This is a straightforward case of word sense disambiguation, and the context clearly points to the intended meaning. Done.

**My Analysis of "Hour" in Context**

Okay, so the target word is "hour," and the surrounding text describes a terrible experience lasting a certain amount of time, with timestamps like "7:13 a.m." and "8:01 a.m." The family endured a "really horrible hour not knowing." Right away, my mind jumps to the core meaning: a period of time, roughly 60 minutes. It's the standard definition, 1/24th of a day.

Now, let's just make sure, let's check the other possible senses of "hour" to eliminate any ambiguity. We've got:

*   **Sense 1:** The duration of 60 minutes, which seems like a perfect fit – "the job will take more than an hour".
*   **Sense 2:** Clock time – the actual moment on the clock, like "the hour is getting late". But that doesn't fit the phrase.
*   **Sense 3:** A significant period, like "it was their finest hour." Nope, this one doesn't make sense.
*   **Sense 4:** Distance measured by the time taken to cover it, like "we live an hour from the airport." Again, a miss.

So, the phrase "spent a really horrible hour not knowing" strongly suggests sense 1. It is clearly describing a span of time and not a specific point in time or a figurative period. The temporal context provided supports a straightforward, literal interpretation. I'm going with sense 1.

**My Analysis of "Knowing" in Context**

Okay, the target word is "knowing," lemmatized from "know." The context is about a scared family experiencing a horrible hour "not knowing" something. My immediate interpretation is that they lacked information, specifically regarding their safety or the situation's details.

Now, let's consider the senses. I'm reviewing the candidate senses, starting with sense 1: "be cognizant or aware of a fact or a specific piece of information; possess knowledge or information about." Examples include, "I know that the President lied" or, more relevantly, "I want to know who is winning the game!" This seems promising, given the context of not having information.

Sense 2 refers to knowing how to do something, which is not applicable here. Sense 3, being aware of truth or having faith, doesn't quite fit either. Sense 4 describes familiarity with a person or object, also irrelevant. Sense 5 mentions firsthand knowledge of states, situations, etc. This is getting closer to the mark, but it's not quite a perfect fit.

The phrase "not knowing" strongly implies a lack of information or awareness. This aligns perfectly with Sense 1. The examples, like wanting to know who is winning, mirrors the family's situation of seeking critical information to alleviate their anxiety. Their "not knowing" equates to not possessing the necessary facts.

Therefore, the sense key is `know%2:31:01::`, and the appropriate sense index is 1.

**Analyzing "Started" in the Context of a Rolling Lawn**

Okay, so I'm looking at "started" in the sentence "Judy and I were in our back yard when the lawn started rolling like ocean waves." My brain immediately goes to the sense of "beginning" – that the rolling is initiating. My first instinct is to think about sense 1, *start%2:30:00::*, which is "take the first step or steps in carrying out an action." That seems promising, but I need to be rigorous. The context is: Judy and I were in our back yard when the lawn started rolling like ocean waves.

I'm thinking: is the lawn the agent here? Could it be a case of the lawn 'doing' something? Let's check the Verb Frames in WordNet for "start". My thought process is, does WordNet agree with that frame?

I quickly verify: does something 'start' VERB-ing? Let me confirm: *start%2:30:00::* has frames: Somebody ----s, Somebody ----s to INFINITIVE, Somebody ----s VERB-ing, Something ----s VERB-ing, Something is ----ing PP.

The phrase "the lawn started rolling" fits, because it does imply something 'began' to happen.

I think back to my understanding of aspectual verbs, and realize that "started rolling" is a classic example of an aspectual construction, meaning it is describing the initiation of an action that continues. This frame looks good; I'm pretty sure that fits. Is the framing of the phrase and the verb the right use? Is it 2:30:00 or a different sense?

Okay, let me eliminate the other senses.

Sense 2 (set in motion, cause to start) is transitive, and it doesn't fit the 'lawn rolling' situation. Sense 3 (leave) is completely off. Sense 4 (have a beginning in a temporal sense) seems too general; this isn't just about something *beginning* but beginning in a particular way. Sense 5 (bring into being) and 6 (get off the ground) are inappropriate too. Sense 7 (startle) is not right. Sense 8 (get going or set in motion - like an engine) is close, but still doesn't quite capture the *ongoing* nature of the action. Sense 9 is close, but the 'set in motion' is too simple; it does not account for the continued motion. Sense 10 is clearly not right, nor are senses 11, 12, 13 or 14.

I remember examples such as "it started to rain", I know that falls under sense 1. The phrase "the lawn started rolling" is the same syntactic frame: [subject] started [VERB-ing]. This is precisely the construction I'm looking for. This construction is a clear indicator that the correct interpretation is start%2:30:00::.

Okay, I'm confident. Sense 1, *start%2:30:00::*, is the best and most accurate interpretation. "take the first step or steps in carrying out an action" perfectly captures the beginning of the rolling motion. The verb frames support it, and the other senses are easily ruled out. Done.

**Analyzing the Word "Rolling"**

Okay, so I'm looking at the word "rolling" in this context: "the lawn started rolling like ocean waves." My initial thought is to consider all the possible senses of the word. Let's see... I have a whole list. There's "turn over," "wheel," "undulate" (that's interesting), "flatten," "emit a sound," "arrange," "start running," "shape," "execute a roll," "sell to," "wander," and "move side to side."

I'm immediately drawn to the senses that evoke a fluid, wave-like motion. I zero in on sense 11: "move in a wavy pattern or with a rising and falling motion," with synonyms like "undulate," "flap," and "wave." The examples provided, "The curtains undulated; the waves rolled towards the beach," seem like promising fits.

But let's be thorough. Sense 3, "occur in soft rounded shapes" (undulate again), catches my eye. However, I realize it describes a *stative* condition, like "rolling hills." This is where the context becomes critical. The description of an earthquake tremor causing the lawn to *start* rolling like ocean waves is dynamic. This is a *motion*. The lawn isn't simply *being* rolling; it's *doing* something.

Therefore, sense 11 is the clear winner. "Move in a wavy pattern or with a rising and falling motion" perfectly captures the seismic activity described. The "like ocean waves" comparison is key. It's the perfect semantic fit!

**My Analysis of "Ocean" in Context**

Okay, here's how I'm breaking this down. The target word is "ocean," and the key is "the lawn started rolling like ocean waves." My initial candidates are:

1.  **ocean%1:17:00::** – the standard, literal meaning: "a large body of water constituting a principal part of the hydrosphere." This is the obvious place to start.
2.  **ocean%1:23:00::** – This one is metaphorical; it's about something being "anything apparently limitless in quantity or volume," effectively a synonym for "sea" in a figurative sense. Think "an ocean of paperwork" – not a literal body of water.

The phrase "ocean waves" is crucial. That directly points towards waves *of* an ocean. Now, that automatically leans towards the first sense – the physical body of water. Sense 1 aligns perfectly with what's being described: the lawn is undulating, and the imagery evokes the large body of water and its characteristic waves.

So, in conclusion, it has to be sense 1. The context clearly supports the literal meaning and not the figurative one.

**Analyzing the Meaning of "Waves" in Context**

Okay, so the target word is "waves," and the context describes a lawn rolling like "ocean waves" during an earthquake. The lemma is "wave," which helps me narrow down the possible senses. My mind immediately starts sifting through the candidates, considering each potential definition: a physical ridge on a liquid's surface, a metaphorical movement or increase, a physical wave motion (physics), something that rises rapidly, a hand signal, a hairstyle, an undulating curve, an unusual weather condition, and even a member of the Navy's women's reserve.

Given the phrase "ocean waves," it's pretty clear that sense 1, "one of a series of ridges that moves across the surface of a liquid (especially across a large body of water)," is the intended meaning here. This connection is direct and unambiguous. The description of the lawn's behavior strongly suggests this physical, fluid-like motion. Thus, I'm confirming that sense index 1 is the most appropriate.

**Analyzing the Meaning of "Ran"**

Okay, so the target word is "ran," with the lemma "run," and the context is pretty clear: "Judy and I were in our back yard when the lawn started rolling like ocean waves. We ran into the house to get Mame, but the next tremor threw me in the air and bounced me as I tried to get to my feet." Right, let's break this down. First, I need to evaluate the potential senses of "run." My semantic knowledge tells me there are a few possibilities.

There's the basic physical motion, let's call it Sense 1: *move fast by using one's feet, with one foot off the ground at any given time.* That feels right as a starting point. Then, I remember Sense 2: *flee; take to one's heels; cut and run; run away.* The third possibility that springs to mind is a more general type of rapid travel: Sense 34: *travel rapidly, by any (unspecified) means.*

Now, let's apply these to the sentence. They were in the backyard, things got chaotic, and they ran *into* the house. The phrase "tried to get to my feet" in the following clause strengthens the idea that it was physical locomotion. So, does "ran" in this context mean *flee* or *move fast using feet*? Let's rule out sense 2, as they are running *into* the house to get Mame, not away from it. The examples associated with fleeing are not applicable here.

Comparing Sense 1 ("move fast by using one's feet, with one foot off the ground at any given time") to the given sentence, and the sentence with the examples provided, I can see that this aligns with the idea of physical locomotion. So, my conclusion is that Sense 1 is the most appropriate interpretation in this context. It's the standard, core meaning of the word.

**Analyzing the Meaning of "House"**

Okay, the target word is "house" within this sentence: "Judy and I were in our back yard when the lawn started rolling like ocean waves. We ran into the <t>house</t> to get Mame, but the next tremor threw me in the air and bounced me as I tried to get to my feet." My task is to determine the most fitting sense of "house" here.

First, I need to consider the potential senses, looking at the possibilities. We have: a dwelling, a business, a religious community, an audience, a legislative assembly, an aristocratic family, children's play, a sign of the zodiac, casino management, a social unit living together, a theater, or a building for shelter.

Based on the context, where they are in a backyard and then run "into the house" to get someone, the first sense – "a dwelling that serves as living quarters for one or more families" – is the clear winner. The language indicates they are going inside a residential building. No other sense fits the description of running into a house to retrieve someone. Therefore, I can confidently identify sense index 1 as the correct meaning.

**Analyzing the Usage of "Get"**

Okay, so the word in question is "get," specifically in the phrase "We ran into the house to get Mame..." My initial thought is that Mame is likely something or someone that needs to be retrieved, considering the action of running *into* the house. The context screams "fetch" or "retrieve."

I immediately jump to sense 6: "go or come after and bring or take back." The synonyms "bring," "convey," and "fetch" solidify this as a strong possibility. The definition itself seems like a perfect fit for the situation described.

Just to be thorough, I quickly scan the other possible senses, checking them against the context. Sense 1, "come into the possession of," doesn't quite fit the action of running into a house. Sense 11, "succeed in catching or seizing," also feels off. While there *could* be a chase involved, the initial implication leans towards a rescue or retrieval.

Therefore, after reviewing all the available senses, I am confident that sense index 6, "go or come after and bring or take back," is the correct interpretation here. The example perfectly aligns with the given phrase.

**Analyzing "Next" in the Context of a Seismic Event**

Okay, let's break this down. The target word is "next," and the sentence describes a sudden event—a tremor. My mind immediately jumps to the possible senses, as I've seen countless instances of this word across all sorts of use cases.

I see three potential senses, each with a different shade of meaning. The first one, "immediately following in time or order," seems like a strong contender. The second, "nearest in space or position," doesn't quite fit – tremors don't have a spatial relationship that dictates a "next" position in the way a room might. The third, relating to elected officials, is definitely out of the running. This is clearly a temporal sequence; it's a series of events.

Thinking about it more closely, "next" in "the next tremor" describes an event that happens right after another. It's the sequential nature that's key here. It's not about adjacency or future leadership; it's about the following tremor in a sequence of tremors.

Therefore, sense 1, the "immediately following in time or order" sense, is undoubtedly the correct one. The "next tremor" is the *succeeding* tremor. Case closed.

**Analyzing "Tremor" in Context**

Okay, let's break this down. My goal is to pinpoint the most accurate meaning of "tremor" in this passage. The provided context paints a pretty vivid picture: "the lawn started rolling like ocean waves," and the speaker was "thrown in the air." Those are strong indicators of seismic activity.

Looking at the candidate senses, the first one, "an involuntary vibration (as if from illness or fear)," is clearly off the mark. It implies an internal physical state, and the context describes an external, dramatic event.

Sense three, "shaking or trembling (usually resulting from weakness or stress or disease)," could *potentially* apply, but it's a general description. The key here is the scale and the external impact on the environment.

Therefore, the second sense is the most fitting. "A small earthquake" aligns perfectly with the described scenario of the lawn behaving like ocean waves and the speaker being physically displaced. The synonyms "earth tremor" and "microseism" further solidify this interpretation. Given the descriptive context, the meaning of 'small earthquake' is most salient. So, sense index 2 is the correct answer.

**Disambiguating "Threw" in the Context of a Tremor**

Okay, so I'm looking at the sentence "the next tremor threw me in the air" and trying to nail down the precise meaning of "threw." We have a whole list of potential senses to consider, ranging from the literal "propel through the air" to more figurative meanings like "confuse emotionally" or "organize." My initial instinct, given the context of a tremor, is that it's a physical action.

Let's break it down. The subject is "the next tremor." The verb is "threw." And the object is "me." The tremor is acting upon the narrator in a physically forceful way.

The obvious first candidate is sense 1: "propel through the air." That seems like a direct fit, right? The tremor is literally propelling the narrator upwards. It makes sense in terms of the world knowledge about what a tremor is.

Now, let's just make sure there isn't a better option. I briefly consider sense 2: "move violently, energetically, or carelessly," but that's typically reflexive or transitive with self or body parts, which seems slightly less likely. Let's check WordNet to verify the nuances. Nope, that's not as apt.

Then, I'm reminded of sense 1, as defined in WordNet, it is also "propel through the air".

Okay, after further reflection and checking WordNet, there is no more suitable option. Sense 1, "propel through the air," is the clear winner here. A tremor can absolutely cause that. So, I'm confident in saying that the primary meaning is the literal, physical one.

**My Analysis of "Air" in Context**

Alright, let's break this down. The target word is "air," and the context is pretty clear: "...the next tremor threw me in the <t>air</t> and bounced me as I tried to get to my feet."  Right away, I'm thinking about the different senses this could relate to, drawing on my existing semantic knowledge. I've got a few candidates to consider: the physical mixture we breathe, the space above ground, an aura or atmosphere, a breeze, "atmosphere" as a broader concept, an element, a tune, an airwave, or air travel.

The phrase "threw me in the air" is key. It implies a physical action, a displacement *upward*. That narrows things down considerably. Sense 1, the "mixture of gases required for breathing" is plausible in an abstract way but doesn't fit the physical motion. Sense 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 don't even begin to make sense in this physical context.

However, Sense 2, "the region above the ground," is a direct hit. It's the physical space one is *thrown* into. The example given, "he threw the ball into the air," is a perfect parallel. This strongly indicates the "air" being referenced is that open space above the ground, where the tremor propelled me. It is obvious, based on the context, and by comparison to the given examples.

Therefore, the appropriate sense index is 2.

**Analyzing the 'Bounced' Context**

Okay, let's break this down. We have "bounced" in this sentence: "We ran into the house to get Mame, but the next tremor threw me in the air and bounced me as I tried to get to my feet."  The goal is to pinpoint the most accurate sense of "bounced" here.

My initial thought is to consider a few candidates. Sense 1, "spring back," doesn't quite fit the context. Sense 2, "hit something so that it bounces," feels somewhat relevant, but the tremor wasn't "hitting" me in a direct, controlled way like bouncing a ball. Sense 3, "move up and down repeatedly," is starting to look promising. Then there's some finance senses and the eject sense, but those are clearly off base. And Sense 5, "leap suddenly" doesn't work either.

I need to confirm the transitivity/intransitivity of Sense 3. Can something *bounce* someone else, causing them to move up and down? Let's check WordNet. I can see that "bounce%2:38:02::" indeed has transitive frames. I remember the gloss: "move up and down repeatedly."

WordNet provides further verification. Sense 2, "bounce a ball" which is verb.contact. And Sense 3 is verb.motion and has the frame "Something bounce somebody."

So, let me think: the tremor "threw me in the air and bounced me."  Does "bounced me" equal "caused me to move up and down repeatedly"? I think so! The tremor is the "something" doing the "bouncing." "Jounce" is a perfect synonym. Consider: "The car jounced the passengers." or "The cart jounced its passengers."

So, comparing the senses of bounce again, let's recap:

*   Sense 2 is "hit something so that it bounces" (bounce a ball), which is "verb.contact." It feels less direct and doesn't exactly capture the effect of the tremor.
*   Sense 3 is "move up and down repeatedly." This is "verb.motion." This seems to be the best match. The tremor *caused* the person to move up and down repeatedly.

Therefore, after going through those steps, I'm confident that sense 3, "move up and down repeatedly", is the correct sense of "bounced" in this sentence. The tremor jounced the speaker.

**Analyzing the Meaning of "Tried"**

Okay, here's the sentence: "We ran into the house to get Mame, but the next tremor threw me in the air and bounced me as I tried to get to my feet." My immediate focus is on the word "tried" and its various potential senses. Let's break this down systematically. I see nine potential senses, as defined by the semantic analysis I have done.

I need to determine the correct sense within this specific context. Considering the surrounding words, "as I tried to get to my feet," it's clear I'm looking at an action. Sense 1, "make an effort or attempt," seems the most relevant, the tremor interrupting an attempt. This resonates with the physicality of the situation; a struggle is implied by the tremor. Sense 2 "put to the test, as for its quality, or give experimental use to" and other more specialized meanings can be ruled out. The subject, in this scenario, is struggling to regain stability, and the verb "tried" denotes the effort. I'm not testing anything, nor are we talking about a judicial process, or any of the other irrelevant senses. The context points definitively to sense 1.

**Analyzing the Meaning of "Fine"**

Okay, let's break this down. The target word is "fine," and the context is "We are all fine here, although Mame was extremely freaked. Kitchen full of broken crystal." My initial thought is to identify the most likely sense of "fine" in this context.

I see several candidate senses, but the first one jumps out immediately: sense\_key=fine%5:00:00:satisfactory:00. Its definition, "being satisfactory or in satisfactory condition," along with synonyms like "all right," "o.k.," and examples like "the passengers were shaken up but are all right," is a very strong match.

Given the broken crystal and Mame's freak-out, "fine" clearly means that, despite the chaos and likely emotional distress, everyone is *physically* unhurt and *situationally* okay. It's not a precise measurement (sense 2), nor is it about thinness (sense 3), elegance (sense 4), a payment, (sense 5) or purity (sense 6). Therefore, I'm confident that sense 1, associated with index 1, is the correct interpretation.
