Target lemma: worker
Target surface form: workers
Context:
These national studies will form the basis of a European report which synthesises overall practices. The report and a casebook of initiatives will be published in 1996 and provide the backdrop for a conference to be staged in Autumn, 1996. The Foundation aims to document the characteristics of age barriers in job recruitment and training and to analyse their causes. The perspectives of the social partners is also being examined, with particular attention paid to proposals for removing age barriers. Thirdly, the project documents and assesses initiatives, in both the public and private sectors which combat age barriers, especially for older workers. Seeking alternatives to early retirement and redundancy, the project is primarily concerned with the retention, reintegration and retraining of older <t>workers</t>. The gender and ethnic backgrounds of workers and how these relate to age discrimination are examined.

reasoning_content:
The target word is "workers" in the context of a European report on age barriers in job recruitment and training, specifically referring to "older workers" and "retention, reintegration and retraining of older workers". The context also mentions "gender and ethnic backgrounds of workers and how these relate to age discrimination".

Sense 1: "a person who works at a specific occupation" - example "he is a good worker"
Sense 2: "a member of the working class (not necessarily employed)" - synonyms proletarian, prole - example "workers of the world--unite!"
Sense 3: sterile member of a colony of social insects
Sense 4: "a person who acts and gets things done" - synonyms actor, doer

The context is about employed people, specifically older workers in the context of employment, recruitment, training, retention, reintegration, and retraining. This is about people who work at occupations/jobs.

Sense 1 refers to "a person who works at a specific occupation" - this fits the context of people who are employed or seeking employment.

Sense 2 refers to "a member of the working class (not necessarily employed)" - this is more of a Marxist/class-based sense, with the example "workers of the world--unite!" This doesn't fit as well because the context is specifically about employment practices, age barriers in recruitment, training, retention, reintegration, and retraining - not about class struggle or the working class as a social category.

The context discusses "older workers" in relation to "job recruitment and training," "early retirement and redundancy," "retention, reintegration and retraining." This is clearly about people who work at occupations, not about the working class as a political/social category.

Sense 1 seems like the best fit - "a person who works at a specific occupation."

Wait, let me reconsider. The context mentions "age barriers in job recruitment" and "older workers" - these are people who are employed or seeking employment. Sense 1 says "a person who works at a specific occupation" which fits. Sense 2 says "a member of the working class (not necessarily employed)" which is more about social class.

I'll go with sense 1.

reasoning_content:
The context is about workers, their gender and ethnic backgrounds, and how these relate to age discrimination.
The target word "gender" refers to the biological/social distinction between male and female (as opposed to grammatical gender).
Sense 2 matches this: "the properties that distinguish organisms on the basis of their reproductive roles" with synonyms "sex, sexuality".
Sense 1 is about grammatical category, which is incorrect here.

Therefore, the best indexed sense is 2.

The context is: "The gender and ethnic backgrounds of workers and how these relate to age discrimination are examined."

Here, "backgrounds" refers to workers' gender and ethnic backgrounds — their social heritage, previous experience, training, ethnicity, etc. This fits sense 1: "a person's social heritage: previous experience or training."

The example for sense 1 is "he is a lawyer with a sports background," which is about a person's background. The context talks about "gender and ethnic backgrounds of workers," which is about their social heritage/identity.

Sense 1 is the best fit.

reasoning_content:
The context discusses "workers" in the context of employment, job recruitment, training, early retirement, redundancy, retention, reintegration, and retraining. The target sentence is: "The gender and ethnic backgrounds of workers and how these relate to age discrimination are examined."

Sense 1: "a person who works at a specific occupation" - This fits well as it refers to people who work in jobs/occupations.

Sense 2: "a member of the working class (not necessarily employed)" - This is more about social class, with the example "workers of the world--unite!" This is more Marxist/social class terminology.

Sense 3: Sterile member of a colony of social insects - Not applicable.

Sense 4: "a person who acts and gets things done" - This is more about being proactive/active, not specifically about employment.

The context is clearly about employed people in jobs - recruitment, training, retirement, redundancy, retention, reintegration. So sense 1 "a person who works at a specific occupation" is the best fit.

Wait, let me reconsider. The context mentions "older workers" and discusses employment-related issues. Sense 1 says "a person who works at a specific occupation" which fits well.

Sense 2 mentions "not necessarily employed" which doesn't quite fit since the context is about people in the workforce, though some may be seeking reintegration. But the primary meaning here is about people who work in occupations, not about social class.

I'll go with sense 1.

reasoning_content:
The target word is "relate" in the sentence: "The gender and ethnic backgrounds of workers and how these relate to age discrimination are examined."

The context is about examining how gender and ethnic backgrounds connect to age discrimination.

Let me look at the candidate senses:

1. make a logical or causal connection - synonyms: associate, tie in, link, colligate, link up, connect - examples: "I cannot connect these two pieces of evidence in my mind"
2. be relevant to - synonyms: refer, pertain, concern, come to, bear on, touch - examples: "There were lots of questions referring to her talk"
3. give an account of - examples: "The witness related the events"
4. be in a relationship with - synonyms: interrelate - examples: "How are these two observations related?"
5. have or establish a relationship to - examples: "She relates well to her peers"

The sentence is asking how gender and ethnic backgrounds relate to age discrimination. This is about how these factors connect or interrelate with age discrimination.

Sense 4 seems like a strong candidate: "be in a relationship with" with the example "How are these two observations related?" This is very similar to the context - "how these relate to age discrimination."

Sense 1 is about making a logical or causal connection, which could also fit, but it seems more active (like someone making a connection).

Sense 2 is about being relevant to, which could work but seems more about pertinence.

The sentence structure "how these relate to age discrimination" is very similar to "How are these two observations related?" from sense 4. The context is about examining the relationship between gender/ethnic backgrounds and age discrimination.

I think sense 4 is the best fit here. The question is about how gender and ethnic backgrounds interrelate with age discrimination - examining the relationship between these factors.

Actually, let me reconsider. Sense 1 is "make a logical or causal connection" which is also about connecting things. The context says these things are being "examined" - so the project is examining how gender and ethnic backgrounds connect to age discrimination.

But sense 4 with "be in a relationship with" and the example "How are these two observations related?" seems to match the structure "how these relate to age discrimination" very closely.

I'll go with sense 4.

reasoning_content:
The context is about "age barriers", "age discrimination", and "older workers". The target word is in "how these relate to age discrimination".

Looking at the candidate senses:
1. "how long something has existed" - e.g., "it was replaced because of its age"
2. "an era of history having some distinctive feature" - e.g., "we live in a litigious age"
3. "a time of life (usually defined in years) at which some particular qualification or power arises" - e.g., "she was now of school age"
4. "a prolonged period of time" - e.g., "we've known each other for ages"
5. "a late time of life" - e.g., "old age is not for sissies"

The context is about age discrimination, age barriers in job recruitment, older workers, early retirement. "Age discrimination" here refers to discrimination based on a person's age (how old they are).

Sense 1 "how long something has existed" could apply to people (how long they've been alive = their age). But it's more general.

Sense 3 "a time of life (usually defined in years) at which some particular qualification or power arises" - this is about specific ages like school age, voting age, drinking age. "Age discrimination" isn't about a specific threshold age.

Sense 5 "a late time of life" - old age. The context is about older workers, but "age discrimination" as a phrase refers to discrimination based on age generally, not just old age. However, the context does heavily emphasize older workers.

Actually, "age discrimination" as a legal/social concept is discrimination based on a person's age. In the context, it's about older workers and age barriers.

Sense 1 is "how long something has existed" which is the basic meaning of age as a number (your age = how long you've existed). "Age discrimination" = discrimination based on how long someone has existed (their age).

Sense 3 is about a specific time of life where a qualification arises. That's not quite right for "age discrimination" which is a general concept.

Sense 5 is "a late time of life" / old age. While the context focuses on older workers, "age discrimination" as a term encompasses the concept of age as a characteristic, not specifically "old age."

Hmm, but let me reconsider. The context says "age barriers", "age discrimination", "older workers", "early retirement". The project is "primarily concerned with the retention, reintegration and retraining of older workers." So the context is specifically about older people in the workforce.

But "age discrimination" as a phrase - "age" here refers to the characteristic of age, i.e., how old someone is. That maps best to sense 1 "how long something has existed" because age discrimination is based on how long a person has existed (their chronological age).

Actually, I need to think about this more carefully. In "age discrimination," "age" is being used as a modifier meaning "based on age" or "relating to age." The core sense of "age" here is the general concept of how old someone is, which is sense 1.

But wait - sense 3 "a time of life (usually defined in years) at which some particular qualification or power arises" with examples like "school age" - this is also a common use. But "age discrimination" isn't about a specific qualifying age.

Sense 5 "a late time of life" - the context is heavily about older workers. But "age discrimination" as a phrase isn't limited to old age; it's about age in general.

I think sense 1 is the best fit. "Age" in "age discrimination" refers to the person's age - how long they have existed. The discrimination is based on that attribute.

Let me reconsider once more. The phrase "age barriers" and "age discrimination" - here "age" is functioning as a noun used attributively (as a modifier). The underlying sense is "how long something has existed" - i.e., a person's chronological age.

I'll go with sense 1.

The target word is "examined" in the context: "The gender and ethnic backgrounds of workers and how these relate to age discrimination are examined."

The context is about a research project that documents, analyzes, and assesses various aspects of age barriers and discrimination. The word "examined" here means to study or analyze in detail.

Looking at the candidates:
1. examine%2:31:00:: - consider in detail and subject to an analysis in order to discover essential features or meaning (synonyms: analyze, analyse, study, canvass, canvas)

5. examine%2:41:00:: - put to the test, as for its quality, or give experimental use to (synonyms: test, prove, try, try out, essay)

The context is about a research project analyzing and studying the relationship between gender/ethnic backgrounds and age discrimination. This aligns with sense 1: "consider in detail and subject to an analysis in order to discover essential features or meaning" with synonyms like "analyze, analyse, study."

The project "aims to document... and to analyse their causes" and "documents and assesses initiatives." The use of "examined" here is synonymous with "analyze" or "study" - it's about researching and analyzing the relationship between gender/ethnic backgrounds and age discrimination.

Sense 1 is the best fit.

reasoning_content:
The target word is "considers" in the sentence: "The project also considers initiatives to combat age discrimination in rural areas and in small and medium sized enterprises."

Let me analyze the context. The project is documenting, analyzing, assessing, and examining various aspects of age barriers and discrimination. The project "also considers initiatives to combat age discrimination" - this means the project is looking at, studying, or examining these initiatives.

Let me look at the candidate senses:

1. consider%2:31:00:: - deem to be (She views this quite differently from me; I consider her to be shallow) - This doesn't fit because it's about deeming/judging something to be a certain way.

2. consider%2:39:00:: - give careful consideration to (consider the possibility of moving) - This could fit, as the project is giving careful consideration to initiatives.

3. consider%2:31:01:: - take into consideration for exemplifying purposes (Take the case of China; Consider the following case) - This doesn't fit; it's about using something as an example.

4. consider%2:32:00:: - show consideration for; take into account (You must consider her age; The judge considered the offender's youth and was lenient) - This is about taking something into account as a factor.

5. consider%2:32:02:: - think about carefully; weigh (They considered the possibility of a strike; Turn the proposal over in your mind) - This is about deliberating/weighing options.

6. consider%2:31:08:: - judge or regard; look upon; judge (I think he is very smart; I believe her to be very smart) - This is about believing/judging someone to be something.

7. consider%2:39:04:: - look at attentively (regard) - This could fit in a general sense.

8. consider%2:39:08:: - look at carefully; study mentally (view a problem) - This could fit, as the project is studying these initiatives.

9. consider%2:31:05:: - regard or treat with consideration, respect, and esteem (Please consider your family) - This doesn't fit.

The context is about a research project that documents, assesses, and examines initiatives. The project "also considers initiatives to combat age discrimination" - this means the project is studying/examining these initiatives as part of its research.

Sense 2 (give careful consideration to) with synonym "study" and example "consider the possibility of moving" seems to fit well. The project is giving careful consideration to (studying) these initiatives.

Sense 8 (look at carefully; study mentally) with synonyms "view, look at" and example "view a problem" also could fit.

Let me think more carefully. The project "documents and assesses initiatives" and "also considers initiatives." The word "considers" here seems to mean the project is examining/studying these initiatives as part of its work.

Sense 2: "give careful consideration to" with synonym "study" - This seems to be the best fit. The project is studying/examining these initiatives.

Sense 8: "look at carefully; study mentally" - This also could work, but it's more about mental study/contemplation rather than systematic research.

Given that the context is about a research project that systematically documents, assesses, and examines various aspects, sense 2 "give careful consideration to" (synonym: study) seems most appropriate. The project is giving careful consideration to (studying) initiatives to combat age discrimination.

Actually, let me reconsider. The sentence says "The project also considers initiatives to combat age discrimination in rural areas and in small and medium sized enterprises." This is describing what the project does - it examines/studies these initiatives.

Sense 2 seems like the best fit: "give careful consideration to" with synonym "study."

Let me also check sense 4: "show consideration for; take into account" - This is about taking something into account as a factor, like considering someone's age. The project isn't taking these initiatives into account as a factor; it's studying them.

I'll go with sense 2.

reasoning_content:
The context is "small and medium sized enterprises" (SMEs). This refers to businesses that are limited in size or scope. The phrase "small and medium sized enterprises" is a standard term for businesses categorized by their size.

Sense 2: definition="limited in size or scope" | synonyms=minor, modest, small-scale, pocket-size, pocket-sized | examples="a small business; a newspaper with a modest circulation"

This fits perfectly. "small and medium sized enterprises" refers to businesses limited in size. The example "a small business" directly matches.

Sense 1 is more general "limited or below average in number or quantity or magnitude or extent" with examples about dining rooms and houses.

Sense 2 specifically mentions "a small business" as an example and defines it as "limited in size or scope", which aligns with "small and medium sized enterprises".

I'll choose sense 2.

reasoning_content:
The target word is "Public" in the phrase "European Public Assessment Report."

Sense 1: not private; open to or concerning the people as a whole | examples: the public good; public libraries
Sense 2: affecting the people or community as a whole | examples: community leaders; community interests

The phrase "European Public Assessment Report" (EPAR) is a document that is made available to the public - it's not private, it's open to or concerning the people as a whole. The document is a summary that explains how the committee assessed studies. This is about making information available to the general public.

Sense 1 seems more appropriate because "Public" here means the report is not private - it's open to or concerning the people as a whole. A "public assessment report" is one that is published and available to everyone, as opposed to a confidential or private assessment.

Sense 2 is more about something that affects the community, like "community interests" or "community leaders."

The "Public" in "Public Assessment Report" means it's available to the public (not private), so sense 1 is the best fit.

reasoning_content:
The context is about "Medicinal Products for Veterinary Use (CVMP)". Here, "products" refers to medicinal products, which are commodities or artifacts created by some process. Let me think about which sense fits best.

Sense 1: commodities offered for sale - "merchandise, ware"
Sense 2: an artifact that has been created by someone or some process - "production"

In the context of "Medicinal Products for Veterinary Use," this refers to medicines/drugs that have been created through a manufacturing process and are offered for use/sale.

"Medicinal products" is a regulatory term in the EU for medications. These are artifacts created by some process (pharmaceutical manufacturing). They are also commodities offered for sale. But the term "medicinal products" in regulatory context refers to the manufactured items themselves - the artifacts created by a process.

Sense 2 says "an artifact that has been created by someone or some process" with examples like "they improve their product every year." This seems to fit well with medicinal products that are manufactured.

Sense 1 says "commodities offered for sale" with synonyms "merchandise, ware." While medicinal products are sold, the regulatory context focuses on them as manufactured items rather than as commodities for sale.

I think sense 2 is the better fit here, as "medicinal products" refers to pharmaceutical preparations created through a manufacturing process, which aligns with "an artifact that has been created by someone or some process."

Actually, let me reconsider. The CVMP assesses medicines - these are products in the sense of manufactured goods. Sense 2 with "an artifact that has been created by someone or some process" seems most appropriate.

I'll go with sense 2.

The target word is "Use" in the phrase "Committee for Medicinal Products for Veterinary Use (CVMP)".

Context: "This document is a summary of the European Public Assessment Report. It explains how the Committee for Medicinal Products for Veterinary Use (CVMP) assessed the studies performed, to reach their recommendations on how to use the medicine."

The phrase "Veterinary Use" means the purpose or function for which medicinal products are applied (for animals).

Let's look at the senses:
1. sense_key=use%1:04:00:: | the act of using
2. sense_key=use%1:07:00:: | what something is used for | function, purpose, role
3. sense_key=use%1:07:02:: | a particular service
4. sense_key=use%1:22:00:: | (economics) the utilization of economic goods
5. sense_key=use%1:04:01:: | (psychology) an automatic pattern of behavior
6. sense_key=use%1:04:02:: | exerting shrewd or devious influence
7. sense_key=use%1:07:03:: | (law) the exercise of the legal right

"Veterinary Use" refers to what the medicinal products are used for (i.e., their purpose, role, function).
Therefore, sense 2 is the best fit.

Let's check the synonyms for sense 2: function, purpose, role.
"Veterinary purpose", "Veterinary function".
This makes perfect sense.

Is it the act of using (sense 1)? "Committee for Medicinal Products for the Veterinary act of using" - not quite as fitting as purpose.
Actually, "use" in "veterinary use" means the application or purpose. So sense 2.

Wait, is there any other possibility?
Sense 2: "what something is used for". Examples: "ballet is beautiful but what use is it?".

Let's double check. "Use" in "Veterinary Use" -> "what something is used for". "Veterinary" describes the use. So sense 2.

I will output {"sense_index": 2}.

The context is about a committee assessing studies performed to reach recommendations on how to use medicine. This is about evaluating the nature, quality, or significance of studies.

Sense 1: evaluate or estimate the nature, quality, ability, extent, or significance of - this fits perfectly. The committee evaluated the studies.

Sense 2: charge with a payment - doesn't fit
Sense 3: set the amount of a payment - doesn't fit
Sense 4: estimate value of property for taxation - doesn't fit

The answer is sense 1.

reasoning_content:
The context is "the studies performed" - this means the studies that were carried out or conducted. This aligns with sense 1 (carry out or perform an action) or sense 4 (get something done).

Sense 1: carry out or perform an action - "John did the painting", "the skater executed a triple pirouette"
Sense 4: get (something) done - "I did my job"

"Studies performed" = studies that were carried out/conducted. This is about performing/carrying out an action (the studies). Sense 1 seems most appropriate with synonyms like "execute" and "do".

Sense 4 is more about getting something done/accomplished, like completing a job. Sense 1 is more about carrying out an action, which fits "studies performed" better.

I'll go with sense 1.
