Target lemma: entrance
Target surface form: entrance
Context:
Inside the lobby, people were standing around, talking excitedly. His spine crawled with a foreboding premonition as he asked one of his fellow tenants what had happened. The landlord had died. Late that afternoon, it seemed, he had fallen off the roof while on some obscure errand or inspection. He had apparently been alone. Nobody witnessed the fall -- just the sickening impact when his body smashed on the pavement just outside the basement delivery <t>entrance</t>. Haney hoped that nobody noticed his sudden pallor, as he felt the blood drain from his cheeks.

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=entrance%1:06:00:: | definition=something that provides access (to get in or get out) | synonyms=entranceway, entryway, entry, entree | examples=they waited at the entrance to the garden; beggars waited just outside the entryway to the cathedral

reasoning_content: The user wants me to disambiguate "entrance" in the context. The phrase is "basement delivery entrance" - this refers to a physical doorway/opening that provides access to the basement for deliveries. That's clearly sense 1: something that provides access (to get in or get out). Not a movement into or the act of entering. Answer JSON {"sense_index": 1}.

4. Return only a JSON object exactly like {"sense_index": 3}.

reasoning_content:
The user wants me to disambiguate "deliberate" in context. The phrase is "walked with deliberate slowness to the elevator."

Sense 1: carefully thought out in advance (intended) - calculated, planned
Sense 2: unhurried and with care and dignity - careful, measured

"Deliberate slowness" - walking slowly on purpose/with care. The context: Haney is shaken, trying to compose himself, walking slowly to avoid drawing attention. "Deliberate slowness" emphasizes the unhurried, careful, measured pace. This matches sense 2 better - "unhurried and with care." The example "with all deliberate speed" and "measured pace" aligns with "deliberate slowness."

While there is an element of intention (he's deliberately going slow to not seem suspicious), the phrase "deliberate slowness" specifically describes the manner/pace - unhurried, measured. Sense 2 is the best fit.

reasoning_content:
The target word "feel" in context: "After a while he began to feel better about it". This is about emotional state - feeling better (emotionally) about the situation.

Sense 1: undergo an emotional sensation or be in a particular state of mind - examples "She felt resentful; He felt regret" - this is emotional state.
Sense 4: be conscious of a physical, mental, or emotional state - examples "I feel fine today; She felt tired" - this is more about being in a state (physical/mental/emotional condition).

"feel better about it" - feeling better emotionally/psychologically regarding the incident. The phrase "about it" suggests an emotional attitude toward something. Sense 1 is "undergo an emotional sensation or be in a particular state of mind" with examples like felt resentful, felt regret. "Feel better about it" = have a better emotional state regarding it.

Sense 4 examples: "I feel fine today" (physical health), "felt tired" (physical). The distinction: sense 1 is emotional sensation (resentful, regret), sense 4 is conscious of state (fine, tired). "Feel better about it" is comparative emotional improvement regarding an event - more aligned with sense 1's emotional state of mind.

Actually "feel better" could be sense 4 (feel fine/tired pattern - be conscious of a state). But "better about it" specifically emotional reassurance. The "about it" preposition indicates an emotional response/attitude toward the event, matching sense 1 (particular state of mind). Sense 1 examples are adjectives of emotion (resentful, regret). "Better" here is emotional well-being concerning "it".

Between 1 and 4: Sense 4 is "be conscious of a physical, mental, or emotional state" — "I feel fine" — this fits "feel better" structurally (feel + adjective of condition). But sense 1 is undergo an emotional sensation / particular state of mind — felt resentful/regret.

"feel better about it" - he began to experience less guilt/anxiety. This is an emotional sensation about something. I'd lean sense 1 because "about it" marks emotional attitude toward object, like "feel regret about". However "better" is a state not a specific emotion.

WordNet: feel%2:37:00 (experience) gloss "undergo an emotional sensation or be in a particular state of mind" examples: "She felt resentful"; "He felt regret". feel%2:29:00 gloss "be conscious of a physical, mental, or emotional state" examples "My cold is gone--I feel fine today"; "She felt tired after the long hike".

"He began to feel better about it" = his emotional/mental state improved. The "about it" frames it as an emotional response to the event, closer to sense 1's state of mind. But "feel better" alone is like "feel fine" (sense 4). The addition "about it" is key — feeling better *regarding* the situation = emotional state of mind about it.

I think the best is sense 1: undergo an emotional sensation / be in a particular state of mind. "Feel better about it" = be in a better state of mind regarding it. Answer 1.

reasoning_content: The context: "the man had no family, so no one suffered". This means the landlord had no relatives/kin who would suffer from his death. The best sense is primary social group; parents and children (sense 2), or possibly kin (sense 5). "Had no family" typically means no wife/children or close relatives. Sense 2 "primary social group; parents and children" fits best — starting a family, having a family. Sense 4 (descended from common ancestor) is more extended kin. The phrase "had no family" most naturally maps to sense 2 — family unit (parents and children). Answer: 2.

The user wants me to perform word sense disambiguation for "kills" in the context "nobody kills a man just as a favor!!"

The context is about someone dying (the landlord), and Haney convincing himself it was an accident. The phrase "nobody kills a man just as a favor" refers to intentionally causing someone's death. This is clearly sense 1: cause to die; put to death, usually intentionally or knowingly.

The example "This man killed several people when he tried to rob a bank" matches the intentional killing of a person.

Sense 9 (deprive of life) is more general, often used for diseases. Sense 10 is without intention. Here "just as a favor" implies intention/knowing, so sense 1 is best.

Answer: {"sense_index": 1}

reasoning_content:
The target "man" in "nobody kills a man just as a favor". Here man refers to an adult male person, specifically the landlord? Let's analyze context: Haney rid of lousy landlord. "After all, the man had no family" refers landlord adult male. Then "nobody kills a man just as a favor" generic? It means no one kills a person (an adult male/human) just as favor. Need choose between sense 1 adult male vs sense 4 human being vs sense 3 generic use. The phrase "a man" singular indefinite in idiomatic "nobody kills a man" refers to any person? Context earlier "the man had no family" = landlord male. The sentence "nobody kills a man just as a favor" likely means "nobody kills a person" generic, but surface "a man" in English often means an adult male. Need fine-grained WSD.

We have candidate senses. In context: "Really, he said to himself, nobody kills a man just as a favor!!" He's rationalizing the stranger didn't kill landlord as favor. The object of killing is the landlord, an adult male. "a man" genericized? The phrase "kills a man" commonly means kills a human being (esp in legal/literary), e.g., "kill a man" = homicide. But with indefinite article and no gender emphasis, could be sense 4 homo/human. However sense 3 is generic use of word to refer to any human being, examples "it was every man for himself" (no article, generic). Sense 4 is any member Hominidae.

reasoning_content: The sentence: "So you thought I didn't mean what I said." Meaning "you believed/supposed I didn't mean what I said." The target is "thought" = believed/supposed. Candidate 2 expect, believe, or suppose fits. Candidate 1 judge/regard also believe. Need choose best. In context, "you thought I didn't mean what I said" = you supposed/assumed. That's sense 2 (expect, believe, or suppose). Sense 1 is judge or regard with examples "I think he is very smart". "You thought I didn't mean it" is more suppose/imagine. Answer index 2.
