Target lemma: wait
Target surface form: waiting
Context:
KIM: I got home, let the dogs into the house and noticed some sounds above my head, as if someone were walking on the roof, or upstairs. Then I noticed the car was bouncing up and down as if someone were jumping on it. I realized what was happening and screamed into the house for the dogs. Cupboard doors were flying, the trash can in the kitchen walked a few feet, the dogs came running, and I scooted them into the dog run and stood in the doorway myself, watching the outside trash cans dance across the concrete. When I realized it was over, I went and stood out in front of the house, <t>waiting</t> and praying for Merrill to come home, shivering as if it were 20 below zero until he got there. Never in my life have I been so frightened.

    *   Context: "...waiting and <t>praying</t> for Merrill to come home, shivering as if it were 20 below zero until he got there."
    *   Candidate senses:
        1.  `pray%2:32:00::`: address a deity, a prophet, a saint or an object of worship; say a prayer.
        2.  `pray%2:32:01::`: call upon in supplication; entreat (synonyms: beg, implore).

    *   The speaker is in a state of extreme fear ("Never in my life have I been so frightened").
    *   They are waiting for someone (Merrill) to come home.
    *   "Praying for Merrill to come home" expresses a strong desire or hope for a specific outcome during a crisis.

    *   Sense 1 focuses on the *act* of religious communication (addressing a deity).
    *   Sense 2 focuses on the *desire/supplication* (begging, imploring, hoping intensely).

    *   While "praying" often involves a deity, in the phrase "praying for [someone] to [do something]," it frequently functions as a strong expression of hope or a plea (supplication), even if not explicitly directed at a god in the ritualistic sense.
    *   However, looking at the options:
        *   Sense 1: "address a deity... say a prayer"
        *   Sense 2: "call upon in supplication; entreat"
    *   In the context "praying for Merrill to come home," the speaker is expressing a desperate wish/plea.
    *   Comparing "saying a prayer" (Sense 1) vs "entreating/begging" (Sense 2).
    *   Usually, "praying for [something to happen]" can be either. But "entreat" (Sense 2) often implies asking a person. "Praying for [someone] to come home" is more of a general plea/hope.
    *   Wait, let's look at the synonyms for Sense 2: "beg, implore".
    *   Let's look at Sense 1 again: "address a deity... say a prayer".
    *   In common usage, "praying for X" is the standard way to describe the act of asking a higher power for X.
    *   However, "entreat" (Sense 2) is often used for "I pray you to consider..." (archaic) or "begging".
    *   In this specific context ("waiting and praying for Merrill to come home"), the speaker is likely engaging in the act of prayer (Sense 1) or expressing a desperate hope (which aligns with the "supplication" part of Sense 2).
    *   Let's re-evaluate "supplication". Supplication is the action of asking or begging for something earnestly or humbly.
    *   If the speaker is "praying for Merrill to come home," they are supplicating.
    *   Is it "addressing a deity" (Sense 1) or "entreating" (Sense 2)?
    *   Usually, "pray for [something]" is categorized under the religious sense unless it's "I pray you" (meaning "I beg you").
    *   Example for Sense 2: "I beg you to stop!" (Direct address to a person).
    *   Example for Sense 1: "pray to the Lord".
    *   "Praying for Merrill to come home" is not "praying to Merrill". It's praying *for* him. This is the act of saying a prayer or addressing a deity for a specific outcome.

    *   Sense 1: Religious act/addressing deity.
    *   Sense 2: Begging/imploring (usually a person).
    *   The context "praying for Merrill to come home" fits the pattern of a prayer (Sense 1) rather than begging Merrill himself to come home (which would be "praying Merrill to come home" or "begging Merrill to come home").

    *   Wait, let me double-check. "Pray for" is almost always Sense 1 (religious/spiritual hope). "Pray [someone] to [do something]" is Sense 2 (entreat).
    *   Context: "praying for Merrill to come home".
    *   This is a request for a result, typically directed at a higher power.

    *   Sense 1: address a deity... say a prayer.
    *   Sense 2: call upon in supplication; entreat.
    *   If I say "I'm praying for rain," I'm not entreating the rain; I'm saying a prayer for rain.
    *   If I say "I pray you'll forgive me," I'm entreating you.
    *   "Praying for Merrill to come home" $\rightarrow$ Sense 1.

Target lemma: life
Target surface form: life
Context:
I got home, let the dogs into the house and noticed some sounds above my head, as if someone were walking on the roof, or upstairs. Then I noticed the car was bouncing up and down as if someone were jumping on it. I realized what was happening and screamed into the house for the dogs. Cupboard doors were flying, the trash can in the kitchen walked a few feet, the dogs came running, and I scooted them into the dog run and stood in the doorway myself, watching the outside trash cans dance across the concrete. When I realized it was over, I went and stood out in front of the house, waiting and praying for Merrill to come home, shivering as if it were 20 below zero until he got there. Never in my <t>life</t> have I been so frightened. When I saw the pictures of 880 and the Bay Bridge, I began to cry.

    *   Sense 9: "the period between birth and the present time" (Example: "I have known him all his life").
    *   Context: "Never in my life have I been so frightened."
    *   This is a classic usage of "in my life" to mean "in all the time I have been alive up to now."

    *   Sense 10 is "the period during which something is functional (as between birth and death)". While similar, Sense 9 specifically targets the "birth to present" aspect often used in phrases like "in my life" or "all my life".

    *   Sense 9 is the best fit.

    In the sentence "When I saw the pictures...", the speaker is describing the act of perceiving the images with their eyes. This is the most basic sense of "see".

    Let's re-evaluate Sense 12 vs Sense 14.
    Sense 14 is the most general "perceive by sight".
    Sense 12 is more about "watching" (like a movie or a game).
    Looking at pictures is generally "perceiving by sight" (Sense 14).

    Wait, let me check Sense 7: "observe as if with an eye" (Example: "The camera saw the burglary"). This is for non-human entities.

    Let's look at Sense 14 again: "perceive by sight or have the power to perceive by sight". This fits perfectly.

    *   Context: "When I saw the pictures..."
    *   Sense 14: "perceive by sight".
    *   This is the most direct and accurate fit.

    *   Context: The narrator describes a frightening experience (likely an earthquake, given the bouncing car, dancing trash cans, and mention of "880 and the Bay Bridge"). The final sentence is: "When I saw the pictures of 880 and the Bay Bridge, I began to cry."

    *   Sense 1: Painting (artistic composition with paints).
    *   Sense 2: Photograph (recorded by a camera on light-sensitive material).
    *   Sense 3: Situation treated as an observable object (e.g., political picture).

    *   Sense 5: Visual representation (general term: image, icon).
    *   Sense 6: Mental image.
    *   Sense 7: Verbal description.
    *   Sense 8: Illustrations in a text.
    *   Sense 9: Television transmission (video).
    *   Sense 10: Typical example of a state/quality.

    *   The narrator is talking about seeing images of "880 and the Bay Bridge" (likely referring to I-880 and the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge) after a disaster.
    *   In the context of news reporting after a disaster (like an earthquake), "pictures" almost always refers to photographs or news images.
    *   Sense 2 (photograph) is more specific than Sense 5 (visual representation).
    *   Sense 5 is a hypernym for Sense 2.
    *   Looking at the examples for Sense 5: "they showed us the pictures of their wedding". This is very similar to "pictures of 880 and the Bay Bridge".
    *   Looking at the examples for Sense 2: "a representation of a person or scene... recorded by a camera".
    *   Usually, in these WSD tasks, if the context strongly implies a photograph (which it does here—news photos of bridge damage), Sense 2 is the most precise fit.

    *   Sense 2: "a representation of a person or scene in the form of a print or transparent slide; recorded by a camera on light-sensitive material" (Synonyms: photograph, photo).
    *   Sense 5: "a visual representation (of an object or scene or person or abstraction) produced on a surface" (Synonyms: image, icon).
    *   The "pictures of 880 and the Bay Bridge" are almost certainly photographs of the damage.

    *   Sense 2 is the standard meaning for "pictures" when referring to photographic images of a real-world event/location.

    *   Sense 1: No (not paintings).
    *   Sense 3: No (not a "political picture").
    *   Sense 4: No (not movies).
    *   Sense 6: No (not mental images).
    *   Sense 7: No (not verbal descriptions).
    *   Sense 8: No (not specifically illustrations in a text, though they could be in a newspaper, the primary meaning is the image itself).
    *   Sense 9: No (not the TV signal).
    *   Sense 10: No (not "the picture of despair").

    *   Sense 2 is the most accurate.

Target lemma: cry
Target surface form: cry
Context:
Then I noticed the car was bouncing up and down as if someone were jumping on it. I realized what was happening and screamed into the house for the dogs. Cupboard doors were flying, the trash can in the kitchen walked a few feet, the dogs came running, and I scooted them into the dog run and stood in the doorway myself, watching the outside trash cans dance across the concrete. When I realized it was over, I went and stood out in front of the house, waiting and praying for Merrill to come home, shivering as if it were 20 below zero until he got there. Never in my life have I been so frightened. When I saw the pictures of 880 and the Bay Bridge, I began to <t>cry</t>. 5:09 a.m.

Candidate senses:

2. sense_key=cry%2:32:01:: | definition=utter a sudden loud cry | synonyms=shout, shout out, call, yell, scream, holler | examples=she cried with pain when the doctor inserted the needle; I yelled to her from the window but she couldn't hear me
3. sense_key=cry%2:29:00:: | definition=shed tears because of sadness, rage, or pain | synonyms=weep | examples=She cried bitterly when she heard the news of his death; The girl in the wheelchair wept with frustration when she could not get up the stairs
4. sense_key=cry%2:29:02:: | definition=bring into a particular state by crying | examples=The little boy cried himself to sleep
5. sense_key=cry%2:34:00:: | definition=demand immediate action | examples=This situation is crying for attention

*   Target lemma: "cry"
    *   Target surface form: "cry"
    *   Context: "When I saw the pictures of 880 and the Bay Bridge, I began to <t>cry</t>."
    *   Surrounding context: The narrator describes a frightening experience (likely an earthquake, given the bouncing car, dancing trash cans, and mentions of "880" and the "Bay Bridge"). They were "so frightened" and then saw pictures of the damage, leading them to "cry".

    *   Sense 1: utter aloud; often with surprise, horror, or joy (exclaim).
    *   Sense 2: utter a sudden loud cry (shout, yell).
    *   Sense 3: shed tears because of sadness, rage, or pain (weep).
    *   Sense 4: bring into a particular state by crying (e.g., cried himself to sleep).
    *   Sense 5: demand immediate action (e.g., crying for attention).
    *   Sense 6: proclaim or announce in public (town crier).
    *   Sense 7: utter a characteristic sound (animal sound).

    *   The narrator is reacting emotionally to seeing pictures of destruction (880 and the Bay Bridge) after a terrifying event.
    *   "Began to cry" in this emotional context almost always means shedding tears (weeping).
    *   Sense 3 specifically defines "shed tears because of sadness, rage, or pain" and lists "weep" as a synonym. This fits perfectly.

    *   Sense 1 and 2 are about shouting/exclaiming. While the narrator screamed earlier ("screamed into the house"), the act of "beginning to cry" after seeing pictures of disaster is typically an expression of grief or shock through tears.
    *   Senses 4, 5, 6, and 7 are clearly incorrect.

    *   Candidate senses:
        1.  `evening%1:28:00::`: the latter part of the day (decreasing daylight from late afternoon until nightfall).
        2.  `evening%1:28:02::`: the early part of night (from dinner until bedtime) spent in a special way.
        3.  `evening%1:28:01::`: a later concluding time period (e.g., evening of the Roman Empire).

    *   The sentence describes a scene in the Sunset District that felt like a "pajama party all evening."
    *   People and dogs were walking around and drinking beer.
    *   This refers to a specific time of day/night.

    *   Sense 3 (concluding time period) is metaphorical/historical (e.g., "evening of the Roman Empire"). This doesn't fit.
    *   Sense 2 (early part of night spent in a special way) refers to an event or a specific way of spending the time (e.g., "an evening at the opera").
    *   Sense 1 (latter part of the day/decreasing daylight) is the general time period.

    *   "all evening" usually refers to the duration of the time period from late afternoon/sunset until night.
    *   While the context mentions a "pajama party" (which might suggest a "special way" of spending time), the phrase "all evening" typically denotes the time span itself rather than a specific event like "an evening at the opera."
    *   Comparing Sense 1 and Sense 2: Sense 1 is the general time of day. Sense 2 is more about a specific social engagement or a particular way the time was spent. "All evening" is a common temporal adverbial phrase referring to the time period.

    *   Sense 1: the latter part of the day (the period of decreasing daylight from late afternoon until nightfall).
    *   Sense 2: the early part of night (from dinner until bedtime) spent in a special way.
    *   In "all evening," the focus is on the duration of the time of day.

    *   Sense 1 is the most general and fits the temporal duration "all evening."

    *   Wait, let me re-read Sense 2: "the early part of night (from dinner until bedtime) spent in a special way".
    *   The context says "like a pajama party all evening". This describes the *nature* of the evening, but "all evening" still refers to the time period.
    *   Usually, "all evening" maps to the general time of day (Sense 1).

    *   Sense 1: General time of day.
    *   Sense 2: A specific event/experience.
    *   Sense 3: Metaphorical end.
    *   "all evening" -> Sense 1.

    *   The context describes a "pajama party" atmosphere in a district.
    *   "lots of people & dogs walking around, drinking beer."
    *   This describes a general state of movement without a specific destination or goal (leisurely movement).

    *   Sense 1: "walk randomly" (often implies searching for something, as in the example "to see whether we could find an open drugstore").

    *   Sense 3: "walk with no particular goal" (Example: walking around in the garden).

    *   Sense 3 refers to alcoholism/excessive drinking, which isn't implied here (just people at a party).
    *   Comparing Sense 2 and Sense 4: "Drinking beer" fits Sense 4 ("consume alcohol") better than the general "take in liquids" (Sense 2), especially in a social party context.

    *   Sense 4: "consume alcohol" | synonyms: booze, fuddle | example: "We were up drinking all night".
    *   This matches the context of people at a party drinking beer.

    *   The speaker says, "I was just sitting down to meet with some new therapy clients..."
    *   This describes the action of the speaker moving from a standing position to a seated position (or the process of starting the meeting by taking a seat).
    *   It is an intransitive use (the speaker is the one sitting).

    *   Sense 1: "be seated" (state of being in a seat).
    *   Sense 2: "take a seat" (the action of moving into a seated position).
    *   Sense 3: "show to a seat; assign a seat for" (transitive action performed on someone else).

    *   Sense 3 is transitive ("The host seated me"), but the context is "I was just sitting down," which is intransitive. So, Sense 3 is incorrect.
    *   Sense 1 ("be seated") describes a state.
    *   Sense 2 ("take a seat") describes the action of sitting down.
    *   In the phrase "I was just sitting down to meet...", the speaker is describing the moment they were in the process of taking a seat to begin the meeting. This aligns better with "take a seat" (Sense 2) than the state of "being seated" (Sense 1).

    *   "I was just sitting down" implies the transition from standing to sitting.
    *   Sense 2: "take a seat" = the act of sitting down.
    *   Sense 1: "be seated" = the state of sitting.
    *   The phrase "just sitting down" strongly suggests the action/transition.

    *   1: undergo or suffer (e.g., meet a violent death) - No.

    *   5: fill or meet a want or need (e.g., satisfy a need) - No.
    *   6: get to know; get acquainted with (e.g., met a guy at a bar) - Possible, but "meet with" often implies a scheduled appointment.

    *   Context: "I was just sitting down to meet with some <t>new</t> therapy clients, a couple..."
    *   Meaning: The speaker is meeting clients they have not worked with before; they are recently acquired clients.

    *   Sense 1: "not of long duration; having just (or relatively recently) come into being or been made or acquired or discovered" (Example: a new law; new cars).
    *   Sense 2: (of crops) harvested early. (Not applicable)
    *   Sense 3: unprecedented. (Not applicable)

    *   Sense 10: unfamiliar. (Example: new experiences).
    *   Sense 11: lacking training or experience. (Example: raw recruits).

    *   The clients are "new" to the therapist. This means they have recently been acquired as clients.
    *   Sense 1: "having just (or relatively recently) come into being or been made or **acquired** or discovered". This fits perfectly.
    *   Sense 9: "other than the former one(s); different". This usually refers to a replacement (e.g., a new car replacing an old one). While these clients are different from previous ones, "acquired" in Sense 1 is a more precise fit for adding new clients to a practice.
    *   Sense 11: "lacking training or experience". This would mean the *clients* are inexperienced at being clients, which is not the intended meaning.

    *   Sense 1 specifically mentions "acquired". A new client is a recently acquired client.
