Target lemma: ministry
Target surface form: ministry
Context:
Major U.S. firms such as Chevron and ConocoPhillips, which have cultivated close ties with the Iraqi Oil Ministry and have provided technical advice in recent years, walked away empty-handed. Russian companies Lukoil and Gazprom were the top stakeholders in two of the contracts awarded this weekend. State-owned China National Petroleum Corporation bid on more contracts than any other company and walked away with large stakes in contracts for two major fields. We all know that China is on track to become a major economic as well as technological power, Oil Ministry spokesman Assam Jihad said. We feel confident that the Chinese company will be on par with its competitors and will deliver on its commitments towards Iraq. Companies pre-selected to submit bids made offers that were then compared to the per barrel fee the <t>ministry</t> was willing to pay for boosting output above current levels at each field.

*   Target lemma: `output`
    *   Target surface form: `output`
    *   Context: "...the per barrel fee the ministry was willing to pay for boosting <t>output</t> above current levels at each field."
    *   Domain: Oil industry (Chevron, ConocoPhillips, Iraqi Oil Ministry, per barrel fee, fields).

    *   Sense 1: `the quantity of something (as a commodity) that is created (usually within a given period of time)` | Synonyms: `yield, production` | Example: `production was up in the second quarter`.
    *   Sense 2: `production of a certain amount` | Synonym: `yield`.
    *   Sense 3: `what is produced in a given time period` | Synonyms: `outturn, turnout`.
    *   Sense 4: `final product; the things produced` | Synonym: `end product`.
    *   Sense 5: `signal that comes out of an electronic system` | Synonym: `output signal`.

    *   The context refers to "boosting output above current levels at each field" in the context of oil production ("per barrel fee").
    *   This refers to the *quantity* of oil produced.
    *   Sense 1 specifically mentions "the quantity of something (as a commodity) that is created" and lists "production" as a synonym. This fits perfectly with oil production.
    *   Sense 2 is very similar but less descriptive regarding the "commodity" aspect.
    *   Sense 3 refers to "what is produced in a given time period" (outturn/turnout), which is close but Sense 1's "quantity of something (as a commodity)" is a more precise fit for oil production levels.
    *   Sense 4 refers to the "final product" (the oil itself), but "boosting output" refers to the *amount* produced, not the product itself.
    *   Sense 5 is electronic and irrelevant.

    *   Sense 1: "the quantity of something (as a commodity) that is created" -> Fits "boosting output" (increasing the amount of oil produced).
    *   Sense 3: "what is produced in a given time period" -> Also fits, but Sense 1 is more specific to commodities.

    Comparing Sense 1 and Sense 3:
    Sense 1: "the quantity of something (as a commodity) that is created (usually within a given period of time)"
    Sense 3: "what is produced in a given time period"

    In the context of oil fields and "per barrel fee", "output" refers to the volume/quantity of oil produced. Sense 1 is the most precise definition for commodity production.

    *   Example for Sense 6: "a high level of care is required".
    *   Example for Sense 2: "a remarkable degree of frankness".
    *   In the context of "boosting output above current levels", "levels" refers to the quantity/amount of oil produced. This aligns best with Sense 6.

    *   "US banks repay state support"
    *   "breaking free from their state shackles"
    *   In this context, "state support" and "state shackles" refer to the government's intervention or control over the banks (likely during a financial crisis).

    *   Sense 1 (condition): No.
    *   Sense 2 (agitation): No.
    *   Sense 3 (Dept of State): No, the Department of State handles foreign policy, not bank bailouts (that would be the Treasury).
    *   Sense 4 (government of a sovereign state): Yes. "The state" often refers to the government as an entity that provides support or imposes regulations.
    *   Sense 5 (administrative district): Unlikely. "State support" in the context of "US major banks" usually refers to the federal government (the state as a sovereign entity), not individual US states (like New York or California), although it *could* be, but "state shackles" usually implies the overarching government authority.
    *   Sense 6 (territory): No.
    *   Sense 7 (chemistry): No.
    *   Sense 8 (politically organized body): This is very close to Sense 4. Sense 4 is "the group of people comprising the government", while Sense 8 is "a politically organized body of people under a single government".

    *   Sense 4: "the group of people comprising the government of a sovereign state" (Example: "the state has lowered its income tax").
    *   Sense 8: "a politically organized body of people under a single government" (Example: "the state has elected a new president").
    *   In "state support" and "state shackles", "state" is used as an adjective (attributive noun) meaning "governmental".
    *   Comparing Sense 4 and Sense 8: Sense 4 specifically focuses on the *government* aspect, whereas Sense 8 is more about the *nation/body politic*.
    *   "State support" = support from the government.
    *   "State shackles" = restrictions imposed by the government.
    *   Sense 4 fits best as it refers to the government entity.

    *   Wait, let me re-read Sense 4 and Sense 8.
    *   Sense 4: "the group of people comprising the government of a sovereign state"
    *   Sense 8: "a politically organized body of people under a single government"
    *   Usually, when talking about "state intervention" or "state support", we mean the government. Sense 4 is the most precise for "the government".

    *   Sense 5 (province/administrative district) is possible in the US context, but "state support" for "major banks" (like JP Morgan, Goldman Sachs) during a crisis (like 2008) refers to the federal government (TARP, etc.). Even if it were state-level, the meaning "government" still applies.

    *   Sense 4: government.
    *   Sense 8: nation/body politic.
    *   "State support" -> Government support.
    *   Sense 4 is the best fit.

    *   Key phrase: "state shackles" (referring to "state support").

    *   Sense 1: The way something is (condition).

    *   The context discusses US banks repaying "state support" and breaking free from "state shackles."
    *   "State support" in this context refers to the government's financial assistance (TARP - Troubled Asset Relief Program).
    *   TARP was a program run by the US federal government.
    *   Therefore, "state" here refers to the government/governing body.

    *   Sense 4: "the group of people comprising the government of a sovereign state" (e.g., "the state has lowered its income tax").

    *   Sense 7: "the territory occupied by one of the constituent administrative districts of a nation" (e.g., "his state is in the deep south").

    *   Sense 7 (province/US state) is unlikely because TARP was a federal program, not a state-level (province) program.

    *   Sense 4: "the group of people comprising the government of a sovereign state"
    *   Sense 6: "a politically organized body of people under a single government"
    *   In the phrase "state support," "state" is used as an adjective meaning "governmental." Sense 4 is the most precise fit for the government as an entity that provides support or imposes shackles.

    *   Sense 4: "the state has lowered its income tax" (Governmental action).
    *   Sense 6: "the state has elected a new president" (The body politic).
    *   "State support" is a governmental action.

    *   The sentence says banks are "breaking free from their state shackles."
    *   "State shackles" in this context refers to the restrictions or conditions imposed by the government (state support/TARP) that limited the banks' freedom of action.
    *   This is a metaphorical use of "shackles" meaning restraints or restrictions.

    *   Sense 1: "a restraint that confines or restricts freedom". This fits perfectly, both literally (prisoner) and metaphorically (financial restrictions).
    *   Sense 2: "a U-shaped bar". This is a literal piece of hardware. It does not fit the context of "state shackles" in a financial/political sense.

*   Target lemma: `protection`
    *   Target surface form: `protection`
    *   Context: "US banks repay state support... Bank of America repaid the support from the bank <t>protection</t> fund TARP..."
    *   Key phrase: "bank protection fund TARP"

    *   Sense 1: payment extorted by gangsters (tribute). (Incorrect)
    *   Sense 2: defense against financial failure; financial independence (security). (Possible, as TARP was meant to prevent failure).
    *   Sense 3: imposition of duties/quotas on imports (trade protection). (Incorrect)
    *   Sense 4: condition of being protected (shelter). (Incorrect)
    *   Sense 5: covering to protect from damage (protective covering). (Incorrect)
    *   Sense 6: the activity of protecting someone or something. (Possible, as the fund's purpose is the activity of protecting the banking system).
    *   Sense 7: kindly endorsement and guidance (auspices). (Incorrect)

    *   TARP (Troubled Asset Relief Program) was a program to purchase toxic assets and provide capital to banks to stabilize the financial system and prevent a total collapse.
    *   The phrase "bank protection fund" refers to the mechanism/activity of protecting the banks/financial system from failure.
    *   Sense 2 ("defense against financial failure") describes the *result* or the *state* of having security.
    *   Sense 6 ("the activity of protecting someone or something") describes the *action* or *process* of providing protection.

    *   "bank protection fund" -> A fund dedicated to the *activity* of protecting banks.
    *   Comparing Sense 2 and Sense 6:
        *   Sense 2: "defense against financial failure; financial independence". Example: "insurance provided protection against loss of wages".
        *   Sense 6: "the activity of protecting someone or something". Example: "the witnesses demanded police protection".
    *   TARP is a program/fund designed to perform the *activity* of protecting the banking system. While it provides a "defense against financial failure" (Sense 2), the term "protection fund" usually refers to the function/activity of the fund.
    *   Wait, let's look at Sense 2 again: "defense against financial failure". This is very specific to the financial context.
    *   Let's look at Sense 6 again: "the activity of protecting someone or something". This is a general sense.
    *   In "bank protection fund", "protection" modifies "fund". The fund is for the purpose of protecting the banks.
    *   Is it "defense against financial failure" (Sense 2) or "the activity of protecting" (Sense 6)?
    *   TARP was specifically created to prevent financial failure. Sense 2's definition "defense against financial failure" fits the *purpose* of the fund perfectly.
    *   However, "protection fund" as a compound noun often refers to the *activity* of providing protection.
    *   Let's re-read Sense 2: "defense against financial failure; financial independence".
    *   Let's re-read Sense 6: "the activity of protecting someone or something".
    *   If we say "police protection", it's the activity of the police protecting someone.
    *   If we say "bank protection fund", it's a fund for the activity of protecting banks.
    *   But Sense 2 explicitly mentions "financial failure".
    *   Let's check the examples for Sense 2: "insurance provided protection against loss of wages". This is very similar to a fund providing protection against failure.
    *   Let's check the examples for Sense 6: "witnesses demanded police protection".
    *   TARP is a government program. The "protection" it provides is a defense against the failure of the banks.

    *   Sense 2: "defense against financial failure"
    *   Sense 6: "the activity of protecting someone or something"
    *   The phrase "bank protection fund" describes a fund used for the *activity* of protecting banks. But the *type* of protection is specifically "defense against financial failure".
    *   Usually, in WordNet, the most specific sense is preferred. Sense 2 is specifically about financial failure.

    *   TARP = Troubled Asset Relief Program.
    *   It was a "bailout".
    *   A bailout is a defense against financial failure.
    *   Therefore, Sense 2 is a very strong candidate.

    *   Sense 2: "defense against financial failure; financial independence"
    *   Sense 6: "the activity of protecting someone or something"
    *   If the text said "the banks were under the protection of the government", Sense 6 might be better.
    *   But "bank protection fund" suggests the fund's purpose is to provide that financial defense.

    *   Sense 2: "defense against financial failure"
    *   Sense 6: "the activity of protecting someone or something"
    *   Looking at the context "bank protection fund", "protection" is used as an attributive noun.
    *   Is it a fund for the *activity* of protecting, or a fund that *is* a defense against failure?
    *   Actually, "protection" in "protection fund" usually refers to the general activity (Sense 6). But Sense 2 is so specific to "financial failure" that it's hard to ignore.
    *   Let's re-evaluate Sense 2: "defense against financial failure; financial independence".
    *   Example: "insurance provided protection against loss of wages".
    *   TARP provided protection against the failure of the banks.
    *   This fits perfectly.

    *   Sense 1: Gangsters (No)
    *   Sense 3: Trade/Tariffs (No)
    *   Sense 4: Shelter (No)
    *   Sense 5: Covering (No)
    *   Sense 7: Auspices (No)
    *   Sense 2 vs Sense 6.
    *   Sense 2 is "defense against financial failure".
    *   Sense 6 is "the activity of protecting".
    *   TARP is a fund to prevent financial failure. Sense 2 is the most precise.

        3.  `fund%1:21:01::`: a supply of something available for future use (synonym: store, stock).

    *   The context refers to "the bank protection fund TARP".
    *   TARP (Troubled Asset Relief Program) was a program where the US government set aside a reserve of money to support banks during the financial crisis.
    *   Bank of America "repaid the support from the bank protection fund".
    *   This describes a reserve of money set aside for a specific purpose (bank protection/stabilization).

    *   Sense 1: "a reserve of money set aside for some purpose". This fits perfectly. TARP is a monetary fund created for a specific purpose.
    *   Sense 2: "a financial institution that sells shares...". TARP is not an investment company or a mutual fund selling shares to individuals.
    *   Sense 3: "a supply of something available for future use". While money is a "something", this sense is more general (like a store of cigars) and less specific than Sense 1, which explicitly mentions money.

    *   Sense 1 is the most precise and accurate fit for "bank protection fund TARP".

    *   The context is about banks repaying money received from the government (TARP - Troubled Asset Relief Program).
    *   This is clearly financial assistance/funding provided to an organization (the banks) to keep them afloat or make a project (stabilizing the financial system) possible.
    *   Sense 1 refers to "financial means whereby one lives" (livelihood), which is more about personal survival/welfare.
    *   Sense 11 refers to "financial resources provided to make some project possible" (funding, backing, financial backing). While "stabilizing the banking system" isn't a "project" in the sense of a science experiment, "funding" and "financial backing" are the exact terms used for government bailouts.

    *   Sense 1: "he applied to the state for support" (welfare).
    *   Sense 11: "the foundation provided support for the experiment" (funding).
    *   The context "repay the state support" fits "funding" or "financial backing" (Sense 11) much better than "livelihood" (Sense 1).

    *   Sense 11: `support%1:21:01::` - financial resources provided to make some project possible | synonyms=financial support, funding, backing, financial backing.
    *   This fits the context of banks repaying government funds (TARP).

Target lemma: institution
Target surface form: institutions
Context:
US banks repay state support The crisis-hit US major banks are breaking free from their state shackles. On Wednesday Bank of America repaid the support from the bank protection fund TARP in the amount USD 45 billion (nearly EUR 30 billion) in one go. And, according to reports from US broadcaster CNBC, Citigroup is also planning to repay the state support. The <t>institutions</t> thereby want to wiggle themselves free from the restrictions going hand-in-hand with the acceptance of the money, such as the limits on manager bonuses and the paying of high charges. Bank of America had raised some USD 19 billion from investors through convertible loans.

    *   Sense 4: A building or complex of buildings for a cause. -> Too narrow (refers to the physical structure).

*   Target word: "restrictions" (lemma: "restriction")
    *   Context: "The institutions thereby want to wiggle themselves free from the <t>restrictions</t> going hand-in-hand with the acceptance of the money, such as the limits on manager bonuses and the paying of high charges."
    *   Key phrases: "wiggle themselves free from the restrictions", "going hand-in-hand with the acceptance of the money", "limits on manager bonuses".

    *   Sense 1: `restriction%1:09:00::` - "a principle that limits the extent of something" (synonym: limitation). Example: "restrictions on my movements".
    *   Sense 2: `restriction%1:04:00::` - "an act of limiting or restricting (as by regulation)" (synonym: limitation).
    *   Sense 3: `restriction%1:04:01::` - "the act of keeping something within specified bounds (by force if necessary)" (synonym: confinement). Example: "restriction of the infection".

    *   The context refers to "limits on manager bonuses and the paying of high charges" imposed as conditions for receiving state support (TARP).
    *   These are rules or principles that limit what the banks can do.
    *   Sense 3 (confinement/force) is clearly wrong.
    *   Sense 2 refers to the *act* of limiting (the process of restricting).
    *   Sense 1 refers to the *principle* or the *rule* that limits (the limitation itself).
    *   In the sentence "wiggle themselves free from the restrictions", "restrictions" refers to the specific rules/limitations imposed on them, not the act of imposing them.

    *   Sense 1: "a principle that limits the extent of something" (e.g., restrictions on movements). This fits perfectly with "limits on manager bonuses".
    *   Sense 2: "an act of limiting or restricting". This is more about the action of restricting rather than the rules themselves.

    *   The "restrictions" are the conditions (rules/limitations) attached to the money. This aligns best with Sense 1.
