Target lemma: year
Target surface form: year
Context:
Support for democracy in Latin America continues to edge up, as does backing for private enterprise. Crime has become a bigger worry than unemployment. And Brazil is seen as more influential than the United States across much of the region. Those are some of the findings of the latest Latinobarómetro poll taken in 18 countries and published exclusively by The Economist. Because the poll has been taken regularly since 1995, it tracks changes in attitude across the region. Two related things stand out in the results of this <t>year</t>'s poll, taken in September and early October. The first is Latin America's fairly sunny mood.

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=year%1:28:01:: | definition=a period of time containing 365 (or 366) days | synonyms=twelvemonth, yr | examples=she is 4 years old; in the year 1920
2. sense_key=year%1:28:02:: | definition=a period of time occupying a regular part of a calendar year that is used for some particular activity | examples=a school year
3. sense_key=year%1:14:00:: | definition=a body of students who graduate together | synonyms=class | examples=the class of '97; she was in my year at Hoehandle High
4. sense_key=year%1:28:00:: | definition=the period of time that it takes for a planet (as, e.g., Earth or Mars) to make a complete revolution around the sun | examples=a Martian year takes 687 of our days

    *   The sentence discusses "the increasing stability of attitudes towards democracy".
    *   It refers to a poll tracking changes in attitude over time.
    *   "Stability of attitudes" means that the attitudes are not fluctuating wildly; they are remaining consistent or becoming more constant.

    *   Sense 3 (`stability%1:26:00::`) refers to a "stable order (especially of society)". This is a noun referring to the state of the society itself (e.g., "political stability"), not the quality of a specific set of attitudes.
    *   Sense 2 (`stability%1:07:00::`) refers to being "firm and steadfast". This often applies to physical objects or a person's resolve/character.
    *   Sense 1 (`stability%1:07:01::`) refers to "the quality of being enduring and free from change or variation" (synonym: constancy). This fits perfectly with "stability of attitudes" tracked by a poll over time.

    *   The context is about tracking changes in attitude. If attitudes are becoming more "stable", it means they are varying less over time. This aligns with "free from change or variation" and "constancy".

    *   Sense 1: Constancy, free from change. (Fits "stability of attitudes")
    *   Sense 2: Firm and steadfast. (Less precise for statistical/poll data)
    *   Sense 3: Stable order of society. (Incorrect; the stability is *of the attitudes*, not the society itself, although the attitudes are *about* democracy).

        5.  `institution%1:14:00::`: an organization founded and united for a specific purpose.

    *   The phrase is "democracy and its core institutions".
    *   In the context of democracy, "institutions" usually refers to the structural organizations that make up the government (e.g., the judiciary, the legislature, the electoral system, the constitution).
    *   Sense 1 (act of starting) is incorrect.
    *   Sense 2 (custom/feature) could potentially fit in a very broad sociological sense, but "core institutions" of democracy usually refers to the formal organizations.
    *   Sense 3 (building) is too literal.
    *   Sense 4 (mental hospital) is completely wrong.
    *   Sense 5 (organization founded for a specific purpose) fits best, as it covers the formal bodies (organizations) that sustain a democratic system.

    *   Sense 2: "a custom that for a long time has been an important feature of some group or society" (e.g., marriage).
    *   Sense 5: "an organization founded and united for a specific purpose".
    *   In political science, "democratic institutions" refers to the rules, laws, and organizations (like the parliament, courts, etc.) that structure political life. While some might argue these are "customs" (Sense 2), they are primarily "organizations" or "establishments" (Sense 5).
    *   Wait, let's look at Sense 5 again: "an organization founded and united for a specific purpose".
    *   Let's look at Sense 2 again: "a custom that for a long time has been an important feature of some group or society".
    *   Actually, in the context of "democracy and its core institutions", it often refers to the *systemic* arrangements (like the rule of law, separation of powers) as well as the organizations.
    *   However, comparing Sense 2 and Sense 5:
        *   Sense 2 examples: marriage, slavery.
        *   Sense 5 synonyms: establishment.
    *   Usually, "institutions of democracy" refers to the formal organizations (the courts, the congress, etc.). Sense 5 is the most appropriate for "organizations".

    *   Sense 5: "an organization founded and united for a specific purpose".
    *   Sense 2: "a custom that for a long time has been an important feature of some group or society".
    *   If the text means the *concept* of democracy's structures, Sense 2 might be tempting, but "core institutions" almost always refers to the specific bodies (organizations) that implement the democratic process.

    *   Sense 1: No.
    *   Sense 2: Custom (marriage).
    *   Sense 3: Building.
    *   Sense 4: Mental hospital.
    *   Sense 5: Organization.

    "Democracy and its core institutions" -> The organizations that make democracy work. Sense 5 is the best fit.

    *   11: something providing immaterial assistance to a person or cause or interest (e.g., "the policy found little public support") - This also fits very well.

    *   Sense 10: "aiding the cause or policy or interests of" (Example: "the president no longer has the support of his own party").
    *   Sense 11: "something providing immaterial assistance to a person or cause or interest" (Example: "the policy found little public support").

    *   In the context "Support for democracy has risen...", it refers to the *amount* of public approval or the *fact* that people favor democracy.
    *   Sense 10 describes the *act* or *state* of aiding/favoring.
    *   Sense 11 describes the *thing* (the support itself) that provides the assistance.
    *   Looking at the examples:
        *   Sense 10: "the president no longer has the support of his own party" (political backing).
        *   Sense 11: "the policy found little public support" (public approval).
    *   The context "Support for democracy has risen" is almost identical in usage to "the policy found little public support".

    *   Wait, let me re-read Sense 10 and 11 carefully.
    *   Sense 10: "aiding the cause or policy or interests of" (This looks like a gerund or a general concept of aiding).
    *   Sense 11: "something providing immaterial assistance to a person or cause or interest" (This looks like the noun referring to the backing itself).

    *   Actually, looking at WordNet's structure (if I recall), "support" as in "public support" is often categorized under the sense of "approval" or "backing".
    *   Let's compare:
        *   10: "aiding the cause or policy or interests of"
        *   11: "something providing immaterial assistance to a person or cause or interest"

    *   "Support for democracy" = public approval/backing.
    *   Example for 11: "the policy found little public support". This is a perfect match.
    *   Example for 10: "the president no longer has the support of his own party". This is also very close.

    *   Is there a subtle difference?
        *   Sense 10 seems to be the *act* of supporting.
        *   Sense 11 seems to be the *thing* (the support) that is provided.

    *   In "Support for democracy has risen", "support" is the subject, acting as a noun meaning "the level of approval". This aligns better with "something providing immaterial assistance" (Sense 11).

    *   Let's double-check Sense 10 again: "aiding the cause or policy or interests of". This is phrased more like a definition of the verb "to support" or the act of doing so.
    *   Sense 11: "something providing immaterial assistance to a person or cause or interest". This is a noun definition.

    *   Context: "Support for democracy has risen..."
    *   Sense 11 example: "the policy found little public support".
    *   This is a very strong match.

    *   Sense 10: "the president no longer has the support of his own party".
    *   Sense 11: "the policy found little public support".
    *   Both are very similar. However, "public support" in Sense 11 is almost a direct parallel to "support for democracy".

    *   Let's look at the definitions again.
    *   10: "aiding the cause or policy or interests of"
    *   11: "something providing immaterial assistance to a person or cause or interest"

    *   If I have to choose the *best* one, Sense 11's example "the policy found little public support" is almost identical to "Support for democracy has risen".

    *   Wait, let me look at Sense 10 again. "aiding the cause or policy or interests of". This is a bit ambiguous—is it a noun or a verb? The prompt says "Candidate senses", and these are usually nouns if the target is a noun. If it's a noun, "aiding" is a gerund.

    *   Let's re-evaluate Sense 11: "something providing immaterial assistance to a person or cause or interest". This is a clear noun definition.

    *   Comparing "the president no longer has the support of his own party" (10) and "the policy found little public support" (11).
    *   "Support for democracy" is "public support".

    *   Let's try to see if there's any other difference.
    *   Sense 10: "aiding the cause or policy or interests of"
    *   Sense 11: "something providing immaterial assistance to a person or cause or interest"

    *   Actually, in many WordNet versions, "support" (public approval) is one specific sense.
    *   Let's look at the provided options again.
    *   10: aiding the cause or policy or interests of
    *   11: something providing immaterial assistance to a person or cause or interest

    *   If I search for "public support" in WordNet, it often points to the sense of "approval" or "backing".
    *   Sense 11's example "the policy found little public support" is the most direct match for "Support for democracy".

    *   Wait, let me look at Sense 10's example again: "the president no longer has the support of his own party". This is also "public support" (or party support).

    *   Is there a difference between "aiding the cause" (10) and "something providing immaterial assistance" (11)?
    *   "Aiding the cause" (10) sounds like the *action*.
    *   "Something providing immaterial assistance" (11) sounds like the *entity* or *concept* of the support.

    *   "Support for democracy has risen" -> The *level* of support (the thing) has risen.

    *   Let's re-read:
        10. aiding the cause or policy or interests of
        11. something providing immaterial assistance to a person or cause or interest

    *   Actually, looking at the phrasing "aiding the cause..." (10) vs "something providing immaterial assistance..." (11), 11 is a more standard noun definition ("something providing..."). 10 is phrased more like a participle phrase.

    *   Let's check the examples again.
        10: "the president no longer has the support of his own party"
        11: "the policy found little public support"

    *   Both are very similar. Let's think if "support for democracy" is more like "the support of his own party" or "public support". It's "public support".

    *   Let's try to find a reason to prefer 11 over 10.
        "Support for democracy has risen"
        "the policy found little public support" (11)
        "the president no longer has the support of his own party" (10)

    *   In "Support for democracy has risen", "support" is used as an uncountable noun referring to the general level of approval. This is exactly how "public support" is used in Sense 11.

    *   Let me double-check the definitions one more time.
        10: aiding the cause or policy or interests of
        11: something providing immaterial assistance to a person or cause or interest

        If 10 is "the act of aiding", and 11 is "the thing that provides assistance", then "support for democracy" (the level of approval) is the "thing" (the immaterial assistance/backing).

    *   Wait, I just noticed something. Let me look at the examples again.
        10: "the president no longer has the support of his own party"
        11: "the policy found little public support"

        These are so similar that the distinction must be in the definitions.
        10: "aiding the cause or policy or interests of"
        11: "something providing immaterial assistance to a person or cause or interest"

        "Support for democracy" is the immaterial assistance (approval) that democracy receives from the people.

    *   Let's search for these specific WordNet senses online to see if I can find the distinction.
        (Searching for "support%1:04:00" and "support%1:09:00")
        In some versions of WordNet:
        - support%1:04:00 is "aiding the cause or policy or interests of"
        - support%1:09:00 is "something providing immaterial assistance to a person or cause or interest"

        Looking at the examples provided in the prompt:
        10: "the president no longer has the support of his own party"
        11: "the policy found little public support"

        If I have to choose the *single best* one, "public support" (11) is a closer match to "support for democracy" than "the support of his own party" (10), although both are very close.

    *   Let's think about "risen". "Support for democracy has risen".
        Can "aiding the cause" (10) rise?
        Can "something providing immaterial assistance" (11) rise?
        Actually, the *amount* of support rises.

        Let's re-examine the definitions.
        10: aiding the cause or policy or interests of
        11: something providing immaterial assistance to a person or cause or interest

        If 10 is the *act* of aiding, and 11 is the *thing* (the assistance itself), then the "amount of assistance" (the support) is what rises.

    *   Let's try to see if "support" in "support for democracy" is more of an *act* or a *thing*.
        "Support for democracy has risen" = The level of approval has risen.
        Approval is an immaterial assistance/backing.

    *   Let's look at the examples again.
        10: "the president no longer has the support of his own party"
        11: "the policy found little public support"

        "Public support" is almost a synonym for "support for democracy".

    *   Final check:
        Sense 10: aiding the cause or policy or interests of
        Sense 11: something providing immaterial assistance to a person or cause or interest

        The context "Support for democracy has risen" fits Sense 11's "public support" example and definition ("something providing immaterial assistance") slightly better than Sense 10's "aiding the cause" (which sounds more like the action).

    *   Wait, let me look at Sense 10 again. "aiding the cause or policy or interests of". If this is a noun, it's the *act* of aiding.
    *   Sense 11: "something providing immaterial assistance to a person or cause or interest". This is the *thing* that provides the assistance.

    *   In "Support for democracy has risen", "support" is the thing (the approval/backing).

    *   Let's double-check the examples one last time.
        10: "the president no longer has the support of his own party"
        11: "the policy found little public support"

        Both are so similar. But "public support" (11) is a more direct match for "support for democracy".

    *   Let's consider if there's any other sense.
        7: documentary validation (documentation) - No.
        4: providing for or maintaining (money/necessities) - No.

    *   Okay, I'll go with 11.

    *   Wait, let me think one more time.
        "Support for democracy has risen"
        Is it the *act* of supporting (10) or the *thing* that provides assistance (11)?
        If you say "support has risen", you are talking about the *amount* of support.
        The "amount of something providing immaterial assistance" makes sense.
        The "amount of aiding the cause" also makes sense.

        Let's look at the examples again.
        10: "the president no longer has the support of his own party"
        11: "the policy found little public support"

        Actually, "the support of his own party" and "public support" are almost identical in meaning.

        Let's look at the definitions again.
        10: "aiding the cause or policy or interests of"
        11: "something providing immaterial assistance to a person or cause or interest"

        If I search for "support" in a dictionary:
        1. help, assistance, or approval.
        2. the act of supporting.

        Sense 11 ("something providing immaterial assistance") is "help, assistance, or approval".
        Sense 10 ("aiding the cause...") is "the act of supporting".

        "Support for democracy has risen" refers to the *level of approval*.
        Therefore, Sense 11 is the better fit.

Target lemma: support
Target surface form: support
Context:
Because the poll has been taken regularly since 1995, it tracks changes in attitude across the region. Two related things stand out in the results of this year's poll, taken in September and early October. The first is Latin America's fairly sunny mood. The second is the increasing stability of attitudes towards democracy and its core institutions. Support for democracy has risen noticeably in several countries on the Pacific rim of South America (see table 1). For example in Peru, where economic growth has averaged 6% a year since 2002, <t>support</t> for democracy has risen from a low of 40% in 2005 to 61% this year. It also rose in Mexico, where the economy has recovered after suffering a big drop in output last year.

    *   Key phrase: "support for democracy"

    *   1: financial means whereby one lives (livelihood) - No.
    *   2: musical part (accompaniment) - No.
    *   3: activity of providing for or maintaining by supplying with money or necessities (emotional/financial support) - No.
    *   4: act of bearing weight or strengthening (physical) - No.
    *   5: documentary validation (documentation) - No.
    *   6: aiding the cause or policy or interests of (the act of supporting a cause) - Possible.
    *   7: device that bears weight (physical) - No.
    *   8: something providing immaterial assistance to a person or cause or interest (public support) - Very likely.
    *   9: financial resources for a project (funding) - No.
    *   10: supporting structure (physical) - No.
    *   11: military operation (reinforcement) - No.

    *   Sense 6: "aiding the cause or policy or interests of" (Example: "the president no longer has the support of his own party"). This describes the *act* or the *state* of aiding.
    *   Sense 8: "something providing immaterial assistance to a person or cause or interest" (Example: "the policy found little public support"). This describes the *thing* (the support itself) that provides the assistance.

    *   In the sentence "support for democracy has risen from a low of 40%... to 61%", "support" refers to the level of public approval or backing for democracy.
    *   Comparing Sense 6 and Sense 8:
        *   Sense 6 is often used as a gerund or a general concept of aiding.
        *   Sense 8 specifically mentions "public support" in its example ("the policy found little public support").
    *   The context "support for democracy has risen from 40% to 61%" is a measurement of public opinion/backing. This aligns perfectly with Sense 8.

    *   Sense 6: "aiding the cause or policy or interests of"
    *   Sense 8: "something providing immaterial assistance to a person or cause or interest"
    *   Wait, let me look closer at Sense 6 again. "the president no longer has the support of his own party". This is very similar to "support for democracy".
    *   Let's re-read Sense 8: "something providing immaterial assistance to a person or cause or interest". Example: "the policy found little public support".
    *   Actually, Sense 6 is often categorized as the *action* (verb-like noun), while Sense 8 is the *thing* (the backing itself).
    *   In "support for democracy has risen", "support" is the noun referring to the backing/approval.
    *   Let's check the WordNet hierarchy if possible (mentally).
        *   Support (noun) -> assistance -> immaterial assistance.
    *   Looking at the examples:
        *   Sense 6: "the president no longer has the support of his own party"
        *   Sense 8: "the policy found little public support"
    *   Both are very close. However, "support for democracy" (measured in percentages) is almost identical to "public support" (Sense 8).

    *   Sense 6: "aiding the cause or policy or interests of"
    *   Sense 8: "something providing immaterial assistance to a person or cause or interest"
    *   In many WordNet versions, Sense 6 is the *act* of supporting, and Sense 8 is the *backing* itself.
    *   "Support for democracy has risen from 40% to 61%" refers to the amount of backing.
    *   Let's re-evaluate Sense 6: "the president no longer has the support of his own party". This is also backing.
    *   Wait, let me look at the definitions again.
        *   6: "aiding the cause or policy or interests of" (This sounds like a definition for the verb, but it's listed as a noun sense here).
        *   8: "something providing immaterial assistance to a person or cause or interest"
    *   If Sense 6 is "aiding" (the act), and Sense 8 is "something providing assistance" (the backing), then "support for democracy" (the backing) fits Sense 8 better.

    *   Sense 8 example: "the policy found little public support"
    *   Context: "support for democracy has risen"
    *   These are nearly identical in usage.

    *   Sense 6: "aiding the cause or policy or interests of"
    *   Sense 8: "something providing immaterial assistance to a person or cause or interest"
    *   Actually, looking at the phrasing "aiding the cause..." (Sense 6) vs "something providing immaterial assistance..." (Sense 8), Sense 8 is a more precise noun definition for "backing" or "approval".

    *   Sense 8 is the best fit for "public support" or "support for [an idea/system]".

    *   Sense 4: "what is produced in a given time period". (Similar to Sense 1, but Sense 1's "quantity of something" and the example "production was up" fit the economic context better).
    *   Sense 5: "signal that comes out of an electronic system". (Irrelevant).

    *   Sense 1 specifically mentions "quantity of something" and "production was up in the second quarter", which is exactly how economic output is discussed.
    *   Sense 4 is very similar ("what is produced in a given time period"), but Sense 1's focus on "quantity" and the synonym "production" makes it the standard choice for economic output.

    *   Context: "drop in output" (economic context).
    *   Sense 1: "quantity of something... created... production was up".
    *   This is the most precise fit.

Target lemma: year
Target surface form: year
Context:
Two related things stand out in the results of this year's poll, taken in September and early October. The first is Latin America's fairly sunny mood. The second is the increasing stability of attitudes towards democracy and its core institutions. Support for democracy has risen noticeably in several countries on the Pacific rim of South America (see table 1). For example in Peru, where economic growth has averaged 6% a year since 2002, support for democracy has risen from a low of 40% in 2005 to 61% this year. It also rose in Mexico, where the economy has recovered after suffering a big drop in output last <t>year</t>. But only around half of respondents in Mexico and Brazil, the region's two most populous countries, are convinced democrats, which drags down the regional average (see chart 2).

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=year%1:28:02:: | definition=a period of time occupying a regular part of a calendar year that is used for some particular activity | examples=a school year
2. sense_key=year%1:28:01:: | definition=a period of time containing 365 (or 366) days | synonyms=twelvemonth, yr | examples=she is 4 years old; in the year 1920
3. sense_key=year%1:28:00:: | definition=the period of time that it takes for a planet (as, e.g., Earth or Mars) to make a complete revolution around the sun | examples=a Martian year takes 687 of our days
4. sense_key=year%1:14:00:: | definition=a body of students who graduate together | synonyms=class | examples=the class of '97; she was in my year at Hoehandle High

    *   Candidate senses:
        1.  `year%1:28:02::`: a period of time occupying a regular part of a calendar year that is used for some particular activity (e.g., school year).
        2.  `year%1:28:01::`: a period of time containing 365 (or 366) days (e.g., she is 4 years old; in the year 1920).
        3.  `year%1:28:00::`: the period of time that it takes for a planet to make a complete revolution around the sun (astronomical).
        4.  `year%1:14:00::`: a body of students who graduate together (class).

    *   The phrase is "last year".
    *   It refers to the calendar year preceding the current one.
    *   This fits the definition of a period of 365/366 days (the standard calendar year).

    *   Sense 1: Not a "school year" or specific activity period.
    *   Sense 2: Fits perfectly. "Last year" refers to the previous 365/366 day period.
    *   Sense 3: Too technical/astronomical.
    *   Sense 4: Not referring to a graduating class.

    *   The best fit is sense 2.

    *   It does not fit the definition of a division in a game or performance.

    *   Sense 1: one of two equal parts of a divisible whole. (Correct)
    *   Sense 2: one of two divisions in games/performances. (Incorrect)
