Totally absorbed, the ringers stare straight ahead, using peripheral vision (they call it "rope-sight ") to watch the other ropes and thus time their pulls.

    *   23: opportune (most suitable or right) - No.

    *   The word "best" is the superlative of "good".
    *   Sense 11 describes "good" as "adept, expert, proficient, skillful".
    *   Sense 17 is the general superlative of "good": "having the most positive qualities".
    *   In the phrase "one of England's best female ringers", "best" means the most skilled.
    *   While Sense 11 describes the *quality* (skill), Sense 17 is the specific *superlative* form of "good" (which includes the quality of being skilled).
    *   Wait, let's look at Sense 17 again: "sense_key=best%3:00:00:: | definition=(superlative of `good') having the most positive qualities | examples=the best film of the year; the best solution".
    *   Let's look at Sense 11 again: "sense_key=adept%5:00:00:skilled:00 | definition=having or showing knowledge and skill and aptitude | synonyms=adept, expert, good, practiced, proficient, skillful". This is for the word "good" (or "adept").
    *   The target word is "best". Sense 17 is explicitly the superlative of "good".

    *   Is "best" in "best female ringers" referring to skill (Sense 11) or general positive qualities (Sense 17)?
    *   Usually, in WordNet, if the word is "best", and it's the superlative of "good", and "good" has multiple senses, the superlative "best" often maps to the general superlative sense unless there's a specific superlative sense for that particular meaning.
    *   Sense 17 is the only one explicitly labeled as the superlative of "good".
    *   Sense 11 is a sense of "good" (synonym: good).
    *   Sense 22 is a sense of "good".
    *   Since the target word is "best", and Sense 17 is the superlative of "good", it is the most direct fit.

    *   "one of England's best female ringers" -> the ringers with the most positive qualities (specifically, the most skill).
    *   Sense 17: "(superlative of `good') having the most positive qualities".

    *   Sense 11 is "adept", and "good" is listed as a synonym.
    *   Sense 17 is "best", the superlative of "good".
    *   The target word is "best".
    *   Therefore, Sense 17 is the correct choice.

    *   Candidate senses:
        1.  `female%5:00:02:feminine:01`: characteristic of or peculiar to a woman (e.g., female sensitiveness).
        2.  `female%3:00:00::`: being the sex (of plant or animal) that produces fertilizable gametes (ova) from which offspring develop (e.g., a female heir).
        3.  `female%5:00:01:female:00`: for or pertaining to or composed of women or girls (e.g., the female lead in the play).

    *   The phrase is "female ringers".
    *   "Ringers" refers to people who ring church bells.
    *   "Female" here describes the gender of the people (ringers).

    *   Sense 1: "characteristic of or peculiar to a woman". This is an adjective describing a trait (e.g., "female intuition"). "Female ringers" doesn't mean the ringers are "characteristic of a woman"; it means the ringers *are* women.
    *   Sense 2: "being the sex (of plant or animal) that produces fertilizable gametes". This is the biological definition. While technically true, it's often used for animals or in a biological context. However, the example "a female heir" shows it can be used for humans.
    *   Sense 3: "for or pertaining to or composed of women or girls". Example: "the female lead in the play". This describes a role or a group defined by gender.

    *   Sense 2 ("being the sex...") is often used as an adjective to denote the sex of a person/animal.
    *   Sense 3 ("pertaining to or composed of women or girls") is often used for roles or groups.
    *   Comparing "female heir" (Sense 2) and "female lead" (Sense 3).
    *   "Female ringers" is very similar to "female lead" or "female athlete". It describes the person's gender.
    *   Wait, let's look closer at Sense 2: "being the sex...". This is the most direct way to describe a person's sex.
    *   Let's look at Sense 3: "for or pertaining to or composed of women or girls".
    *   In "female ringers", "female" is an adjective modifying "ringers".
    *   If I say "female doctor", is that Sense 2 or Sense 3?
    *   Sense 2: "being the sex...".
    *   Sense 3: "pertaining to... women".
    *   Actually, in many WordNet versions, "female" as an adjective meaning "of or pertaining to women" is Sense 3, while the biological sex is Sense 2.
    *   Let's re-evaluate "female heir" (Sense 2). An heir who is female.
    *   "Female ringers" -> Ringers who are female.
    *   "Female lead" (Sense 3) -> The lead role played by a female.
    *   Is "female ringers" more like "female heir" (a person of the female sex) or "female lead" (a role/group pertaining to women)?
    *   "Female ringers" refers to the people themselves.
    *   Let's check the definitions again.
    *   Sense 2: "being the sex... that produces fertilizable gametes".
    *   Sense 3: "for or pertaining to or composed of women or girls".
    *   "Female ringers" = ringers who are women. This fits "pertaining to women" or "composed of women" (if referring to the group) or simply the adjective describing the person.
    *   Actually, "female" in "female ringers" is used to specify the gender of the person.
    *   Looking at the examples:
        *   Sense 2: "a female heir" (a person who is female).
        *   Sense 3: "the female lead" (the role designated for a female).
    *   "Female ringers" is more like "female heir" (people who are female) than "female lead" (a role).

    *   Wait, let me re-read Sense 3: "for or pertaining to or composed of women or girls".
    *   If "female ringers" means "ringers who are women", does that fit "pertaining to women"? Yes.
    *   Does it fit "being the sex..."? Yes.
    *   Let's look at the distinction again.
    *   Sense 2 is the biological sex.
    *   Sense 3 is the social/categorical designation.
    *   In "female ringers", it's identifying them as women.
    *   Let's compare "female heir" (Sense 2) and "female lead" (Sense 3) again.
    *   An heir is a person. A lead is a role.
    *   A ringer is a person.
    *   Therefore, "female ringer" is most similar to "female heir".

    *   Sense 2: "being the sex (of plant or animal) that produces fertilizable gametes (ova) from which offspring develop"
    *   Sense 3: "for or pertaining to or composed of women or girls"
    *   Wait, "female lead" is a role *for* a woman. "Female ringers" are people who *are* women.
    *   If the example "female heir" is in Sense 2, then "female ringers" (people who are female) should also be Sense 2.

    *   Sense 1: characteristic of (feminine) - No.
    *   Sense 2: being the sex (biological/identity) - Yes (Example: female heir).
    *   Sense 3: pertaining to/composed of (role/group) - No (Example: female lead).

    *   "female ringers" -> ringers who are of the female sex.
    *   This matches Sense 2.

*   Target lemma: `stay`
    *   Target surface form: `stays`
    *   Context: "It is a passion that usually <t>stays</t> in the tower, however."
    *   Surrounding context: The text discusses the passion for bell ringing. It mentions that for ringers, the passion is intense, but it "usually stays in the tower," meaning the passion/obsession is confined to the activity of ringing bells in the belfry and doesn't necessarily spill over into other areas of their lives.

    *   1: fasten with stays (Incorrect - physical fastening)
    *   2: stay the same; remain in a certain state (Incorrect - not about state)
    *   3: stay put (in a certain place) (Possible - "stays in the tower")
    *   4: continue in a place, position, or situation (Possible - "stays in the tower")
    *   5: stop or halt (Incorrect)
    *   6: stop a judicial process (Incorrect)
    *   7: dwell (Incorrect - "passion" doesn't dwell like a person)
    *   8: stay behind / persist, remain (Possible - "The smell stayed in the room")
    *   9: remain behind (Incorrect - usually implies staying after others leave)
    *   10: hang on during a trial of endurance (Incorrect)
    *   11: overcome or allay (Incorrect)

    *   The sentence is: "It is a passion that usually stays in the tower, however."
    *   The "passion" is the subject.
    *   "Stays in the tower" means the passion remains confined to that location/activity.
    *   Sense 3: "stay put (in a certain place)" - usually used for people or physical objects.
    *   Sense 4: "continue in a place, position, or situation" - similar to 3.
    *   Sense 8: "stay behind | synonyms=persist, remain | examples=The smell stayed in the room; The hostility remained long after they made up" - This fits perfectly. A "passion" or "smell" or "hostility" (abstract or non-human entities) remaining in a place or persisting.

    *   Sense 3: "We are staying in Detroit" (People)
    *   Sense 4: "she stayed on in Cambridge" (People)
    *   Sense 8: "The smell stayed in the room" (Non-human entity remaining in a place).

    The "passion" is like the "smell" or "hostility" in Sense 8. It persists or remains within the confines of the tower.

    *   Sense 8: "stay behind | synonyms=persist, remain | examples=The smell stayed in the room"
    *   Context: "passion that usually stays in the tower"
    *   This matches the usage of an abstract quality or non-human entity remaining in a specific location.

*   Target lemma: "however"
    *   Context: "Ringing does become a bit of an obsession," admits Stephanie Pattenden... "It is a passion that usually stays in the tower, <t>however</t>. More often than not, ringers think of the church as something stuck on the bottom of the belfry."
    *   Analysis: The word "however" is used here to contrast the idea of ringing being an "obsession" (which might imply it permeates all aspects of life) with the fact that it "usually stays in the tower" (meaning it's confined to a specific place/activity). It functions as a contrast marker.

    *   Sense 1: "despite anything to the contrary (usually following a concession)" (Synonyms: nevertheless, still, yet).
    *   Sense 2: "in whatever way or manner" (Example: "however it was brought about").
    *   Sense 3: "by contrast; on the other hand" (Example: "the first part was easy; the second, however, took hours").
    *   Sense 4: "to whatever degree or extent" (Example: "however general").

    *   The sentence "It is a passion that usually stays in the tower, however" contrasts the previous statement about it being an obsession.
    *   Sense 1 (nevertheless) and Sense 3 (by contrast) are similar.
    *   Sense 1 is often used after a concession ("Although X, however Y").
    *   Sense 3 is used to introduce a contrasting point or a different side of the situation ("X; Y, however, ...").
    *   In this context, the author is contrasting the intensity of the passion (obsession) with its limited scope (stays in the tower). This fits "by contrast; on the other hand" (Sense 3) very well.

    *   Sentence A: "Ringing does become a bit of an obsession."
    *   Sentence B: "It is a passion that usually stays in the tower, however."
    *   This is a classic "on the other hand" or "by contrast" structure.

    *   Sense 1: "despite anything to the contrary" (Nevertheless).
    *   Sense 3: "by contrast; on the other hand".
    *   If we replace "however" with "nevertheless": "It is a passion that usually stays in the tower, nevertheless." (Possible, but slightly awkward).
    *   If we replace "however" with "on the other hand": "It is a passion that usually stays in the tower, on the other hand." (Fits perfectly).

    *   Sense 3 is the best fit.

        2.  `more%4:02:00::`: used to form the comparative of some adjectives and adverbs (e.g., "more interesting").

    *   The phrase is "More often than not".
    *   "Often" is an adverb.
    *   "More" is modifying "often" to create the comparative form "more often".

    *   Sense 1: Comparative of "much" (quantifier/adverb of degree).
    *   Sense 2: Used to form the comparative of adjectives and adverbs.

    *   In "more often", "more" is functioning as a marker to form the comparative of the adverb "often".
    *   Sense 2 specifically mentions "used to form the comparative of some adjectives and adverbs".
    *   Sense 1 is the comparative of "much" (e.g., "I like this more than that" or "he works more"). While "more often" can be seen as "to a greater extent often", the grammatical function here is specifically the comparative marker for the adverb "often".

    *   Wait, let's look closer.
    *   "More often than not" is an idiom meaning "usually".
    *   Grammatically, "more" modifies "often".
    *   Sense 2: "used to form the comparative of some adjectives and adverbs".
    *   Sense 1: "comparative of much; to a greater degree or extent".

    *   If I say "He works more", "more" is the comparative of "much" (Sense 1).
    *   If I say "He works more often", "more" is the comparative marker for "often" (Sense 2).

    *   In the sentence "More often than not...", "more" is modifying "often". Therefore, it is forming the comparative of the adverb "often".

    *   Sense 2 fits perfectly.

    *   The phrase is "More often than not".
    *   "More often than not" is an idiom meaning "usually" or "in most cases".
    *   It describes the frequency of a state or a tendency among a group of people (ringers).

    *   Sense 1 (`often%4:02:01::`): "frequently or in great quantities" (like "much"). This is usually used for uncountable quantities or intensity. Not a fit here.
    *   Sense 2 (`often%4:02:02::`): "in many cases or instances". This fits the meaning of "usually" or "more often than not" (i.e., in most instances, ringers think...).
    *   Sense 3 (`often%4:02:00::`): "many times at short intervals". This refers to repetition of an action over time (e.g., "we often met"). While "often" generally means frequently, the specific phrase "more often than not" refers to the probability or prevalence across cases rather than the repetition of a single event at short intervals.

    *   "More often than not" = "usually" = "in many cases".
    *   Sense 2 specifically addresses "cases or instances".
    *   Sense 3 addresses "times at short intervals".
    *   Comparing "In many cases, ringers think..." vs "Many times at short intervals, ringers think...", Sense 2 is the precise fit for the idiomatic usage here.

    *   Sense 2 (bolster/strengthen) doesn't fit "sweat".
    *   Sense 3 (form or accumulate steadily) usually refers to things like pressure or resistance. While sweat accumulates, "work up a sweat" is a standard idiom for developing that state.
    *   Sense 4 (come up with) doesn't fit.

    *   The phrase is "worked up a sweat".
    *   The context describes bell ringers performing a physical activity ("ringing", "worked up a sweat").
    *   "Worked up a sweat" typically means to engage in physical exertion to the point where one begins to perspire.

    *   Sense 1 (condensation) is incorrect.
    *   Sense 2 (hard work/effort) is related, but "worked up a sweat" usually refers to the physical result (perspiration) of the effort. However, let's look closer.
    *   Sense 3 (salty fluid/perspiration) is the literal meaning of the fluid produced.
    *   Sense 4 (worry/agitation) is incorrect.

    *   "Worked up a sweat" is an idiom. Does it mean they worked hard (Sense 2) or that they produced perspiration (Sense 3)?
    *   In most contexts, "working up a sweat" refers to the physical act of perspiring due to exertion.
    *   Comparing Sense 2 (effort/exertion) and Sense 3 (perspiration):

    *   If someone says "I worked up a sweat," they are usually referring to the physical state of perspiring.
    *   Let's check the phrase "work up a sweat". It means to exercise enough to start sweating.
    *   While it implies effort (Sense 2), the object of "work up" in this phrase is the sweat itself (the fluid).

    *   Sense 3 is the most direct fit for the noun "sweat" in "worked up a sweat".

    *   Sense 1: No.
    *   Sense 2: "Effort" - You don't "work up an effort" in the same way you "work up a sweat".

    *   Sense 4: No.

    *   The sentence is: "When their changes are completed, and after they have worked up a sweat, ringers often skip off to the local pub..."
    *   This describes a habitual action or a common occurrence among a group of people (ringers).
    *   It means that in many instances when ringers finish their changes, they go to the pub.

    *   Sense 1: "many times at short intervals". This usually refers to the frequency of a single subject's actions (e.g., "I often go there").
    *   Sense 2: "frequently or in great quantities" (synonyms: much, a great deal). This is usually used in negative sentences or questions (e.g., "I don't travel much"). Not applicable here.
    *   Sense 3: "in many cases or instances". This fits well when describing a general tendency of a group (ringers).

    *   Is it "many times at short intervals" (Sense 1) or "in many cases or instances" (Sense 3)?
    *   "Ringers often skip off to the local pub" means that it is common for ringers to do this. It's a general characteristic of the group's behavior in that specific situation.
    *   Sense 1 focuses on the temporal frequency of the event.
    *   Sense 3 focuses on the prevalence of the occurrence across different instances/cases.
    *   In this context, "often" is used to describe a common habit of the group. "In many cases" (Sense 3) fits slightly better for a general observation about a group's behavior, whereas "many times at short intervals" (Sense 1) is more about the repetition of the act.
    *   Wait, let's re-evaluate. "We often met over a cup of coffee" (Sense 1) is very similar to "Ringers often skip off to the local pub".
    *   Let's look at Sense 3 again: "in many cases or instances". Example: "Often, the best way to...".
    *   Actually, "often" in "ringers often skip off" is describing the frequency of the action.
    *   Let's compare:
        *   "Ringers frequently skip off..." (Sense 1)
        *   "In many cases, ringers skip off..." (Sense 3)
    *   Both are close. However, Sense 1 is the standard adverbial use for frequency of action. Sense 3 is often used as a sentence modifier (e.g., "Often, it happens that...").
    *   Looking at the sentence: "...ringers often skip off...". This is a standard frequency adverb.
    *   Let's re-read Sense 1: "many times at short intervals".
    *   Let's re-read Sense 3: "in many cases or instances".
    *   If I say "I often eat apples," I mean I do it many times (Sense 1).
    *   If I say "Often, people forget their keys," I mean in many cases (Sense 3).
    *   "Ringers often skip off to the local pub" is more like "I often eat apples" than "Often, people forget their keys." It describes the frequency of the action performed by the subject.

    *   Wait, let me double-check the WordNet definitions again.
    *   Sense 1: many times at short intervals.
    *   Sense 3: in many cases or instances.
    *   In the sentence "ringers often skip off", "often" modifies the verb "skip off".
    *   If it were "Often, ringers skip off", it would be Sense 3.
    *   Since it's "ringers often skip off", it's describing the frequency of the action.

    *   Let's look at the examples again.
    *   Sense 1: "we often met over a cup of coffee" (Subject + often + verb).
    *   Sense 3: (No example provided, but the definition is "in many cases or instances").
    *   The structure "ringers often skip off" matches the example for Sense 1 perfectly.

    *   Sense 1: many times at short intervals.
    *   Sense 2: much/a great deal (not this).
    *   Sense 3: in many cases or instances.
    *   The sentence "ringers often skip off to the local pub" means they do this frequently. This aligns with Sense 1.

    *   Wait, let me think about Sense 3 again. "In many cases or instances" can also describe a general habit.
    *   However, the position of "often" (between subject and verb) and the nature of the action (a repeated activity) strongly point to Sense 1.

    *   Sense 1: frequently, oftentimes.
    *   Sense 3: in many cases.
    *   "Ringers frequently skip off to the local pub" (Sense 1) vs "In many cases, ringers skip off to the local pub" (Sense 3).
    *   The first one is a more natural fit for the sentence structure.

    *   Target: "ringers often skip off"
    *   Sense 1: many times at short intervals.
    *   Sense 3: in many cases or instances.
    *   Actually, looking at how these are often distinguished in linguistic datasets, Sense 1 is the frequency of an event, and Sense 3 is the probability/generality of a situation.
    *   "Ringers often skip off" describes how frequently they do it.

    *   Wait, let me re-read the context. "More often than not, ringers think of the church as something stuck on the bottom of the belfry. When their changes are completed... ringers often skip off to the local pub..."
    *   The phrase "More often than not" (which means "usually" or "in most cases") precedes this. This sets a tone of describing general tendencies.
    *   Does "often" here mean "frequently" (Sense 1) or "in many cases" (Sense 3)?
    *   If I say "I often go to the gym," I mean I go frequently.
    *   If I say "It often rains in Seattle," I mean in many instances it rains.
    *   "Ringers often skip off" is very similar to "I often go to the gym."

    *   Let's check Sense 1 again: "many times at short intervals".
    *   Let's check Sense 3 again: "in many cases or instances".
    *   Actually, "many times at short intervals" might be too restrictive for "often" in this context (they don't go to the pub every few minutes, but rather every time they finish ringing).
    *   Wait, "many times at short intervals" is just a schematic way of saying "frequently".
    *   Let's look at Sense 3 again: "in many cases or instances". This is often used for "often" when it means "usually" or "commonly".
    *   "Ringers often skip off" = "In many cases, ringers skip off".

    *   Let's compare:
        1.  "We often met over a cup of coffee" (Sense 1)
        2.  "Ringers often skip off to the local pub"
    *   These are almost identical in structure and meaning.

    *   Let's double-check Sense 3 again. If Sense 3 is "in many cases or instances", it's often used as a sentence adverb (e.g., "Often, the results are inconclusive").
    *   In "ringers often skip off", "often" is an adverb of frequency.

    *   Let's re-verify Sense 1: "many times at short intervals".
    *   Is "many times at short intervals" the same as "frequently"? Yes.
    *   Is "ringers often skip off" the same as "ringers frequently skip off"? Yes.

    *   Let's re-verify Sense 3: "in many cases or instances".
    *   Is "ringers often skip off" the same as "in many cases, ringers skip off"? Yes.

    *   Which one is *better*?
    *   Sense 1's example "we often met over a cup of coffee" is a perfect structural match.
    *   Sense 1's synonyms "frequently, oftentimes" are perfect matches.

    *   Wait, let me search for WordNet's "often" senses.
    *   often%4:02:00: frequently
    *   often%4:02:01: much
    *   often%4:02:02: in many cases
    *   In many linguistic corpora, "often" as a frequency adverb (like in "I often go") is mapped to the "frequently" sense.

    *   Let's double-check the "short intervals" part of Sense 1. Does "short intervals" mean minutes, or does it just mean "repeatedly over time"? In WordNet, "short intervals" usually just means "frequently".

    *   Final check:
        *   Context: "ringers often skip off to the local pub"
        *   Sense 1: many times at short intervals (frequently)
        *   Sense 3: in many cases or instances
        *   The most direct synonym for "often" in this sentence is "frequently".

    *   Wait, let me think one more time. Is there any reason to prefer Sense 3?
        "More often than not, ringers think of the church as something stuck on the bottom of the belfry. When their changes are completed... ringers often skip off to the local pub..."
        The first sentence "More often than not" is a clear instance of "in many cases". The second sentence "ringers often skip off" is describing the frequency of the action.

    *   Let's look at the example for Sense 1 again: "we often met over a cup of coffee". This is a habitual action. "Ringers often skip off to the local pub" is also a habitual action.

    *   Therefore, Sense 1 is the best fit.

    *   Context: "...ringers often <t>skip</t> off to the local pub, leaving worship for others below."
    *   Candidate senses:
        1.  `jump lightly` (hop, hop-skip)
        2.  `intentionally fail to attend` (cut)
        3.  `bound off one point after another` (bound off)
        4.  `cause to skip over a surface` (skim, skitter)
        5.  `leave suddenly` (decamp, vamoose)
        6.  `bypass` (jump, pass over, skip over)

    *   The sentence is: "When their changes are completed, and after they have worked up a sweat, ringers often skip off to the local pub, leaving worship for others below."
    *   The phrase "skip off to" suggests a lighthearted, quick, or sudden departure.
    *   Sense 1 (`jump lightly`) describes the physical action of skipping.
    *   Sense 5 (`leave suddenly`) describes the act of departing quickly or secretly (decamp, vamoose).
    *   Looking at "skip off to the local pub", it implies leaving the church to go to the pub.
    *   Is it a physical skip (Sense 1) or a sudden departure (Sense 5)?
    *   "Skip off" is a common phrasal expression meaning to leave quickly and cheerfully.
    *   Comparing Sense 1 and Sense 5:
        *   Sense 1: `jump lightly` (physical movement).
        *   Sense 5: `leave suddenly` (decamp, vamoose).
    *   Wait, "skip off" often implies a lighthearted movement (Sense 1) but in the context of leaving a place, it can lean towards Sense 5. However, "decamp" and "vamoose" (Sense 5) are often more about escaping or leaving secretly/hurriedly.
    *   Let's re-evaluate Sense 1: `jump lightly`. "Skip off" often evokes the image of skipping (the physical action) as a sign of happiness or lightness of heart while leaving.
    *   Let's look at the context again: "leaving worship for others below." This suggests they are leaving the church.
    *   Is there a better fit?
        *   Sense 2: `intentionally fail to attend` (No, they were already there ringing bells).
        *   Sense 3: `bound off one point after another` (No).
        *   Sense 4: `cause to skip over a surface` (No).
        *   Sense 6: `bypass` (No).
    *   Between Sense 1 and Sense 5:
        *   "Skip off" is frequently used to mean leaving in a cheerful, lighthearted way. This aligns more with the physical action of skipping (Sense 1) used metaphorically or literally to show mood, rather than the "decamp/vamoose" (Sense 5) which implies a more hurried or secretive escape.
        *   However, in many dictionaries, "skip off" is listed as a way of leaving.
        *   Let's check Sense 1 again: `jump lightly`.
        *   Let's check Sense 5 again: `leave suddenly`.
        *   "Skip off to the pub" sounds more like a lighthearted departure than a sudden "decamp".
        *   Actually, looking at the options again, "skip off" is a very common idiom. If the choice is between "jump lightly" and "leave suddenly", "jump lightly" (Sense 1) captures the "skip" part of "skip off" better if it's meant lightheartedly. But "leave suddenly" (Sense 5) captures the "off" part (departure).
        *   Wait, "skip town" is an example for Sense 5. "Skip off to the pub" is similar to "skip town" in the sense of leaving, but the tone is different.
        *   Let's reconsider Sense 1. If someone "skips off", they are often literally or figuratively skipping.
        *   Let's look at the synonyms for Sense 5: `decamp`, `vamoose`. These are quite strong.
        *   Let's look at the synonyms for Sense 1: `hop`, `hop-skip`.
        *   Actually, "skip off" is often used to mean "leave quickly and cheerfully".
        *   If I have to choose the *best* indexed sense:
            *   Sense 1: jump lightly.
            *   Sense 5: leave suddenly.
        *   In the phrase "skip off to the local pub", the primary meaning is leaving.
        *   Let's search for "skip off" in a dictionary. Oxford says "leave a place, often in a cheerful or carefree way".
        *   Does "leave suddenly" (Sense 5) fit "leave in a cheerful way"? Not perfectly, but "decamp" can mean leave suddenly.
        *   Does "jump lightly" (Sense 1) fit? It describes the *manner* of leaving.
        *   Let's look at the options again. Is there any other?
        *   Sense 1: jump lightly.
        *   Sense 5: leave suddenly.
        *   If the ringers are "skipping off", they are leaving. The "off" indicates the departure.
        *   Comparing "skip town" (Sense 5) and "skip off to the pub", both involve leaving.
        *   However, "skip off" is more about the lightheartedness.
        *   Let's think about the WordNet structure. Often, "skip" meaning "leave" is grouped under the "decamp" sense.
        *   Let's re-read Sense 1: `jump lightly`.
        *   Let's re-read Sense 5: `leave suddenly`.
        *   "Skip off" = leave quickly/cheerfully.
        *   If I search for "skip off" in WordNet-based tools, it often maps to the "decamp" sense when it means leaving.
        *   Let's double-check. "Skip town" is the classic example for Sense 5. "Skip off to the pub" is very similar in structure (skip + destination).

    *   Sense 1: Physical action.
    *   Sense 5: Action of leaving.
    *   "Skip off to the local pub" is definitely about leaving. While it might be done *while* jumping lightly, the core meaning is the departure.

    *   Sense 5: `leave suddenly` | synonyms=decamp, vamoose | examples=She persuaded him to decamp; skip town.
    *   This seems the most plausible for "skip off to the local pub".

    *   Wait, let me think one more time. Is "skip off" just a lighthearted way of saying "go"?
    *   "When their changes are completed... ringers often skip off to the local pub".
    *   This means they leave the church and go to the pub.
    *   Is "leave suddenly" (Sense 5) the same as "leave cheerfully"?
    *   Actually, "skip off" is often used to describe someone leaving in a carefree manner.
    *   If Sense 1 is "jump lightly", it's a physical description.
    *   If Sense 5 is "leave suddenly", it's a description of the act of leaving.
    *   In the context of "skip off to the pub", the "off" is the key. "Skip" here functions as "leave".
    *   Therefore, Sense 5 is the most likely intended sense.
