Context: "5:09 a.m. JROE: The Sunset -LCB- District -RCB- was more or less like a pajama party all evening, lots of <t>people</t> & dogs walking around, drinking beer. 6:50 a.m."

Target word: people

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=people%1:14:00:: | definition=(plural) any group of human beings (men or women or children) collectively | examples=old people; there were at least 200 people in the audience

4. sense_key=people%1:14:03:: | definition=the common people generally | synonyms=multitude, masses, mass, hoi polloi, the great unwashed | examples=separate the warriors from the mass; power to the people

Analysis:
The context describes a social gathering ("pajama party all evening") where "lots of people & dogs walking around, drinking beer."

1. Sense 1: "any group of human beings (men or women or children) collectively." This fits perfectly. The people are attendees at a party.
2. Sense 2: "the body of citizens of a state or country." This is too formal and political for a casual party setting.
3. Sense 3: "members of a family line." This refers to ancestry or kin, which is irrelevant to a party crowd.
4. Sense 4: "the common people generally." While the attendees might be "common people," this sense usually implies a large, generalized population (e.g., "the common people suffered"). Sense 1 is a more direct and general description of a group of individuals present at an event.

Conclusion: Sense 1 is the best fit, referring to a general collection of human beings present at the event.

Analysis:
The context mentions "lots of people & dogs walking around, drinking beer."
The phrase "dogs walking around" strongly suggests actual animals.

Let's evaluate the senses:
1. **Sense 1 (Domestic animal):** "a member of the genus Canis... domesticated by man..." This fits perfectly with "dogs walking around" in a social setting (like a party/district).
2. **Sense 2 (Unpleasant woman):** Does not fit. People don't typically refer to groups of women as "dogs" when describing a casual gathering like this, especially when listing them alongside "people."
3. **Sense 3 (Man):** Does not fit.
4. **Sense 4 (Morally reprehensible person):** Does not fit.
5. **Sense 5 (Sausage):** Does not fit. Sausages don't walk around drinking beer.
6. **Sense 6 (Ratchet part):** Does not fit.
7. **Sense 7 (Fireplace support):** Does not fit.

Sense 1 is the only plausible meaning.

Conclusion: The best sense is sense_key=dog%1:05:00.

Analysis of the context:
"lots of people & dogs walking around, drinking beer."
The phrase describes people and dogs moving within a social setting (a pajama party/district). They are not specifically circumambulating an object (Sense 2). They are not described as having a specific manner or property (Sense 3). They are engaged in a social activity, likely moving freely or aimlessly within the area.

Comparing Sense 1 and Sense 4:
Sense 1: walk with no particular goal (perambulate, walk about). This fits the idea of people socializing and moving freely at a party.
Sense 4: walk randomly. This is similar to Sense 1, but "walk with no particular goal" (Sense 1) is a slightly broader and more neutral description of casual movement, which fits the social context better than emphasizing randomness.

Sense 1 ("walk with no particular goal") is the best fit for people and dogs moving casually in a social gathering.

Conclusion: Sense 1 is the best choice.

Target word: drinking (present participle of drink)

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=drink%2:34:00:: | definition=take in liquids | synonyms=imbibe | examples=The patient must drink several liters each day; The children like to drink soda

5. sense_key=drink%2:34:02:: | definition=drink excessive amounts of alcohol; be an alcoholic | synonyms=tope | examples=The husband drinks and beats his wife

Analysis:
The context states: "...lots of people & dogs walking around, drinking beer."
The action is "drinking beer." Beer is an alcoholic beverage.

Let's evaluate the senses:
1. sense_key=drink%2:34:00 (take in liquids): This is too general. While beer is a liquid, the context specifies beer, which points towards a more specific sense.
2. sense_key=drink%2:34:01 (consume alcohol): This fits perfectly. Beer is alcohol, and the action is consuming it.
3. sense_key=drink%2:34:12 (propose a toast to): This is incorrect. The people are consuming beer, not making a toast.
4. sense_key=drink%2:31:00 (be fascinated by): This is incorrect. The people are physically consuming beer.
5. sense_key=drink%2:34:02 (drink excessive amounts/be an alcoholic): While beer can be consumed excessively, the context simply states they are "drinking beer" in a casual setting ("pajama party"). This sense implies a pathological or excessive behavior, which is not supported by the neutral context.

Comparing Sense 2 and Sense 1:
Sense 1 (take in liquids) is accurate but weak.
Sense 2 (consume alcohol) is more precise because the object (beer) is specifically alcohol, and the synonyms (booze, fuddle) align with this specific consumption.

Therefore, sense_key=drink%2:34:01 is the best fit.

Wait, I need to check the provided JSON structure for the output. The instructions say: "Return only a JSON object exactly like {"sense_index": 3}."

I must map my chosen sense (Sense 2) to the index provided in the prompt.
Sense 1 -> Index 1
Sense 2 -> Index 2
Sense 3 -> Index 3
Sense 4 -> Index 4
Sense 5 -> Index 5

My choice is Sense 2, which corresponds to index 2.

Let me re-read the prompt instructions carefully regarding the output format.
"Return only a JSON object exactly like {"sense_index": 3}."

If I choose Sense 2, the output should be `{"sense_index": 2}`.

Let's confirm the mapping again.

Target lemma: sit_down
Target surface form: sitting down
Context: "I was just sitting down to meet with some new therapy clients, a couple, and the building started shaking like crazy."

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=sit_down%2:38:00:: | definition=take a seat | synonyms=sit
2. sense_key=sit_down%2:35:00:: | definition=show to a seat; assign a seat for | synonyms=seat, sit | examples=The host seated me next to Mrs. Smith
3. sense_key=sit_down%2:35:03:: | definition=be seated | synonyms=sit

Analysis of the context:
"I was just sitting down to meet with some new therapy clients..."
The speaker is preparing for a meeting. "Sitting down" here refers to the physical action of taking a seat or being in a seated position while waiting or starting the meeting.

Evaluation of senses:
1. sense_key=sit_down%2:38:00:: | definition=take a seat | synonyms=sit. This matches the action of the speaker preparing for the meeting.
2. sense_key=sit_down%2:35:00:: | definition=show to a seat; assign a seat for | synonyms=seat, sit. This is transitive (someone seats someone else). The context implies the speaker is performing the action on themselves ("I was just sitting down").
3. sense_key=sit_down%2:35:03:: | definition=be seated | synonyms=sit. This describes the state of being seated. While "sitting down" can lead to this state, the phrase "I was just sitting down to meet" often implies the action of settling into a seat before the activity begins.

Comparing 1 and 3:
Sense 1 ("take a seat") describes the action of initiating the seated position.
Sense 3 ("be seated") describes the resulting state.

In the phrase "I was just sitting down to meet," the focus is on the action of settling in (taking a seat) before the meeting starts. Sense 1, "take a seat," is the most accurate description of the intended meaning of the action.

Let's re-examine the candidates and the phrasing.
If the speaker meant they were already seated, they might say, "I was sitting to meet..." or "I was already seated when..."
The use of "sitting down" strongly suggests the transition into the seated position.

Therefore, Sense 1 (take a seat) is the best fit.

Wait, the instructions require me to return the JSON structure using the index of the chosen sense.
Sense 1 corresponds to index 1.

Let me double-check the provided indices in the prompt structure.
1. sense_key=sit_down%2:38:00:: | definition=take a seat | synonyms=sit
2. sense_key=sit_down%2:35:00:: | definition=show to a seat; assign a seat for | synonyms=seat, sit | examples=The host seated me next to Mrs. Smith
3. sense_key=sit_down%2:35:03:: | definition=be seated | synonyms=sit

I chose Sense 1. The index is 1.

Analysis of the context:
The speaker is sitting down and is about to "meet with some new therapy clients, a couple." This implies a scheduled or planned interaction with these clients.

Analysis of candidate senses:

1. sense_key=meet%2:38:01:: | definition=come together | synonyms=run into, encounter, run across, come across, see | Examples suggest chance encounters or general meetings.
2. sense_key=meet%2:41:01:: | definition=get together socially or for a specific purpose | synonyms=get together | This fits well. Meeting with therapy clients is a specific purpose interaction.

7. sense_key=meet%2:41:00:: | definition=collect in one place | synonyms=gather, assemble, forgather, foregather | Focuses on gathering objects or people in a location, less about the interaction itself.
8. sense_key=meet%2:41:03:: | definition=get to know; get acquainted with | Examples: "I met this really handsome guy at a bar last night!"; "we met in Singapore". This sense focuses on the process of becoming acquainted, which is highly relevant when meeting new clients.
9. sense_key=meet%2:38:06:: | definition=meet by design; be present at the arrival of | Examples: "Can you meet me at the train station?". This is about rendezvous/location, not the interaction with clients.
10. sense_key=meet%2:33:00:: | definition=contend against an opponent in a sport, game, or battle | Synonyms: encounter, play, take on. Not relevant.

13. sense_key=meet%2:35:00:: | definition=be in direct physical contact with; make contact | Synonyms: touch, adjoin, contact. Not relevant.

Comparing the best candidates (2, 8):

Candidate 2: "get together socially or for a specific purpose." (Meeting clients fits this perfectly.)
Candidate 8: "get to know; get acquainted with." (Meeting new clients implies this purpose, but the action itself is the scheduled interaction.)

In the context of a professional setting (therapy clients), "meeting with" usually implies a scheduled session or appointment for a specific purpose (therapy). While the ultimate goal is to get to know them (Sense 8), the immediate action described ("sitting down to meet with") is the formal engagement, which aligns strongly with Sense 2: "get together... for a specific purpose."

Sense 2 is broader and covers the professional appointment context better than Sense 8, which often implies a more casual or initial introduction.

Therefore, Sense 2 is the best fit.

Analysis:
The context is: "I was just sitting down to meet with some new therapy clients, a couple..."
The word "clients" refers to people who are receiving therapy.
"New clients" means clients who are recently starting therapy or are unfamiliar to the therapist.

Let's evaluate the candidates:
1. (not of long duration; having just come into being) - Possible, but usually applies to objects or concepts (a new law).
2. (original and of a kind not seen before) - Too strong. They are just new to the therapist, not necessarily unique in existence.
3. (lacking training or experience) - This sense applies to people who are inexperienced (e.g., raw recruits). While clients might be inexperienced, the primary meaning of "new clients" in this context is that they are *new to the therapist*.
4. (unprecedented) - Incorrect.
5. (other than the former one(s); different) - Incorrect.
6. (unaffected by use or exposure) - Incorrect.
7. (gratuitously new/newfangled) - Incorrect.
8. (late/historical period) - Incorrect.
9. (late/language stage) - Incorrect.
10. (early/crops) - Incorrect.
11. (unfamiliar) - This sense means "unfamiliar" or "not previously encountered." When applied to people (clients), it means they are unfamiliar to the speaker/therapist. This fits perfectly with "new therapy clients."

Comparing 3 and 11:
Sense 3: "lacking training or experience" (e.g., new men/raw recruits). This describes the *quality* of the clients.
Sense 11: "unfamiliar" (e.g., new experiences). This describes the *relationship* between the clients and the therapist (they are new to the therapist).

In the phrase "new therapy clients," the intended meaning is that they are clients the therapist has not met before. Sense 11, "unfamiliar," captures this sense of being previously unencountered, which is the most accurate interpretation here.

Therefore, sense_key=new%5:00:00:unaccustomed:00 is the best fit.

Thinking Process:

1.  **Analyze the Target Word and Context:**
    *   Target surface form: `clients` (plural of `client`).
    *   Context: "I was just sitting down to meet with some new therapy <t>clients</t>, a couple, and the building started shaking like crazy."
    *   Key information: The clients are being met with in a "therapy" setting.

2.  **Analyze the Candidate Senses:**
    *   Sense 1: `client%1:18:00` | definition=a person who seeks the advice of a lawyer. (Legal context)
    *   Sense 2: `client%1:18:01` | definition=someone who pays for goods or services | synonyms=customer. (Commercial/Service context)
    *   Sense 3: `client%1:06:00` | definition=(computer science) any computer that is hooked up to a computer network | synonyms=node, guest. (Technical/Computing context)

3.  **Match Context to Senses:**
    *   The context involves "therapy."
    *   Sense 1 (Lawyer): While therapy is a professional service, the specific definition is limited to legal advice. This is unlikely.
    *   Sense 2 (Customer/Payer): This is a general service definition. Therapy clients are customers of the therapist, but this sense is very broad.
    *   Sense 3 (Computer): This is clearly incorrect based on the surrounding words ("therapy," "couple").

4.  **Refine the Choice (Sense 1 vs. Sense 2):**
    *   The context is "therapy clients." Therapy is a form of professional service where a person seeks help/advice from a professional (therapist).
    *   Sense 1 focuses specifically on *legal* advice.
    *   Sense 2 focuses on *paying* for goods/services (customer).
    *   While Sense 2 is technically correct (they pay for therapy), Sense 1's definition ("a person who seeks the advice of a lawyer") captures the *relationship* of seeking professional help/advice, which is the core function of a therapy client, even if the specific profession (lawyer vs. therapist) differs.
    *   *Self-Correction/Re-evaluation:* In many linguistic databases, the sense for "client" that encompasses professional service recipients (doctors, therapists, consultants) is often grouped with the "seeker of advice" sense (Sense 1), even if the definition provided is narrowly focused on lawyers. However, Sense 2 ("someone who pays for goods or services") is the most universally applicable definition for *any* service recipient, including therapy.

5.  **Re-examining the provided definitions and constraints:**
    *   Sense 1: Lawyer's client (Seeker of advice).
    *   Sense 2: Customer (Payer for goods/services).
    *   The context is "therapy clients." Therapy is a service. The clients are receiving a service. Sense 2 fits perfectly as a general service recipient.
    *   If the database intended Sense 1 to cover all professional advice seekers, it would likely be phrased more broadly. Given the strict definitions provided, Sense 2 (customer/service recipient) is the most accurate fit for a therapy setting.

6.  **Final Selection:** Sense 2.

7.  **Format Output:** JSON object.

Context: "I was just sitting down to meet with some new therapy clients, a <t>couple</t>, and the building started shaking like crazy."

Target word: couple

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=couple%1:14:00:: | definition=a pair who associate with one another | synonyms=twosome, duo, duet | examples=the engaged couple; an inseparable twosome (Refers to people in a relationship/group)
2. sense_key=couple%1:14:01:: | definition=a pair of people who live together | synonyms=mates, match | examples=a married couple from Chicago (Specific type of relationship)

5. sense_key=couple%1:17:00:: | definition=(physics) something joined by two equal and opposite forces that act along parallel lines (Technical/Physics term)

Analysis of the context:
"I was just sitting down to meet with some new therapy clients, a couple, and the building started shaking..."

The word "couple" follows "some new therapy clients," indicating it refers to a small group of people who are clients.

Evaluating the senses:
1. Sense 1 (a pair who associate with one another): This fits "a couple" meaning two people, which is a small group.
2. Sense 2 (a pair of people who live together): This is too specific (married/cohabiting) and doesn't fit the general context of "new therapy clients."
3. Sense 3 (a small indefinite number): This sense means "a few" or "some." "A couple" is often used idiomatically to mean "a small number" (e.g., "a couple of people"). This fits the context of "some new therapy clients."
4. Sense 4 (two items of the same kind): This refers to objects (e.g., a couple of shoes), not people in this context.
5. Sense 5 (Physics): Irrelevant.

Comparing Sense 1 and Sense 3:
Sense 1 focuses on the *nature* of the pair (associating).
Sense 3 focuses on the *quantity* (a small indefinite number).

In the phrase "a couple [of clients]," the function is quantifying the number of clients. While "a couple" technically means two (a pair), Sense 3 captures the common usage where "a couple" is used as a quantifier for a small, unspecified number (often implying two, but sometimes more, depending on context, though here it likely means two).

However, let's look closely at the structure: "a couple [of clients]".
If we interpret "a couple" strictly as "two people" (Sense 1 or Sense 4), it means exactly two clients.
If we interpret "a couple" as "a small number" (Sense 3), it means a small number of clients.

Since the context is "some new therapy clients," using "a couple" strongly suggests a small, countable group. Sense 3, "a small indefinite number," is the most encompassing and idiomatic fit for this usage, especially when contrasted with the highly specific definitions of Sense 1 (relationship) and Sense 4 (objects).

Let's re-examine Sense 1: "a pair who associate with one another." This is accurate if the couple are clients together.
Let's re-examine Sense 3: "a small indefinite number." This is accurate if the speaker is generalizing the small size of the group.

In common English usage, when referring to a small group of people (like clients), "a couple" functions as a quantifier meaning "two" or "a few." Sense 3 captures the quantifier aspect best.

If I must choose the *best* fit, Sense 3 ("a small indefinite number") covers the function of "a couple" as a quantifier in this sentence structure ("a couple [of clients]").

Let's confirm the index mapping:
Sense 3: definition=a small indefinite number.

This is the best fit.

Analysis:
The context describes a physical object ("the building") that is shaking and is characterized as "a flimsy structure, built up on supports, and it was really rocking around."

*   Sense 1: "a structure that has a roof and walls and stands more or less permanently in one place." This perfectly matches the description of a physical structure that can shake.
*   Sense 2: "the act of constructing something." This is an action (gerund/noun of process), not the physical object that is shaking.
*   Sense 3: "the commercial activity involved in repairing old structures or constructing new ones." This is an industry/activity, not the physical object.
*   Sense 4: "the occupants of a building." This refers to people, which cannot "start shaking like crazy" in this manner.

Conclusion: Sense 1 is the correct interpretation.

The instructions require me to return a JSON object with the sense index.
Sense 1 corresponds to index 1.

The user wants me to perform Word Sense Disambiguation for the word "started" in the given context.
The target lemma is "start".
The context is: "I was just sitting down to meet with some new therapy clients, a couple, and the building started shaking like crazy. It's a flimsy structure, built up on supports, and it was really rocking around."

The word "started" is used here to describe the action of the building. The building began to shake.

Let's examine the candidate senses:

1. sense_key=start%2:30:00:: | definition=take the first step or steps in carrying out an action | synonyms=get down, begin, get, start out, set about, set out | (Relates to human action/process initiation) - Unlikely for a building shaking.
2. sense_key=start%2:30:01:: | definition=set in motion, cause to start | synonyms=begin, lead off, commence | (Causation/Initiation) - Possible, but usually implies an external force causing the motion.
3. sense_key=start%2:38:02:: | definition=leave | synonyms=depart, part, start out, set forth, set off, set out | (Departure) - Incorrect.
4. sense_key=start%2:42:00:: | definition=have a beginning, in a temporal, spatial, or evaluative sense | synonyms=begin | (Beginning/Onset) - Possible, but usually for events or periods.
5. sense_key=start%2:36:00:: | definition=bring into being | synonyms=originate, initiate | (Creation) - Incorrect.
6. sense_key=start%2:36:01:: | definition=get off the ground | synonyms=start up, embark on, commence | (Initiation of enterprise) - Incorrect.
7. sense_key=start%2:38:04:: | definition=move or jump suddenly, as if in surprise or alarm | synonyms=startle, jump | (Sudden movement/reaction) - This sense usually applies to animate beings reacting to stimuli. While a building can move suddenly, the definition focuses on the *reaction* (startle/jump).
8. sense_key=start%2:38:01:: | definition=get going or set in motion | synonyms=start up | (Mechanical/System initiation) - This is often used for engines or processes (e.g., "start up the computer").
9. sense_key=start%2:38:00:: | definition=begin or set in motion | synonyms=go, get going | (General initiation of movement/action) - This is a very general sense of beginning motion.
10. sense_key=start%2:41:00:: | definition=begin work or acting in a certain capacity, office or job | synonyms=take up | (Employment) - Incorrect.
11. sense_key=start%2:33:00:: | definition=play in the starting lineup | (Sports) - Incorrect.
12. sense_key=start%2:42:03:: | definition=have a beginning characterized in some specified way | synonyms=begin | (Specific onset) - Too abstract for the physical action of shaking.
13. sense_key=start%2:41:04:: | definition=begin an event that is implied and limited by the nature or inherent function of the direct object | synonyms=begin | (Specific action initiation, e.g., starting soup) - Incorrect.
14. sense_key=start%2:38:03:: | definition=bulge outward | synonyms=protrude, pop, pop out, bulge, bulge out, bug out | (Physical protrusion) - Incorrect.

The building "started shaking". This means the shaking motion began.

Sense 9: "begin or set in motion" (synonyms: go, get going). This fits the idea of the motion (shaking) commencing.
Sense 2: "set in motion, cause to start" (synonyms: begin, lead off, commence). This also fits, emphasizing the initiation of the motion.

Comparing 2 and 9:
Sense 9 is very general ("begin or set in motion").
Sense 2 is slightly more formal/causal ("set in motion, cause to start").

Since the building itself is the subject and the shaking is an inherent action of the structure (it started shaking, implying the structure began to shake), Sense 9 ("begin or set in motion") seems the most appropriate general description of the onset of motion. Sense 2 often implies an external agent causing the start, although it can be used generally.

Let's re-evaluate Sense 9: "I start at eight in the morning; Ready, set, go!" -> This emphasizes the commencement of an action or state. The building started the state of shaking.

Let's re-evaluate Sense 2: "The U.S. started a war in the Middle East; The Iraqis began hostilities." -> This emphasizes the initiation of a process or conflict.

In the context of a physical object beginning a motion (shaking), Sense 9 ("begin or set in motion") is the most neutral and accurate description of the onset of that motion.

I choose Sense 9.

reasoning_content:
The user wants me to perform Word Sense Disambiguation for the word "shaking" (the present participle of "shake") based on the provided context and candidate senses.

Context: "I was just sitting down to meet with some new therapy clients, a couple, and the building started <t>shaking</t> like crazy. It's a flimsy structure, built up on supports, and it was really rocking around."

Target word: shaking (referring to the building).

Analysis of the context:
1. The subject is "the building."
2. The action is "shaking like crazy."
3. The subsequent description confirms the nature of the movement: "It's a flimsy structure, built up on supports, and it was really rocking around."

This indicates a physical, structural movement of the building.

Evaluation of candidate senses:

1. sense_key=shake%2:38:00:: | definition=move or cause to move back and forth | synonyms=agitate | examples=The chemist shook the flask vigorously; My hands were shaking
    * This is a general movement sense. "Back and forth" fits, but let's check others.

2. sense_key=shake%2:29:00:: | definition=move with or as if with a tremor | synonyms=didder | examples=his hands shook
    * This usually applies to small, involuntary movements (like hands). While a building can tremble, this sense is often used for biological tremors.

3. sense_key=shake%2:38:01:: | definition=shake or vibrate rapidly and intensively | synonyms=judder | examples=The old engine was juddering
    * This describes rapid, intense vibration. This fits the idea of a building shaking "like crazy."

4. sense_key=shake%2:38:02:: | definition=move back and forth or sideways | synonyms=rock, sway | examples=the ship was rocking; the tall building swayed
    * This sense explicitly includes "rock" and "sway" as synonyms and provides the example "the tall building swayed." The context states the building was "rocking around." This is a very strong match.

5. sense_key=shake%2:30:00:: | definition=undermine or cause to waver | examples=my faith has been shaken; The bad news shook her hopes
    * Figurative sense (emotional/abstract). Incorrect.

6. sense_key=shake%2:37:00:: | definition=stir the feelings, emotions, or peace of | synonyms=stimulate, shake up, excite, stir | examples=These stories shook the community; the civil war shook the country
    * Figurative sense (emotional/abstract). Incorrect.

7. sense_key=shake%2:38:04:: | definition=get rid of | synonyms=shake off, throw off, escape from | examples=I couldn't shake the car that was following me
    * Incorrect (transitive, meaning to dislodge).

8. sense_key=shake%2:30:01:: | definition=bring to a specified condition by or as if by shaking | examples=He was shaken from his dreams; shake the salt out of the salt shaker
    * Incorrect (causative/process).

9. sense_key=shake%2:32:00:: | definition=shake (a body part) to communicate a greeting, feeling, or cognitive state | examples=shake one's head; She shook her finger at the naughty students
    * Incorrect (gesture).

Comparing the best physical movement senses (1, 3, 4):
* Sense 1: General movement.
* Sense 3: Rapid, intensive vibration (judder).
* Sense 4: Move back and forth or sideways (rock, sway).

The context uses "shaking like crazy" and immediately follows up with "it was really rocking around." Sense 4, which includes "rock" and "sway" and describes movement back and forth or sideways, is the most precise fit for the physical description provided in the text.

Therefore, sense_key=shake%2:38:02 is the best choice.

Context: "I was just sitting down to meet with some new therapy clients, a couple, and the building started shaking like crazy. It's a <t>flimsy</t> structure, built up on supports, and it was really rocking around."

Target word: flimsy

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=flimsy%5:00:01:weak:00 | definition=lacking solidity or strength | examples=a flimsy table; flimsy construction
2. sense_key=flimsy%3:00:02:: | definition=not convincing | synonyms=unconvincing | examples=unconvincing argument; as unconvincing as a forced smile

Analysis:
The word "flimsy" modifies "structure." The context describes the structure shaking ("started shaking like crazy," "it was really rocking around"). This suggests a physical weakness or lack of strength in the building.

1. Sense 1: definition=lacking solidity or strength. Examples: "a flimsy table; flimsy construction." This perfectly matches the idea of a weak, unstable building structure.
2. Sense 2: definition=not convincing. This relates to arguments or claims, not physical structures. (Irrelevant)
3. Sense 3: definition=lacking substance or significance. Synonyms include "fragile, slight, tenuous." While "fragile" relates to physical weakness, the primary focus of this sense seems to be abstract lack of substance (e.g., "tenuous argument," "slight evidence"). However, Sense 1 is much more direct and specific to physical construction/solidity.

Conclusion: Sense 1, meaning "lacking solidity or strength," is the best fit for describing a shaking building structure.

The instruction requires me to return a JSON object with the sense index.
Sense 1 corresponds to index 1.

The word "structure" refers to the physical building itself.

Let's evaluate the senses:
1. sense_key=structure%1:06:00: "a thing constructed; a complex entity constructed of many parts." This perfectly matches a building. Synonyms include "construction."
2. sense_key=structure%1:07:00: "the manner of construction... and the arrangement of its parts." This refers to design or organization, not the physical object itself.
3. sense_key=structure%1:09:00: "the complex composition of knowledge." Irrelevant (abstract/cognitive).
4. sense_key=structure%1:08:00: "a particular complex anatomical part of a living thing." Irrelevant (biological).
5. sense_key=structure%1:14:00: "the people in a society considered as a system." Irrelevant (sociological).

Sense 1 is the best fit, as it refers to a physical, constructed entity (the building).

The required output format is a JSON object with the sense index.
Sense 1 corresponds to index 1.

The user wants me to perform Word Sense Disambiguation for the word "supports" in the given context.
The target lemma is "support".
The target surface form is "supports".
Context: "It's a flimsy structure, built up on <t>supports</t>, and it was really rocking around."

I need to analyze the context to determine the meaning of "supports".
The word "supports" is used in relation to a "flimsy structure" and describes what it is "built up on". This strongly suggests a physical, structural element that holds the building up.

Let's examine the candidate senses:

1. sense_key=support%1:04:04: Financial provision/maintenance. (Irrelevant)
2. sense_key=support%1:04:00: Aiding a cause/policy. (Irrelevant)
3. sense_key=support%1:09:00: Immaterial assistance. (Irrelevant)
4. sense_key=support%1:04:03: Military operation/reinforcement. (Irrelevant)
5. sense_key=support%1:04:02: Documentary validation. (Irrelevant)
6. sense_key=support%1:21:00: Financial means of living/livelihood. (Irrelevant)
7. sense_key=support%1:06:01: Supporting structure that holds up or provides a foundation. (Highly relevant: "built up on supports" in a structure.)
8. sense_key=support%1:04:01: The act of bearing the weight of or strengthening. (Possible, but the context uses "supports" as a noun describing the physical components, not the action.)
9. sense_key=support%1:10:01: Musical part. (Irrelevant)
10. sense_key=support%1:06:00: Any device that bears the weight of another thing. (Highly relevant: A physical device/component holding weight.)
11. sense_key=support%1:21:01: Financial resources/funding. (Irrelevant)

Comparing 7 and 10:
7. definition=supporting structure that holds up or provides a foundation. Example: "the statue stood on a marble support".
10. definition=any device that bears the weight of another thing. Example: "there was no place to attach supports for a shelf".

The context is: "It's a flimsy structure, built up on supports..."
This refers to the foundational or load-bearing elements of the building. Both 7 and 10 fit the physical nature of the supports. Sense 7, "supporting structure that holds up or provides a foundation," is a very precise match for the role of supports in a building's construction. Sense 10 is slightly broader ("any device that bears the weight"), but Sense 7 captures the architectural/foundational aspect better.

I choose sense 7 as the best fit.

2. sense_key=rock%2:38:06:: | definition=cause to move back and forth | synonyms=sway | examples=rock the cradle; rock the baby

Analysis:
The context describes a building that is "shaking like crazy." The phrase is "it was really rocking around."
The action described is the building moving due to external forces (implied by "shaking like crazy").

Sense 1: "move back and forth or sideways" (synonyms: sway, shake). Examples include "the ship was rocking" and "the tall building swayed."
This perfectly matches the context: the building is moving back and forth/sideways (rocking) because it is shaking.

Sense 2: "cause to move back and forth" (synonyms: sway). Examples include "rock the cradle" (an action performed on an object).
This sense implies agency (something is causing the rocking), but in the context, the building itself is the thing moving (it *is* rocking), not necessarily being actively caused to rock by an external agent mentioned in the immediate vicinity. While the shaking is the cause, the word "rocking" here describes the state of motion of the building.

Conclusion: Sense 1, describing the state of moving back and forth or sideways (swaying/shaking), is the best fit for the building's movement.

I need to return the result in the specified JSON format, using the index of the chosen sense.
Sense 1 corresponds to index 1.

reasoning_content:
The user wants me to perform Word Sense Disambiguation for the word "stopped" in the given context.
The target lemma is "stop".
The context is: "The three of us stopped breathing for a moment, and then when it kept on coming we lunged for the doorway."

The phrase is "stopped breathing". This refers to a temporary cessation of the action of breathing, likely due to shock or fear caused by the building shaking.

Let's analyze the candidate senses:

1. sense_key=stop%2:38:00:: | definition=come to a halt, stop moving | synonyms=halt | examples=the car stopped; She stopped in front of a store window
    * This relates to physical movement stopping. "Stopped breathing" is a cessation of a biological function, which is a form of stopping movement/action.

2. sense_key=stop%2:42:00:: | definition=put an end to a state or an activity | synonyms=discontinue, cease, give up, quit, lay off | examples=Quit teasing your little brother
    * This fits well. Breathing is an activity/state. "Stopped breathing" means ceasing that activity.

3. sense_key=stop%2:41:00:: | definition=stop from happening or developing | synonyms=halt, block, kibosh | examples=Block his election; Halt the process
    * This means preventing something from starting or continuing. While related, the context implies the action *itself* ceased, not that they actively prevented it from happening (though the cessation is a result of the event).

4. sense_key=stop%2:38:02:: | definition=interrupt a trip | synonyms=stop over | examples=we stopped at Aunt Mary's house; they stopped for three days in Florence
    * Irrelevant (travel).

5. sense_key=stop%2:38:01:: | definition=cause to stop | examples=stop a car; stop the thief
    * This is causative ("cause to stop"), but the context uses "stopped" as the action performed by "us" (the subject), so it is intransitive here.

6. sense_key=stop%2:30:05:: | definition=prevent completion | synonyms=break, break off, discontinue | examples=stop the project; break off the negotiations
    * Similar to sense 3, focusing on preventing completion.

7. sense_key=stop%2:33:00:: | definition=hold back, as of a danger or an enemy; check the expansion or influence of | synonyms=check, turn back, arrest, contain, hold back | examples=Arrest the downward trend; Check the growth of communism in South East Asia
    * Irrelevant (restraint/containment).

8. sense_key=stop%2:35:00:: | definition=seize on its way | synonyms=intercept | examples=The fighter plane was ordered to intercept an aircraft that had entered the country's airspace
    * Irrelevant (intercepting).

9. sense_key=stop%2:42:13:: | definition=have an end, in a temporal, spatial, or quantitative sense; either spatial or metaphorical | synonyms=end, finish, terminate, cease | examples=the bronchioles terminate in a capillary bed; Your rights stop where you infringe upon the rights of other
    * This is usually used transitively or as a state ("The road stops here"). While "cease" is a synonym, the primary meaning here is the cessation of an activity.

10. sense_key=stop%2:35:12:: | definition=render unsuitable for passage | synonyms=barricade, block, blockade, block off, block up, bar | examples=block the way; barricade the streets
    * Irrelevant (blocking passage).

11. sense_key=stop%2:30:12:: | definition=stop and wait, as if awaiting further instructions or developments | synonyms=hold on | examples=Hold on a moment!
    * Irrelevant (pausing movement/action).

Comparing the best candidates:
Sense 1 (come to a halt, stop moving): Applicable, as breathing is movement/action.
Sense 2 (put an end to a state or an activity): Highly applicable. Breathing is an activity/state, and "stopped breathing" means ceasing that activity.

Sense 2 seems the most precise fit for the biological/physiological context of "stopped breathing." It captures the idea of ceasing an ongoing process or state.

I will choose sense 2.
