Target lemma: notice
Target surface form: noticed
Context:
His spine crawled with a foreboding premonition as he asked one of his fellow tenants what had happened. The landlord had died. Late that afternoon, it seemed, he had fallen off the roof while on some obscure errand or inspection. He had apparently been alone. Nobody witnessed the fall -- just the sickening impact when his body smashed on the pavement just outside the basement delivery entrance. Haney hoped that nobody <t>noticed</t> his sudden pallor, as he felt the blood drain from his cheeks. He muttered something about how terrible it was, and walked with deliberate slowness to the elevator.

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=notice%2:39:04:: | definition=discover or determine the existence, presence, or fact of | synonyms=detect, observe, find, discover | examples=She detected high levels of lead in her drinking water; We found traces of lead in the paint

raw_output:
To determine the best sense for "noticed" in the given context, we analyze the sentence:

> "He hoped that nobody **noticed** his sudden pallor..."

The key phrase here is "nobody noticed his sudden pallor." The speaker, Haney, is concerned that others will perceive or become aware of his physical reaction (sudden pallor). This aligns with the definition of "notice" as **to perceive or become aware of something**.

Let's evaluate the candidate senses:

1. **Discover or determine the existence, presence, or fact of** (detect, observe, find, discover)
   - This sense implies finding or identifying something, which doesn't fit the context of perceiving a personal reaction.

2. **Notice or perceive** (mark, note)
   - This sense directly matches the idea of perceiving or becoming aware of Haney's pallor, which is exactly what the sentence conveys.

3. **Make or write a comment on** (comment, remark, point out)
   - This sense involves commenting or remarking, which is not relevant to the context of perceiving a physical change.

4. **Express recognition of the presence or existence of, or acquaintance with** (acknowledge)
   - This sense involves formally recognizing or acknowledging something, which is broader and more formal than the casual perception implied here.

Given the context, the most appropriate sense is **sense_key=notice%2:39:00::**, which means "notice or perceive." This sense best captures Haney's concern that others will perceive his pallor.

Therefore, the best indexed sense is:

```json
{"sense_index": 2}
```

To determine the best sense for "felt" in the given context, we analyze the sentence:

> "He muttered something about how terrible it was, and walked with deliberate slowness to the elevator. Haney hoped that nobody noticed his sudden pallor, as he **felt** the blood drain from his cheeks."

The phrase "felt the blood drain from his cheeks" indicates a **physical sensation**—Haney is perceiving a bodily change (the sensation of blood draining, likely due to shock or fright). This aligns with the definition of perceiving a physical sensation through the body, such as feeling a change in one's own physiology.

Reviewing the candidate senses:

1. **sense_key=feel%2:37:00::** - Emotional sensation or state of mind (e.g., "She felt resentful"). This does not match the physical description.
2. **sense_key=feel%2:31:00::** - Belief based on emotion or intuition (e.g., "I feel that he doesn't like me"). Not applicable here.
3. **sense_key=feel%2:39:00::** - **Perceive by a physical sensation, e.g., coming from the skin or muscles** (e.g., "He felt the wind"). This matches the physical sensation of blood draining from cheeks.
4. **sense_key=feel%2:29:00::** - Be conscious of a mental or emotional state (e.g., "I feel fine today"). Less specific to the physical sensation described.
5. **sense_key=feel%2:31:01::** - Reaction to someone's behavior (e.g., "She felt small"). Not relevant.
6. **sense_key=feel%2:39:01::** - Undergo passive experience (e.g., "We felt the effects of inflation"). Too broad and not specific to the physical sensation.
7. **sense_key=feel%2:42:00::** - Be felt or perceived in a certain way (e.g., "The ground feels shaky"). Not the best fit for the bodily sensation.
8. **sense_key=feel%2:39:10::** - Grope or feel in search of something. Irrelevant.
9. **sense_key=feel%2:35:00::** - Examine by touch. Not applicable.
10. **sense_key=feel%2:35:01::** - Examine a body part by palpation. Not the context.
11. **sense_key=feel%2:40:00::** - Find by testing or cautious exploration. Not relevant.
12. **sense_key=feel%2:39:09::** - Produce a certain impression. Not the focus.
13. **sense_key=feel%2:35:11::** - Pass one's hands over sexual organs. Clearly irrelevant.

The best match is **sense_key=feel%2:39:00::**, which describes perceiving a physical sensation, fitting the context of Haney feeling the blood drain from his cheeks.

Thus, the correct sense index is 3.

raw_output:
To determine the best sense for "walked" in the given context, we analyze the sentence:

> "He muttered something about how terrible it was, and **walked** with deliberate slowness to the elevator."

The key aspects of the context are:
- The action follows a statement about feeling terrible.
- The manner of walking is described as "with deliberate slowness."
- The purpose is to move to the elevator.

Now, let's evaluate the candidate senses:

1. **use one's feet to advance; advance by steps** - General definition of walking.
2. **accompany or escort** - Implies walking someone else, which doesn't fit.
3. **obtain a base on balls** - Irrelevant to the context.
4. **traverse or cover by walking** - Fits the idea of moving from one place to another (to the elevator) by walking.
5. **give a base on balls to** - Irrelevant.
6. **live or behave in a specified manner** - Could imply a metaphorical sense, but the context is literal movement.
7. **be or act in association with** - Not applicable.
8. **walk at a pace** - Mentions pace, but doesn't emphasize the act of moving to a specific destination.
9. **make walk** - Implies causing someone to walk, which is not the case here.
10. **take a walk; go for a walk; walk for pleasure** - Suggests walking for leisure, which doesn't match the deliberate, purposeful movement described.

The context emphasizes the act of moving deliberately to a specific location (the elevator), which aligns best with **sense_key=walk%2:38:03::** (traverse or cover by walking). This sense captures the idea of walking to a destination with a specific manner.

Therefore, the best indexed sense is:

Target lemma: deliberate
Target surface form: deliberate
Context:
The landlord had died. Late that afternoon, it seemed, he had fallen off the roof while on some obscure errand or inspection. He had apparently been alone. Nobody witnessed the fall -- just the sickening impact when his body smashed on the pavement just outside the basement delivery entrance. Haney hoped that nobody noticed his sudden pallor, as he felt the blood drain from his cheeks. He muttered something about how terrible it was, and walked with <t>deliberate</t> slowness to the elevator. Once inside his apartment, he poured a drink with trembling hands and flopped limply in a chair.

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=deliberate%5:00:00:intended:00 | definition=carefully thought out in advance | synonyms=calculated, measured | examples=a calculated insult; with measured irony
2. sense_key=deliberate%5:00:00:unhurried:00 | definition=unhurried and with care and dignity | synonyms=careful, measured | examples=walking at the same measured pace; with all deliberate speed

2. WordNet glosses are schematic; use the context, synonyms, and examples together.
3. Do not answer with a WordNet sense key.
4. Return only a JSON object exactly like {"sense_index": 3}.

raw_output:
The context describes Haney walking "with <t>deliberate</t> slowness" after witnessing a fall. The phrase "deliberate slowness" suggests a purposeful, unhurried manner, emphasizing careful and dignified movement rather than a carefully planned action. The synonym "measured" in the second sense aligns with this unhurried, careful pacing. Therefore, the best sense is the one describing an unhurried, careful manner.

The second sense matches this interpretation:

- **Definition:** unhurried and with care and dignity
- **Synonyms:** careful, measured
- **Example:** walking at the same measured pace; with all deliberate speed

Thus, the best indexed sense is the second one.

raw_output:
The context describes Haney walking "with deliberate slowness" to the elevator. This indicates a purposeful, unhurried pace rather than a lack of skill, mental development, or general sluggishness.

Therefore, the best sense is:

**Definition: a rate demonstrating an absence of haste or hurry**
**Synonyms: deliberation, deliberateness, unhurriedness**

Haney hoped that nobody noticed his sudden pallor, as he felt the blood drain from his cheeks. He muttered something about how terrible it was, and walked with deliberate slowness to the <t>elevator</t>. Once inside his apartment, he poured a drink with trembling hands and flopped limply in a chair.

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=elevator%1:06:00:: | definition=lifting device consisting of a platform or cage that is raised and lowered mechanically in a vertical shaft in order to move people from one floor to another in a building | synonyms=lift
2. sense_key=elevator%1:06:01:: | definition=the airfoil on the tailplane of an aircraft that makes it ascend or descend

3. Do not answer with a WordNet sense key.
4. Return only a JSON object exactly like {"sense_index": 3}.

raw_output:
The context describes Haney walking to an "elevator" inside his apartment building after witnessing a tragic fall. This clearly refers to a "lifting device consisting of a platform or cage that is raised and lowered mechanically in a vertical shaft in order to move people from one floor to another in a building," which matches the first candidate sense. The second sense about an aircraft airfoil is irrelevant to the context.

Therefore, the best indexed sense is the first one.

To determine the best sense for "chair" in the given context, we analyze the surrounding text:

- The sentence "flopped limply in a **chair**" describes Haney sitting down after a fall.
- The context involves a physical action (falling and sitting) rather than a professional or organizational role.
- The examples and synonyms for the candidate senses are considered:

  1. **Sense 1**: "a seat for one person, with a support for the back" - matches the physical act of sitting down.
  2. **Sense 2**: "the position of professor" - unrelated to the physical action described.
  3. **Sense 3**: "the officer who presides at the meetings of an organization" - unrelated to the physical action.
  4. **Sense 4**: "an instrument of execution by electrocution; resembles an ordinary seat for one person" - contextually inappropriate (no mention of execution or legal context).
  5. **Sense 5**: "a particular seat in an orchestra" - irrelevant to the described scenario.

Given the context of Haney sitting down after a fall, the most appropriate sense is the one describing a physical seat for a person.

Therefore, the best indexed sense is **Sense 1**.

The JSON response is:

To determine the best sense for "feel" in the given context:

**Context:**
"He had apparently been alone. Nobody witnessed the fall -- just the sickening impact when his body smashed on the pavement just outside the basement delivery entrance. Haney hoped that nobody noticed his sudden pallor, as he felt the blood drain from his cheeks. He muttered something about how terrible it was, and walked with deliberate slowness to the elevator. Once inside his apartment, he poured a drink with trembling hands and flopped limply in a chair. After a while he began to <t>feel</t> better about it, especially when no one bothered to ask any questions. But after all, why should they?"

**Analysis of the context:**
- The phrase "he felt better about it" indicates a change in Haney's emotional state or mental condition after some time.
- The surrounding sentences describe his physical reactions (blood draining, trembling hands) and emotional responses (hoping no one noticed, muttering about how terrible it was).
- The key phrase "felt better" is clearly about experiencing an emotional or mental improvement, not about perceiving a physical sensation or testing something.

**Matching with candidate senses:**
1. **sense_key=feel%2:37:00::** – "undergo an emotional sensation or be in a particular state of mind." This aligns perfectly with "felt better about it," indicating an emotional change.
2. **sense_key=feel%2:29:00::** – "be conscious of a physical, mental, or emotional state." While related, this sense is broader and less specific to the emotional improvement described.
3. **sense_key=feel%2:39:00::** – "perceive by a physical sensation." This does not fit the emotional context.
4. **sense_key=feel%2:31:00::** – "come to believe on the basis of emotion, intuitions, or indefinite grounds." This is about forming a belief, not about feeling better.
5. **Other senses** (feel%2:31:01, feel%2:39:01, etc.) are either about self-perception, passive experience, or physical examination, none of which match the emotional improvement context.

**Conclusion:**
The most appropriate sense is **sense_key=feel%2:37:00::**, which captures the idea of undergoing an emotional sensation or change in mental state.

**JSON response:**

- Other senses, such as making a request for something (sense_key=ask%2:32:01::) or requiring something as a condition (sense_key=ask%2:32:09::), do not fit the context as well.
- The example "ask a question" provided for sense_key=ask%2:32:02:: directly matches the usage in the sentence.

Target lemma: coincidence
Target surface form: coincidence
Context:
Haney hoped that nobody noticed his sudden pallor, as he felt the blood drain from his cheeks. He muttered something about how terrible it was, and walked with deliberate slowness to the elevator. Once inside his apartment, he poured a drink with trembling hands and flopped limply in a chair. After a while he began to feel better about it, especially when no one bothered to ask any questions. But after all, why should they? Still later, he finally convinced himself that it was an accident -- just a <t>coincidence</t>. The stranger really had nothing to do with it, of course

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=coincidence%1:11:00:: | definition=an event that might have been arranged although it was really accidental | synonyms=happenstance
2. sense_key=coincidence%1:07:02:: | definition=the quality of occupying the same position or area in space | examples=he waited for the coincidence of the target and the cross hairs
3. sense_key=coincidence%1:07:01:: | definition=the temporal property of two things happening at the same time | synonyms=concurrence, conjunction, co-occurrence | examples=the interval determining the coincidence gate is adjustable

Instructions:
1. Choose the single best indexed sense for the target word in context.
2. WordNet glosses are schematic; use the context, synonyms, and examples together.
3. Do not answer with a WordNet sense key.
4. Return only a JSON object exactly like {"sense_index": 3}.

raw_output:
The context describes Haney convincing himself that an event was "just a coincidence," implying that the event occurred by chance and was not planned or related to the stranger. This aligns with the definition of **coincidence** as an accidental occurrence that might have been arranged but was really by chance. The other senses relate to spatial or temporal alignment, which do not fit the narrative of an accidental, chance event.

Therefore, the best sense is:

**sense_key=coincidence%1:11:00::** (an event that might have been arranged although it was really accidental).

The corresponding sense index in the provided list is **3**.

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=stranger%1:18:00:: | definition=anyone who does not belong in the environment in which they are found | synonyms=alien, unknown
2. sense_key=stranger%1:18:01:: | definition=an individual that one is not acquainted with

2. WordNet glosses are schematic; use the context, synonyms, and examples together.
3. Do not answer with a WordNet sense key.
4. Return only a JSON object exactly like {"sense_index": 3}.

raw_output:
The context describes a situation where a "stranger" is mentioned in relation to a landlord and an incident that occurred. The passage implies that the stranger is someone who is not directly involved or known to the main character (Haney). This aligns with the definition of a "stranger" as an individual with whom one is not acquainted, rather than someone who is alien or unknown in a broader environmental sense.

Therefore, the best indexed sense is:

**sense_key=stranger%1:18:01:: | definition=an individual that one is not acquainted with**

Thus, the JSON response is:

```json
{"sense_index": 2}

The other senses (infested with lice, vile/despicable) do not fit the context as well. Therefore, the best sense is the one meaning "very bad."

The sense index for "very bad" is 1.

Thus, the answer is:

The context refers to "the man" in a narrative about a landlord and an accident, suggesting a generic reference to a human being without any specific role or characteristics. The phrase "nobody kills a man just as a favor!!" further supports the idea of a generic human, not a soldier, servant, or any specific type of man. Therefore, the best sense is the generic use of "man" to refer to any human being.

To determine the best sense for "had" in the context "After all, the man had no family, so no one suffered, and everybody was better off for it," we analyze the sentence:

- The phrase "had no family" is used to indicate possession or ownership of a family, i.e., the man did **not** possess a family.
- This aligns with the definition of "have" as **to possess or own** something.
- Among the candidate senses, sense_key=have%2:40:00:: ("have or possess, either in a concrete or an abstract sense") directly matches this usage, as it involves possession or ownership.

Other senses, such as those related to experiencing, causing, or having relationships, do not fit the context of indicating the absence of a family.

Therefore, the best indexed sense is:

```json
{"sense_index": 1}

To determine the best sense for "family" in the given context, we analyze the sentence:

"After all, the man had no <t>family</t>, so no one suffered, and everybody was better off for it."

The key phrase is "the man had no family." This suggests that the absence of a family refers to a social unit or group related to the man, specifically his immediate relatives (parents, children, spouse, etc.). The context implies that the lack of this social unit means no one else is affected by the situation, which aligns with the idea of a primary social group consisting of parents and children.

Let's evaluate the candidate senses:

1. **Household, house, home, menage** - Refers to a group living together, but does not specifically imply relatives.
2. **Primary social group; parents and children** - Directly matches the idea of a family as a group of relatives, fitting the context of "no one suffered" because there are no relatives to be affected.
3. **Collection of things sharing a common attribute** - Irrelevant to the context of relatives.
4. **People descended from a common ancestor** - Broadly defines family but does not emphasize the immediate social unit aspect.
5. **Person having kinship with another** - Too narrow and does not capture the group aspect.
6. **Taxonomic group in biology** - Clearly unrelated.
7. **Loose affiliation of gangsters** - Unrelated.
8. **Association of people sharing common beliefs** - Unrelated.

The most fitting sense is the one that describes a **primary social group consisting of parents and children**, as it directly addresses the absence of a family unit in the context of the man's situation.

Therefore, the best indexed sense is:

```json
{"sense_index": 2}
```

raw_output:
To determine the best sense for "suffered" in the given context, we analyze the sentence:

"After all, the man had no family, so no one <t>suffered</t>, and everybody was better off for it."

The key points are:
- The context implies that no one experienced any negative consequences or hardship.
- The phrase "no one suffered" suggests a lack of experiencing pain, hardship, or disadvantage.

Now, let's evaluate the candidate senses:

1. **Undergo or be subjected to** (sense 1): This is too broad and does not specifically address the lack of negative experience.
2. **Undergo (as of injuries and illnesses)** (sense 2): This focuses on physical injuries or illnesses, which is not the primary implication here.
3. **Experience (emotional) pain** (sense 3): This could fit, but the context emphasizes a complete absence of any negative experience, not just emotional pain.
4. **Put up with something or somebody unpleasant** (sense 4): This suggests enduring an unpleasant situation, which contradicts "no one suffered."
5. **Get worse** (sense 5): This implies a deterioration, which is not the focus of the sentence.
6. **Feel pain or be in pain** (sense 6): Similar to sense 2, it focuses on physical pain, which is not the main point.
7. **Feel physical pain** (sense 7): Again, too specific to physical pain.
8. **Feel unwell or uncomfortable** (sense 8): This is close, but the context is broader, indicating a total lack of any negative experience.
9. **Be given to** (sense 9): This suggests a tendency, which does not align with "no one suffered."
10. **Undergo or suffer** (sense 10): Too broad, similar to sense 1.
11. **Be set at a disadvantage** (sense 11): This implies a disadvantage, which is the opposite of "no one suffered."

The most fitting sense is **experience (emotional) pain** (sense 3), as it captures the idea that no one experienced any form of pain or hardship, aligning with the context of "no one suffered."

Therefore, the best indexed sense is:

```json
{"sense_index": 3}
```

To determine the best sense for "said" in the given context, we analyze the sentence:

*"Really, he <t>said</t> to himself, nobody kills a man just as a favor!!"*

The phrase "he said to himself" indicates that the speaker is expressing a thought or opinion to themselves. This aligns with the definition of "say" as **expressing a supposition or opinion**. The context suggests that the character is reflecting on a belief ("nobody kills a man just as a favor") rather than reporting a fact, giving instructions, or reciting a fixed text.

**Evaluation of candidate senses:**

1. **express in words** – Too broad; does not capture the reflective nature.
2. **report or maintain** – Implies asserting a claim, but the context is more introspective.
3. **express a supposition** – Fits the introspective reflection and opinion.
4. **have or contain a certain wording or form** – Irrelevant to the context.
5. **give instructions to or direct somebody** – Not applicable; no authority or command.
6. **speak, pronounce, or utter in a certain way** – Focuses on articulation, not the reflective meaning.
7. **communicate or express nonverbally** – Contradicts the explicit use of "said."
8. **communicate nonverbally** – Irrelevant.
9. **state as one's opinion or judgement** – Similar to sense 3, but sense 3 is more precise for the reflective "supposition."
10. **recite or repeat a fixed text** – Not applicable.
11. **indicate** – Too vague for the introspective context.

The most fitting sense is **express a supposition**, which corresponds to **sense_key=say%2:32:03::**.

**Conclusion:**

The best indexed sense for "said" in this context is sense 3.

Target lemma: kill
Target surface form: kills
Context:
But after all, why should they? Still later, he finally convinced himself that it was an accident -- just a coincidence. The stranger really had nothing to do with it, of course Haney went to bed, happy that at least he was rid of that lousy landlord. After all, the man had no family, so no one suffered, and everybody was better off for it. Really, he said to himself, nobody <t>kills</t> a man just as a favor!! So you thought I didn't mean what I said.

raw_output:
To determine the best sense for "kills" in the given context, we analyze the surrounding text:

- The sentence "nobody <t>kills</t> a man just as a favor!!" suggests a discussion about the reasons or motives behind causing someone's death.
- The context implies a moral or ethical judgment about the act of killing someone, specifically questioning whether someone would kill another person as a favor.
- The surrounding sentences discuss the stranger's involvement and the speaker's rationalization that the death was an accident, emphasizing the act of killing itself rather than any other metaphorical or literal meaning.

Given this, the most appropriate sense is the one that directly relates to causing someone's death, particularly in a deliberate or intentional manner, as the sentence questions the motive behind such an act.

**Analysis of candidate senses:**

1. **sense_key=kill%2:35:00::** - "cause to die; put to death, usually intentionally or knowingly." This aligns perfectly with the context, as the sentence questions whether someone would intentionally kill another as a favor.
2. **sense_key=kill%2:41:01::** - "thwart the passage of" (e.g., kill a motion). This is metaphorical and unrelated to the literal discussion of killing a person.
3. **sense_key=kill%2:30:08::** - "end or extinguish by forceful means" (e.g., stamp out poverty). This is a metaphorical sense and does not fit the literal discussion of killing a person.
4. **sense_key=kill%2:42:00::** - "be fatal" (e.g., cigarettes kill). This sense is about causing death indirectly, not about the intentional act of killing a person.
5. **sense_key=kill%2:39:00::** - "be the source of great pain for." This sense is about causing pain, not death.
6. **sense_key=kill%2:37:00::** - "overwhelm with hilarity, pleasure, or admiration." This sense is about overwhelming emotions, not relevant here.
7. **sense_key=kill%2:35:06::** - "hit with so much force as to make a return impossible, in racket games." This is a sports metaphor and unrelated.
8. **sense_key=kill%2:35:05::** - "hit with great force." This is also a sports metaphor and unrelated.
9. **sense_key=kill%2:35:02::** - "deprive of life." This is essentially the same as sense 1 but more general. However, sense 1 is more specific about intentionality, which fits the context better.
10. **sense_key=kill%2:35:01::** - "cause the death of, without intention." This contrasts with the context, which questions intentional killing.
11. **sense_key=kill%2:34:00::** - "drink down entirely." This is unrelated to the context.
12. **sense_key=kill%2:30:00::** - "mark for deletion, rub off, or erase." This is unrelated.
13. **sense_key=kill%2:30:04::** - "tire out completely." This is unrelated.
14. **sense_key=kill%2:30:03::** - "cause to cease operating." This is unrelated.
15. **sense_key=kill%2:30:02::** - "destroy a vitally essential quality of or in." This is unrelated.

**Conclusion:**

The best sense is **sense_key=kill%2:35:00::**, which defines "kill" as causing someone to die, typically intentionally or knowingly. This matches the context of questioning whether someone would kill another person as a favor.

Therefore, the JSON response is:

```json
