Target lemma: take
Target surface form: takes
Context:
Got back to Bolinas, and everything had fallen: broken poster frames with glass on the floor, file cabinets open or dumped onto the floor. 11:59 p.m. JKD: I was in my favorite watering hole, waiting for the game to start. I felt the temblor begin and glanced at the table next to mine, smiled that guilty smile and we both mouthed the words, "Earth-quake! "together.

raw_output:
To determine the best indexed sense for the target word "pass" in the given context, let's analyze the sentence and the provided candidate senses.

The sentence is: "That's usually how long it takes for the temblors to <t>pass</t>."

The context is about an earthquake (referred to as "temblor") and the speaker's experience during it. The word "pass" here relates to the duration or the action of the earthquake tremors.

Let's examine the relevant candidate senses:

1. sense_key=pass%2:38:00:: | definition=go across or through
2. sense_key=pass%2:38:05:: | definition=move past
3. sense_key=pass%2:38:03:: | definition=pass by | synonyms=elapse, lapse, slip by, glide by, slip away, go by

The most relevant definitions in this context are related to the passage of time or the movement of the earthquake tremors.

The sentence implies that the speaker is talking about the time it takes for the earthquake tremors to cease or move past.

Sense 2:38:03 ("pass by") with synonyms like "elapse, lapse, slip by, glide by, slip away, go by" fits well because it relates to the passage of time, and the example "three years elapsed" illustrates this sense of time passing.

Therefore, the best indexed sense for "pass" in this context is related to the passage of time or the action of the tremors moving past.

The correct JSON response is: {"sense_index": 5}

No, reevaluating:
The correct JSON response is: {"sense_index": 4} is not correct because the indexing is not directly provided.

Let's directly map the given definition to the index:
- The 4th sense is "pass%2:38:03::" which matches the required meaning.

Thus, the best indexed sense is 4.

To determine the best indexed sense for the target word "time" in the given context, let's analyze the context and the provided candidate senses.

The context is: "That's usually how long it takes for the temblors to pass. This time, it just got stronger and then the building started shaking violently up and down as though it were a child's toy block that was being tossed."

The word "time" here refers to a specific instance or occasion when an event (the temblor) occurred. The phrase "This time" is used to contrast the current instance with previous instances.

Let's examine the candidate senses:

1. an instance or single occasion for some event - This sense fits the context as "this time" refers to a specific occasion when the temblor occurred.
2. a period of time considered as a resource under your control and sufficient to accomplish something - This doesn't fit as the context doesn't discuss time as a resource.
3. an indefinite period (usually marked by specific attributes or activities) - While "time" can sometimes refer to a period, the context suggests a specific instance rather than a period.
4. a suitable moment - The context doesn't indicate that the "time" is suitable or not for something.
5. the continuum of experience in which events pass from the future through the present to the past - This is a more abstract concept of time and doesn't fit the specific instance indicated by "this time".
6. a person's experience on a particular occasion - While related, the focus is on the event (temblor) rather than the person's experience.
7. a reading of a point in time as given by a clock - The context doesn't involve clock time.
8. the fourth coordinate that is required (along with three spatial dimensions) to specify a physical event - This is a more technical and abstract concept not directly relevant to the context.
9. rhythm as given by division into parts of equal duration - Not relevant to the context.
10. the period of time a prisoner is imprisoned - Not relevant to the context.

The phrase "This time" is used to denote a specific occasion, which aligns with sense 1: "an instance or single occasion for some event." The examples given for this sense ("this time he succeeded; he called four times") illustrate the usage of "time" to denote a specific instance or occasion.

Therefore, the best indexed sense for "time" in the given context is sense 1.

raw_output:
To determine the best indexed sense for the target word "building" in the given context, let's analyze the context and the provided candidate senses.

The context describes a personal experience during an earthquake where the narrator is in a "watering hole" (likely a bar or pub) and feels the earthquake. The building starts shaking violently. The focus here is on the structure the narrator is in, which is being affected by the earthquake.

Let's examine the candidate senses:

1. **Sense 1**: "a structure that has a roof and walls and stands more or less permanently in one place." The synonyms include "edifice," and examples are "there was a three-story building on the corner; it was an imposing edifice." This sense refers to a physical structure, which fits the context as the narrator describes being inside a structure that shakes during an earthquake.

2. **Sense 2**: "the act of constructing something." The synonyms include "construction," and examples are "during the construction we had to take a detour; his hobby was the building of boats." This sense is about the process of constructing, not a physical structure.

3. **Sense 3**: "the commercial activity involved in repairing old structures or constructing new ones." The synonyms include "construction," and examples are "their main business is home construction; workers in the building trades." This sense is related to the industry or activity of building or repairing structures.

4. **Sense 4**: "the occupants of a building." An example is "the entire building complained about the noise." This sense refers to the people inside a building, not the structure itself.

Given the context, the word "building" refers to the physical structure the narrator is in, which is shaking during the earthquake. This matches **Sense 1**, as it describes a physical edifice.

Therefore, the best indexed sense for "building" in this context is **1**.

To determine the best indexed sense for the target word "started" in the given context, let's analyze the sentence and the provided candidate senses.

The sentence is: "That's usually how long it takes for the temblors to pass. This time, it just got stronger and then the building started shaking violently up and down as though it were a child's toy block that was being tossed."

The word "started" is used here to describe the beginning of an action (the building shaking violently). To choose the correct sense, we need to consider the context and the definitions provided.

1. The action described is the building shaking, which is an event that begins or commences.
2. The context implies that "started" is used to indicate the initiation of the shaking.

Let's examine the relevant candidate senses:
- Sense 1: "take the first step or steps in carrying out an action" - This could potentially fit, as it involves beginning an action.
- Sense 4: "have a beginning, in a temporal, spatial, or evaluative sense" - This sense is also plausible because it involves something beginning.
- Sense 9: "begin or set in motion" - This is a strong candidate because it directly relates to initiating an action or event.

Upon closer inspection, "started shaking" is most closely related to Sense 9: "begin or set in motion" because it describes the initiation of the action of shaking. The synonyms for this sense include "go" and "get going," and an example is "I start at eight in the morning; Ready, set, go!" which illustrates the concept of beginning or initiating an action or event.

Therefore, the best indexed sense for "started" in the given context is Sense 9.

To determine the best indexed sense for the target word "shaking" in the given context, let's analyze the context and the provided candidate senses.

The context describes a situation where the narrator is in a building during an earthquake, and the building starts "shaking violently up and down as though it were a child's toy block that was being tossed." The key elements here are the intense movement caused by the earthquake and the description of the building's motion.

Let's examine the candidate senses:

1. **move or cause to move back and forth** - While this sense involves movement, it doesn't fully capture the intensity or the specific nature of the motion described.
2. **move with or as if with a tremor** - This sense is more related to a gentle or slight shaking, often associated with human body parts or emotional states, which doesn't fit the violent motion described.
3. **shake or vibrate rapidly and intensively** - This sense matches the context well, as it describes a violent and intense shaking or vibration, similar to what is expected during a significant earthquake.
4. **move back and forth or sideways** - While this sense involves movement, the context specifies an up-and-down motion, not just any back-and-forth or sideways movement.
5. **undermine or cause to waver** - This sense is more figurative and related to abstract concepts like faith or hopes, not physical movement.
6. **stir the feelings, emotions, or peace of** - Again, this is a more figurative sense related to emotional or psychological impact, not the physical shaking described.
7. **get rid of** - This sense is unrelated to the context of physical movement or the effects of an earthquake.
8. **bring to a specified condition by or as if by shaking** - While related to shaking, this sense is more about the result of shaking rather than the act itself.
9. **shake (a body part) to communicate a greeting, feeling, or cognitive state** - This sense is specific to using a body part to convey a message or emotion, not relevant to the context.

Given the context and the descriptions of the candidate senses, the most appropriate sense is the one that describes an intense and violent shaking or vibration, which is **sense_index: 3**.

To determine the best indexed sense for the target word "child" in the given context, let's analyze the context and the provided candidate senses.

The context is: "the building started shaking violently up and down as though it were a child's toy block that was being tossed."

Here, "child" is used to describe a toy block, indicating that the toy belongs to or is associated with a child. The usage is figurative, comparing the building to a toy that a child might play with.

Let's examine the candidate senses:

1. **sense_key=child%1:18:00::** - This sense refers to "a young person of either sex." The synonyms include "kid," "youngster," "minor," "shaver," "nipper," "small fry." The example given is "she writes books for children; they're just kids." This sense fits the literal meaning of "child" as a young human.

2. **sense_key=child%1:18:01::** - This sense is defined as "a human offspring (son or daughter) of any age." The synonym given is "kid," and examples include "they had three children; they were able to send their kids to college." This sense focuses on the familial relationship.

3. **sense_key=child%1:18:06::** - This defines "an immature childish person." The synonym is "baby," and examples are "he remained a child in practical matters as long as he lived; stop being a baby!" This sense is more about the behavior or maturity level rather than the age.

4. **sense_key=child%1:18:07::** - This sense refers to "a member of a clan or tribe," with the example "the children of Israel." This is a more specific, group-related definition.

Given the context, "child" is used to describe a toy block, implying that the toy is something a young person (not necessarily an offspring or a member of a specific group) would play with. The most relevant sense here is the first one, which refers to a young person of either sex. The comparison is to a toy that such a person would play with, making the usage literal in terms of age and figurative in the comparison.

Therefore, the best indexed sense for "child" in this context is the first one.

To determine the best indexed sense for the word "toy" in the given context, let's analyze the sentence and the provided candidate senses.

The sentence is: "...the building started shaking violently up and down as though it were a child's toy block that was being tossed."

Here, "toy" is used to describe a "block." The context suggests that the block is being referred to in a manner that indicates it is something that can be easily manipulated or tossed around, much like an object designed for a child's play.

Let's examine the candidate senses:

1. An artifact designed to be played with.
2. A nonfunctional replica of something else.
3. A device regarded as providing amusement.
4. A copy that reproduces a person or thing in greatly reduced size.
5. Any of several breeds of very small dogs kept purely as pets.

The phrase "child's toy block" directly implies that the block is an object designed for a child to play with. This aligns well with sense 1, "an artifact designed to be played with," as blocks are typically toys for children.

While sense 4, "a copy that reproduces a person or thing in greatly reduced size," could potentially apply because toy blocks are often smaller representations of real blocks or structures, the primary implication here is that the block is a plaything.

Therefore, the most appropriate sense for "toy" in this context is sense 1.

raw_output:
To determine the best indexed sense for the target word "tossed" in the given context, let's analyze the sentence and the provided candidate senses.

The sentence is: "...the building started shaking violently up and down as though it were a child's toy block that was being <t>tossed</t>."

Here, the context suggests that the building is being moved or thrown about violently, much like a child's toy.

Let's examine the candidate senses:

1. The first sense involves throwing or tossing with a light motion. The context, however, indicates a violent motion, not a light one.
2. The second sense is related to flipping a coin or similar objects to see which side comes up. This doesn't fit the context of a building being shaken.
3. The third sense involves throwing carelessly. While this could potentially fit in terms of lack of control, it doesn't fully capture the violent or vigorous motion described.
4. The fourth sense involves moving or stirring about violently. The synonyms provided (convulse, thresh, thresh about, thrash, thrash about, slash) suggest a violent or agitated motion, which aligns with the context of the building shaking violently.
5. The fifth sense is about throwing or casting away, which doesn't directly relate to the motion described in the context.
6. The sixth sense involves agitating, as in tossing a salad. While this implies some form of motion, it doesn't quite fit the context of a building being shaken.

Given the context and the descriptions of the candidate senses, the most appropriate sense is the fourth one, which involves moving or stirring about violently. This matches the description of the building being shaken violently "up and down as though it were a child's toy block that was being tossed."

Therefore, the best indexed sense for "tossed" in this context is the one corresponding to the fourth candidate sense.

To determine the best indexed sense for the target word "library" in the given context, let's analyze the provided information step by step.

1. **Context Analysis**: The context describes being in the Berkeley Main library during an earthquake. It mentions "huge windows" and the concern about them buckling and showering glass, indicating the library is a physical location where people are present.

2. **Candidate Senses Analysis**:
   - **1. sense_key=library%1:06:01::**: Refers to a room where books are kept. While a library can be a room, the context suggests a larger structure or building.
   - **2. sense_key=library%1:14:00::**: Refers to a collection of literary documents or records. This sense is plausible as it relates to the content typically found in a library, but it doesn't directly imply a physical location.
   - **3. sense_key=library%1:06:00::**: Describes a depository built to contain books and other materials. This is a plausible sense as it refers to a structure or building designed for housing books and materials.
   - **4. sense_key=library%1:14:01::**: Relates to computing, referring to a collection of standard programs and subroutines. The context does not suggest a computing or digital context.
   - **5. sense_key=library%1:06:02::**: Refers to a building that houses a collection of books and other materials. This sense directly corresponds with the context provided, as it mentions being in a library with "huge windows" that could buckle.

3. **Choosing the Best Indexed Sense**:
   - The context clearly indicates that the library is a physical location with "huge windows," suggesting it is a building or a significant structure.
   - Senses 3 and 5 both relate to physical locations or structures. Sense 5 directly mentions a "building," which aligns with the context of being in a location with physical attributes like huge windows.
   - Sense 3 is also plausible as it refers to a "depository built to contain books and other materials," which could imply a building or a significant structure.

4. **Decision**:
   - Between senses 3 and 5, which are the most relevant, **sense 5** directly refers to a "building that houses a collection of books and other materials." The context explicitly mentions being inside the library and worrying about the windows, strongly suggesting that the library is being referred to as a physical building.
   - Therefore, the most appropriate sense is **5**.

However, the task requires returning a JSON object with the sense index. The sense indices provided in the candidate senses are:
1. library%1:06:01::
2. library%1:14:00::
3. library%1:06:00::
4. library%1:14:01::
5. library%1:06:02::

The correct sense is the fifth one listed, so the response should be based on its index.

To determine the best indexed sense for the target word "hit" in the given context, let's analyze the sentence and the provided candidate senses.

The context is: "I was in the Berkeley Main library when it hit." This is followed by "Endless seconds wondering if those huge windows would buckle and shower us with glass." The subject "it" refers to the earthquake or temblor mentioned in the preceding sentences.

Let's examine the relevant candidate senses:

1. cause to move by striking
2. hit against; come into sudden contact with
3. deal a blow to, either with the hand or with an instrument
4. reach a destination, either real or abstract
5. affect or afflict suddenly, usually adversely
6. hit with a missile from a weapon
7. encounter by chance
8. gain points in a game
9. cause to experience suddenly
10. make a strategic, offensive, assault against an enemy, opponent, or a target
11. kill intentionally and with premeditation
12. drive something violently into a location
13. reach a point in time, or a certain state or level
14. produce by manipulating keys or strings of musical instruments, also metaphorically
15. consume to excess
16. hit the intended target or goal
17. pay unsolicited and usually unwanted sexual attention to

The sentence implies that the earthquake or temblor started affecting the location where the speaker was. The phrase "when it hit" suggests a sudden impact or effect caused by the earthquake.

Senses like "deal a blow to" (3) or "hit with a missile from a weapon" (6) don't fit well because they imply a more direct and physical action of hitting, often with a specific object or weapon, which isn't the case here.

Senses like "reach a destination" (4) or "reach a point in time, or a certain state or level" (13) could potentially fit, but they don't directly convey the sudden impact or effect of the earthquake.

The most relevant sense here is "affect or afflict suddenly, usually adversely" (5), as it matches the context of the earthquake suddenly affecting the people in the library. The synonym "strike" is also used in a similar context (e.g., "We were hit by really bad weather").

Therefore, the best indexed sense for "hit" in this context is sense_index 5.

raw_output:
To determine the best indexed sense for the word "Endless" in the given context, let's analyze the sentence and the provided candidate senses.

The sentence is: "Endless seconds wondering if those huge windows would buckle and shower us with glass."

Here, "Endless" is used to describe the perceived duration of seconds during a stressful event. The context suggests that the time felt extremely long, to the point of seeming without end.

Let's examine the candidate senses:

1. **Tiresomely long; seemingly without end** - This sense fits the context well because the seconds felt long and tiresome due to the anxiety of the situation. The synonyms "eternal" and "interminable" also align with the feeling of time being drawn out.

2. **Infinitely great in number** - This sense doesn't directly apply because "seconds" is a quantifiable measure of time, not something that is being described in terms of an infinite quantity.

3. **Having no known beginning and presumably no end** - While this sense describes something as being endless in a more philosophical or timeless sense, it doesn't directly fit the context of describing a short, stressful period.

4. **Having the ends united so as to form a continuous whole** - This sense is more about something being continuous or forming a loop, which doesn't apply to the context of describing seconds.

Given the context and the examples, the most suitable sense is the first one: "tiresomely long; seemingly without end." This is because the sentence is describing the subjective experience of time during a stressful event, where the seconds felt like they were dragging on interminably.

Therefore, the best indexed sense is 1.

To determine the best indexed sense for the target word "wondering" in the given context, let's analyze the context and the provided candidate senses.

The context describes a person in the Berkeley Main library during an earthquake, experiencing fear and uncertainty about the structural integrity of the building, specifically "wondering if those huge windows would buckle and shower us with glass." The focus here is on the state of uncertainty or questioning about a specific outcome or situation.

Let's examine the candidate senses:

1. The first sense is defined as "have a wish or desire to know something." The example given is "He wondered who had built this beautiful church." This sense aligns with a curiosity or inquiry about something.

2. The second sense is "place in doubt or express doubtful speculation." The examples provided are "I wonder whether this was the right thing to do; she wondered whether it would snow tonight." This sense involves questioning or being uncertain about something, often with a speculative element.

3. The third sense is "be amazed at," with the example "We marvelled at the child's linguistic abilities." This involves feeling a sense of wonder or awe at something.

In the given context, the person is not expressing awe or marveling at something (ruling out sense 3). Instead, they are in a state of uncertainty or questioning whether the windows would buckle. This aligns closely with the second sense, which involves expressing doubtful speculation or being uncertain about something ("wondering if those huge windows would buckle"). The context suggests a state of questioning or uncertainty about a future event or outcome, which matches the definition and examples of the second sense.

Therefore, the best indexed sense for "wondering" in this context is the second sense.

To determine the best indexed sense for the target word "windows" in the given context, let's analyze the context and the provided candidate senses.

The context is about being in the Berkeley Main library during an earthquake and worrying about huge "windows" buckling and showering glass. The key elements here are the location (a library), the event (an earthquake), and the concern (huge windows buckling).

1. The first sense refers to a framework that contains a glass windowpane. This is a common understanding of "window" and fits the context of a library having large windows that could potentially buckle during an earthquake.

2. The second sense is related to vehicles, which doesn't fit the context of a library.

3. The third sense refers to a transparent panel in an envelope, not relevant to the context.

4. The fourth sense is about an opening that resembles a window, which is too broad and not directly related to the concern of glass shattering.

5. The fifth sense is about a time period, not relevant to the physical structure or the context.

6. The sixth sense refers to a pane of glass in a window, which is closely related to the first sense and could fit the context, as the concern is about the glass shattering.

7. The seventh sense is about a serving window, not relevant to the context of a library's architectural features.

8. The eighth sense is related to computer science, which is not relevant to the context.

Given the context, both the first and sixth senses seem plausible because they relate to the physical structure of a window. However, the concern is about "huge windows" buckling and "shower[ing] us with glass," which directly relates to the glass part of the window. The term "windows" here refers to the entire structure (framework plus glass), but the immediate concern is the glass.

The first sense (a framework of wood or metal that contains a glass windowpane) is the most encompassing, as it refers to the whole window structure, not just the glass. The worry is about the windows (frameworks) buckling, which implies a concern about the structural integrity of the windows and, by extension, the glass they contain.

Therefore, the best indexed sense is the first one.

raw_output:
To determine the best indexed sense for the target word "buckle" in the given context, let's analyze the provided information step by step.

1. **Context Analysis**: The sentence describes a scenario during an earthquake where the narrator is in the Berkeley Main library and is concerned that the huge windows would "buckle and shower us with glass." This implies that the windows are under stress due to the earthquake and might break or collapse.

2. **Candidate Senses Analysis**:
   - **Sense 1**: "fasten with a buckle or buckles" - This sense doesn't fit the context because the windows are not being fastened; rather, they are at risk of breaking or collapsing.
   - **Sense 2**: "fold or collapse" - This sense is plausible because it implies that the windows might fail structurally under the stress of the earthquake, potentially leading to a collapse or significant deformation.
   - **Sense 3**: "bend out of shape, as under pressure or from heat" - While this sense implies deformation, it is more related to gradual changes due to pressure or heat, as indicated by the example "The highway buckled during the heat wave." However, the context here involves a sudden and violent shaking, not a gradual deformation.

3. **Choosing the Best Sense**:
   - The context suggests a sudden and significant structural failure or deformation ("shower us with glass"), which aligns more closely with **Sense 2** ("fold or collapse") because it implies a sudden failure under stress. The example "His knees buckled" illustrates a sudden collapse or failure, which is analogous to the windows failing under the stress of the earthquake.

4. **Conclusion**: The best indexed sense for "buckle" in the given context is **2**, as it most accurately describes the potential sudden failure or collapse of the windows.

Therefore, the response in the required JSON format is: {"sense_index": 2}

To determine the best indexed sense for the target word "shower" in the given context, let's analyze the sentence and the provided candidate senses.

The sentence is: "Endless seconds wondering if those huge windows would buckle and shower us with glass."

Here, "shower" is used in the context of windows buckling and potentially releasing a large amount of glass. The verb "shower" in this context implies causing something (in this case, glass) to fall or be dispersed abundantly upon someone or something (us).

Let's examine the candidate senses:

1. The first sense is defined as "expend profusely; also used with abstract nouns" with the example "He was showered with praise." This sense implies being given or receiving something in abundance, often in the form of abstract things like praise. While it involves the idea of abundance, the context here involves a physical action (windows buckling and glass falling), not just an abstract concept.

2. The second sense is "spray or sprinkle with" as in "The guests showered rice on the couple." This involves a physical action of dispersing something (rice, in the example) onto something or someone else. The action is somewhat similar to what's described in the context, as it involves dispersing or spreading something.

3. The third sense is "take a shower; wash one's body in the shower," which clearly doesn't fit the context as it refers to a personal hygiene activity.

4. The fourth sense is "rain abundantly" with the example "Meteors showered down over half of Australia." This implies something falling from the sky in abundance. While it involves abundance, the context doesn't directly imply something coming from the sky.

5. The fifth sense is "provide abundantly with" as in "He showered her with presents." This involves giving someone a lot of something (presents, in this case), which is similar to the first sense in implying abundance but is more about the act of giving.

Given the context, the most fitting sense is the one that involves causing something to be dispersed or spread abundantly. The sentence implies that if the windows buckle, they would cause glass to fall or be dispersed abundantly on "us." The closest match among the given senses is the second one, "spray or sprinkle with," as it involves a similar action of dispersing something (though the direction is slightly different - the examples given for this sense involve an active subject dispersing something, whereas in the context, it's more about the consequence of an action).

Therefore, the best indexed sense for "shower" in this context is the second sense.

To determine the best indexed sense for the target word "glass" in the given context, let's analyze the sentence and the provided candidate senses.

The context is: "Endless seconds wondering if those huge windows would buckle and shower us with glass."

Here, the word "glass" is used in relation to "huge windows." The concern is that if these windows buckle, they would "shower us with glass." This implies that "glass" refers to the material that the windows are made of, which is breaking into pieces.

Let's examine the candidate senses:

1. A brittle transparent solid with irregular atomic structure - This definition matches the material that windows are made of.
2. A container for holding liquids while drinking - This doesn't fit the context; the sentence isn't talking about drinking glasses.
3. The quantity a glass will hold - This also doesn't fit; the context isn't discussing a quantity of something.
4. A small refracting telescope - Not relevant to the context of windows and breaking.
5. An amphetamine derivative - Unrelated to the context.
6. A mirror - Not relevant; the text discusses windows, not mirrors.
7. Glassware collectively - While this involves "glass," it typically refers to objects made of glass, like drinking glasses or decorative items, not the material of windows.

Given the context that "glass" is related to "huge windows" and the concern is about being "shower[ed] with glass" when they buckle, the most appropriate sense is the first one: "a brittle transparent solid with irregular atomic structure." This is the material that windows are made of.

Therefore, the best indexed sense for "glass" in this context is the first one.
