- Does Heather mean 'chilling' as in the verb (they are chilling, maxing, relaxing) or as in the adjective (some implied thing, the vibes perhaps, are 'chilling'; they cause dread)? Or is it ambiguous?
- How does our reading of the post change if we adopt one interpretation or the other?
- How do these two seemingly opposed senses of 'to chill' and 'chilling' relate to one another? Can you come up with a hypothesis about why they originate from the same word?
Teacher, aren't those both derived from the original meaning, which is "to become cold?" What if Heather is simply reducing their temperature? Perhaps you chose to refrain from mentioning this as a possibility because it implies the answer to Question Three, but regardless, it renders the initial question conspicuously incomplete.
