Read the sentence.

After eating the gigantic dinner, the man eased himself out of his chair and made his way to the sofa in a drowsy and languid manner where he lay down before the fire for a nap.

The definition of languid is “slow and relaxed.”

Which context clue is most helpful in determining this definition?


"the gigantic dinner"

"out of his chair"

"in a drowsy"

"before the fire"
