    The linearize_row function takes a row of the dataframe and returns a string
    representation of that row. The string representation is just each column name
    and its value concatenated with &quot;is&quot; and &quot;.&quot; between each pair. For example, if 
    the input was {&quot;a&quot;: 1, &quot;b&quot;: 2}, the output would be:
