**My Analysis of "Think" in Context**

Okay, so the target word is "think", the surface form is "think", and the context is "I think you aren't taking me seriously, Phil. I meant it." My immediate task is to determine the correct sense of "think" in this specific instance. Let's see... the meaning here is clearly about holding an opinion or belief – "I believe/suppose you aren't taking me seriously."

Looking at the candidate senses, I have a few contenders. *think%2:31:01::* is "judge or regard; look upon; judge" (e.g., "I think he is very smart"). *think%2:31:03::* is "expect, believe, or suppose" (e.g., "I imagine she earned a lot of money"). *think%2:31:00::* is "use or exercise the mind," and *think%2:31:02::* is "recall knowledge," both of which are not relevant here.

The real challenge is between the first two senses. Let's dissect the differences. Sense 1 is about making a judgment, or regarding something with a specific view. Sense 2 is about an expectation, a supposition, or a belief. The synonyms for Sense 2, like "opine, suppose, imagine, reckon, guess," are crucial. "I think you aren't taking me seriously" seems to express a *supposition* or *belief* about the situation. I can easily replace it with "I reckon/suppose you aren't taking me seriously."

Hold on, I must compare this to "I think he is very smart" (Sense 1) which is also an opinion, so this could also be Sense 1. Let's examine the syntax of the cases. Sense 1 often takes a small clause (e.g., "think him smart") or a that-clause which expresses a *judgment* about the subject's quality. Sense 2, on the other hand, also takes a that-clause, but it describes a *state of affairs* ("I imagine she earned..."). "I think you aren't taking me seriously" fits the "guess/reckon/suppose" meaning of Sense 2 perfectly.

Let's test this further. If it were Sense 1, would it fit? "I consider you aren't taking me seriously" is not right. But "I reckon/guess/suppose you aren't taking me seriously" *does*. Sense 2, expressing a tentative belief or assumption, seems to be a much better fit.

Okay, back to Sense 1: judge or regard. "I think him a fool" – and I do agree with this. And in comparison, looking at Sense 2: expect, believe, or suppose. "I imagine she earned a lot of money..." In the typical WSD for "I think that P", where P is a proposition, it's often Sense 2, if it means "guess, suppose, believe."

I should review: "I think you aren't taking me seriously." Let's check the synonyms for Sense 2 again: opine, suppose, imagine, reckon, guess. This is definitely "I guess you aren't taking me seriously" or "I reckon...". Okay, I think this is Sense 2.

Now, let's just make sure. Let me double check Sense 1: judge or regard (believe, consider, conceive). "I consider her to be very smart", or, "I think he is very smart." It does seem I could fit that into the context of Sense 1... however, let's look at the difference!

Sense 2 is "expect, believe, or suppose" (synonyms: opine, suppose, imagine, reckon, guess). "I think you aren't taking me seriously" = I guess/suppose you aren't taking me seriously. I'm choosing Sense 2.

**Analyzing "Taking Me Seriously"**

Okay, so Phil isn't taking me seriously. I need to understand what that phrase *actually* means in this context. "Taking me seriously." Let's break down the potential senses.

Alright, the options are: "carry out" (seems unlikely), or... Sense 6 is the best candidate. It's about "interpreting something in a certain way; conveying a particular meaning or impression." Synonyms include "read". Yeah, that resonates. It's like saying, "How should I *take* this message?" or "I *read* this address as a satire." That definitely aligns with what I'm getting at – Phil isn't giving my words, my perspective, the weight they deserve.

Let's quickly check the other senses, just to be sure. "Take on a certain form"? Nope. "Receive willingly"? No. "Experience or feel"? Not it. "Accept or undergo"? Doesn't fit. "Make use of or accept for some purpose"? No. "Be seized or affected"? Definitely not. "Take into consideration"? This is a thought but that's not it.

Okay, back to Sense 6. It’s pretty clear now. "Interpreting something in a certain way; conveying a particular meaning or impression." It's definitely the right one. I'm saying he isn't *interpreting* my words seriously.

Let's double-check the definition again to confirm. Yep, "interpret something in a certain way; convey a particular meaning or impression." "I think you aren't interpreting me seriously" - that's it. It’s the same meaning as "taking me seriously."

Is there any other choice? None seems better.

The sense key is `take%2:31:07::`. I should read it again. "How should I take this message?" "I read this address as a satire". Yes, interpreting. "Taking me seriously".

One more review of Sense 6. I know it's a bit redundant, but it's important to be thorough.
sense_key=take%2:31:07::
synonyms=read

Could it be 13, "take into consideration"? Not really, that's more about incorporating something into a decision. No, not that one.

How about 19, "accept or undergo"? No, not the right fit.

Or 20, "make use of or accept for some purpose"? Still no.

Sense 6 is definitely the winner. It's the only one that truly captures the meaning of "taking me seriously" in this context. We can proceed with this interpretation.

**Analyzing the Nuances of "Meant"**

Okay, so the target is "meant" in the context of "I think you aren't taking me seriously, Phil. I meant it." I need to understand what the speaker is emphasizing. It seems they're asserting the seriousness of their previous statement. "I meant it" – does that translate to "I intended to express or convey it" or "I had in mind as a purpose"?

Let's check the senses. Sense 1 is "mean or intend to express or convey" – that seems promising. Sense 4 is "have in mind as a purpose." Sense 6 is "intend to refer to," but that doesn't quite fit here.

Ah, "I meant it" really is about being in earnest. WordNet tends to map that to either of the first two senses. So, sense 1, "mean or intend to express or convey," is a strong contender. If I'm saying "I meant it," I'm saying my words accurately reflect my intention, that I was serious.

But wait, consider sense 4: "have in mind as a purpose" - "I mean no harm". Could it be that? Or is it sense 1: "You never understand what I mean!"?

The pronoun "it" in "I meant it" refers to the statement or offer. So, "I intended it" really is "I meant or intended to express it." It is about conveying something. And "have in mind as a purpose" is about intention.

Let's search for this exact phrase in WordNet. No direct matches, only "mean."

So, if "I meant it" means "I intended what I said," does it refer to *intending to express or convey* or *having in mind as a purpose*?

Ultimately, "I meant it" is most directly related to "intend to express or convey" – that I genuinely intended to convey what I said.

And let's go back and examine sense 1 more closely: "mean or intend to express or convey."

What about sense 4: "have in mind as a purpose"? "I mean no harm". If someone says "I meant it", does it mean "I intended it"?

Now, let's consider the synonyms. Sense 1's synonym is "intend," which links the meaning directly to communicating something.

"I mean it" really is the same as "I am serious," which implies a true and strong intention. It means I meant my words. I *meant* it.

Let's look at sense 1 again. It states, "mean or intend to express or convey" -- which is the best fit. Sense 4 states: "have in mind as a purpose". And this is a question of intent.

Okay, I think "I meant it" connects directly with "mean or intend to express or convey" because "it" refers to the previous utterance, which is about communication.

"I think you aren't taking me seriously, Phil. I meant it." Here, "it" is about the *words* and the intention behind them.

If I say "I mean it," it means "I am serious," and it means "I mean what I say," which is again about conveying something. Could "mean it" be an idiom that maps more directly? No.

Thinking about "I meant it". The "it" is either the offer or the statement itself. "I had it in mind as a purpose" versus "I intended to convey it." Sense 1 is about communication, sense 4 about cognition. If someone *means* something, they *intended* to express or convey it.

So, let's look at this specific example: "Guess I can't think of anyone, Pete. Thanks anyhow" "I think you aren't taking me seriously, Phil. I meant it. And everybody has some kind of grudge." The context is about someone, Pete, probably offering something (maybe to take care of someone Phil has a grudge against, like a hitman). Pete says "I meant it." = "I intended what I said," which is to *express* something.

Could it also be sense 4? "I had it in mind as a purpose." If Pete offered to kill someone, "I meant it" really *is* "I intended to do it," meaning that I intended my words to convey what I had in mind as a purpose.

I mean what I say, or I *meant* it - is most closely linked to sense 1.

So, it's about what was said: If you say "I meant it", the "it" is the said thing.

Let's review the options. Sense 1 is "mean or intend to express or convey." I

**Analyzing the Sense of "Has" in the Sentence**

Okay, the target word is "has," lemmatized as "have," in the phrase "everybody has some kind of grudge." My first thought is to understand the core meaning here: "everybody harbors or possesses a grudge." Now, let's dissect the potential senses of "have" to pinpoint the most accurate one.

I'm considering a few candidates. The first is the most general: to "have or possess" something, whether concrete or abstract. That seems promising. Then there's the "go through" sense, where "have" means to experience or receive, like "get an idea." And finally, a less likely sense, "be confronted with," as in "What do we have here?"

To "have a grudge" leans toward possession, albeit abstract. It's similar to "have an idea," but it's clearly a state or characteristic, not a direct experience in the same way as vertigo. Sense 1, "have or possess, either in a concrete or an abstract sense," seems most applicable. It's the most general and allows for the abstract nature of "grudge." Let's rule out sense 4, which is about ownership or possession of a physical thing, as "grudge" isn't a physical object.

Alright, checking if "grudge" fits in sense 1: "Have" means possess an abstract thing. Have a feeling, have a grudge. It's a clear fit! Sense 1 is definitively the best sense here.

**Analyzing the Senses of "Hit" in Context**

Okay, the target word is "hit," and the context is "I might have got hit by that truck if it wasn't for you." My initial instinct is that this is referring to the truck colliding with someone. Let's break down the candidate senses to confirm.

Sense 1, "cause to move by striking," is immediately out. We're not talking about hitting a ball.

Sense 2, "hit against; come into sudden contact with," is the strongest contender. "The car hit a tree" is the paradigmatic example here, and "I might have got hit by that truck" fits perfectly. The truck is suddenly contacting the speaker. Synonyms like "strike," "impinge on," "run into," and "collide with" all reinforce this interpretation. "The truck hit me" is essentially equivalent to "I got hit by the truck."

Sense 3, "deal a blow to," is a possibility, but less likely. While a truck *could* deliver a blow, the phrasing suggests an accident, not a deliberate action.

Sense 5, "affect or afflict suddenly," could fit in a broad sense, but it doesn't align with the imagery. "We were hit by really bad weather" is distinct from a truck collision.

So, let's go back and re-evaluate.
1. cause to move by striking - Nope
2. hit against; come into sudden contact with; run into, collide with - Definitely!
3. deal a blow to (hand/instrument) - Possible, but less precise
In "hit by a truck," the truck collides with the person.

The "got hit by that truck" phrasing strongly implies a collision or being run into. "The truck hits (runs into, collides with) the person." Therefore, Sense 2 is the clear winner here.

**Disambiguating "Truck" in a Life-or-Death Situation**

Okay, so the task is to pinpoint the exact meaning of "truck" in this sentence: "I might have got hit by that truck if it wasn't for you." Clearly, we need to disambiguate. My internal lexicon gives me two options: a "motortruck" – the classic automotive vehicle – and a "hand truck". Now, let's think critically. The implication here is a close call, a near miss, potentially life-threatening. "Getting hit" by a hand truck? Unlikely to warrant this level of gratitude or suggest a debt owed. A motortruck, on the other hand, *could* cause serious harm. This context screams automotive vehicle. Therefore, the "motortruck" sense (truck%1:06:00) is the correct interpretation. It fits the situation perfectly. Done.

**Analyzing the "Returning Favors" Context**

Okay, so the lemma is "return," and the surface form is "returning." The context here is "I believe in returning favors." My initial thought is to figure out the meaning of "returning favors." It's clear this isn't a literal "going back" sense. Let's see... I need to consider all the candidate senses.

*   Sense 1, "go or come back," definitely doesn't fit.
*   Sense 2, "give back (money)," is about money, which doesn't seem right.
*   Sense 3, "go back to a previous state," not this time.
*   Sense 4, "go back to something earlier," also doesn't fit the context.
*   Sense 5, "bring back to the point of departure," nope.
*   Sense 6, "return in kind (return a compliment; return her love)"... Hmm, this is interesting. Returning a favor is clearly about reciprocal action, like returning a compliment or love. Seems promising.
*   Sense 7, "make a return (kickback)" - again, this seems financial and not applicable.
*   Sense 8, "answer back (retort)," no.
*   Sense 9, "be restored," no.
*   Sense 10, "pay back (refund, repay, give back - refund money)," is similar to giving back. Still seems monetary.

Okay, let's go back to sense 6. "Return in kind" is the key. Returning a favor is about reciprocating a kindness, and this matches that sense perfectly. Let me double check that sense again: "return in kind," specifically with examples of a compliment or love.

Wait, is it Sense 10? Could "pay back" work with "refund, repay, give back"? No, that's specific to money. Sense 6 is definitely the correct one because that covers abstract reciprocity. It's more about doing something in return than about monetary payback.

So, just to confirm: "return a favor" means doing a favor in return. It's an instance of "return in kind."

Therefore, sense 6 is the exact match for "return%2:40:03:: return in kind." The sense index is definitely 6.

**Analyzing the Meaning of "Favors"**

Okay, so the word I need to understand is "favors," stemming from the lemma "favor," within the phrase "I believe in returning favors. I'll do anything for somebody I like." I immediately recognize that "returning favors" implies a reciprocal action, a kind gesture in response to a previous act of kindness.

Let's look at the candidate senses. I see:

1.  "an act of gracious kindness" - Bingo, this feels right.
2.  "an advantage to the benefit of someone or something" - This doesn't seem to fit the context of reciprocal kindness.
3.  "an inclination to approve" - Doesn't quite resonate with the idea of a returned action.
4.  "a feeling of favorable regard" - The idea of a feeling doesn't match the active nature of "returning."
5.  "a souvenir consisting of a small gift given to a guest at a party" - Definitely not relevant here.

Now, let's confirm. If I replace "favors" with the definition from sense 1, I get "returning an act of gracious kindness," which works perfectly. Thus, sense 1, "an act of gracious kindness," is the most accurate interpretation in this context. Done!

**Analyzing the Verb "Do" in Context**

Okay, so the lemma is "do," and the surface form is also "do," which makes things a little straightforward at the outset. The context is "I'll do anything for somebody I like." My immediate interpretation, as a starting point, is that "do" here signifies performing an action for someone.

Let's look at the candidate senses. We have: engage in (make), carry out or perform an action (perform, execute), get (something) done (perform), give rise to; cause to happen, carry out or practice; as of jobs and professions, and behave in a certain manner.

My initial thought is to consider sense 2: "carry out or perform an action." "I'll do anything" aligns with "perform an action." I need to check something important - the use of "do anything". Does the sense have a direct object? Okay, checking WordNet confirms that "do anything" strongly associates with "carry out or perform an action," which would be sense 2.

But, before I go further, let's explore sense 3, "get (something) done." Is that a possible interpretation here? I don't think it is.

The examples for sense 2, like "John did the painting," give me more confidence. The verb "do" here takes an object like "anything." It's not, "I'll perform anything". It's "do anything."

I'll check the hierarchy too.

*   do%2:36:01:: carry out or perform an action
*   do%2:41:01:: engage in (make)
*   do%2:41:04:: get (something) done (perform)

So in the phrase "do anything", "anything" is the object. "Do" is "carry out or perform an action."

Now, let's look at sense 2: "carry out or perform an action," with synonyms like "perform" and "execute". Sense 3 is "get (something) done" with the synonym perform. My context: "I'll do anything for somebody I like." My meaning is "I will perform any action." Therefore the correct meaning of "do" here is "perform an action," and this definitely points to sense 2.

I'll quickly review sense 1, "engage in (make)" which is a close relationship, but seems to be in the "make an effort" meaning.

Then I am back to sense 2: carry out or perform an action. This is the best fit.

The pro-verb aspect - "I'll do anything" often uses "do" as a very general action verb - "carry out or perform an action" makes sense.

Let me review sense 3 - "get (something) done" requires an implication of completion, which is not really here.

I'm confident. Sense 2 is the standard transitive "do" for performing an action. Definitely, it's sense 2.

**Deconstructing "Like" in Context**

Alright, let's break this down. The target is "like," and the context is "I'll do anything for somebody I like." My immediate focus is on identifying the specific meaning here. "Like" in this sentence clearly implies a feeling of affection or fondness *for* a person.

Now, let's run through the candidates. We've got a few: preferring or wishing, finding something enjoyable, being fond of, feeling about or towards, and wanting to have.

The relevant sense, based on the context, has got to be the third one, "be fond of." It fits the bill perfectly. We're talking about a feeling towards a person, that of affection, such as in the example sentence "I like my nephews." The other senses simply don't align with the emotional connection implied in the original phrase. Therefore, sense 3 is definitely the match here.

**Analyzing the Meaning of "Try" in Context**

Okay, so the target is "try," the surface form is "try," and the context is "It won't cost you a cent, Phil. Go ahead and try me"!! Phil rubbed his forehead wearily." Hmm, "try me"... It's an invitation, right? The speaker's basically saying, "Test me," test their capabilities, their willingness to do something for Phil.

Let's dive into the senses. Sense 2, try%2:41:01::, seems promising: "put to the test, as for its quality, or give experimental use to." Synonyms are spot on: test, prove, try out, examine, essay. And, hey, the examples reinforce it: "This approach has been tried with good results; Test this recipe." That's the vibe.

But I'll be thorough. Sense 7: "test the limits of," as in "You are trying my patience!" could fit, but it doesn't quite capture the invitation aspect. Sense 6, "give pain or trouble to," as in "I've been sorely tried by these students," definitely doesn't fit.

Okay, let's go back to Sense 2. "Try me" is an invitation to test the speaker's claim, basically, that they are willing to do anything. It's essentially "put me to the test" or "test me." That *is* Sense 2.

Hang on... checking the definitions to be extra sure:

1.  try%2:41:00:: make an effort or attempt
2.  try%2:41:01:: put to the test, as for its quality, or give experimental use to
3.  try%2:41:06:: put on trial (legal)
4.  try%2:34:00:: sample, taste
5.  try%2:41:05:: examine or hear (evidence)
6.  try%2:37:01:: give pain or trouble to
7.  try%2:37:00:: test the limits of
8.  try%2:30:00:: melt (fat)
9.  try%2:29:00:: try on (clothes)

Yes, looking closely, Sense 2 is the best fit. "Try me" idiomatically means "test me". Perfect.

The sense index is 2.

**Analyzing the "Rubbed" in Context**

Okay, so the task at hand is to determine the appropriate sense of "rubbed" in the sentence "Phil rubbed his forehead wearily. He was beginning to feel woolly." The target lemma is "rub," and the specific form we're looking at is "rubbed."

I've been presented with three candidate senses. Let's break them down. Sense 1 is "move over something with pressure," using examples like "rub my hands" or "rub oil into her skin". Sense 2 is "cause friction," involving actions like "fray, fret, chafe, scratch," illustrated by "my sweater scratches." Sense 3 is "scrape or rub as if to relieve itching," with related terms such as "scratch, itch," and the example "Don't scratch your insect bites!"

Looking at the provided context, the key is "Phil rubbed his forehead wearily." The description "wearily" immediately suggests a tired state. Therefore, Phil's action of rubbing his forehead is most likely a physical response to this fatigue. He's *moving* his hand *over* his forehead, and the implied pressure is indicative of the first sense, "move over something with pressure." It's not about causing friction, like a garment, nor is it related to relieving an itch.

To solidify my analysis, I can compare the provided examples with the sentence. "Rub my hands" is perfectly analogous to Phil rubbing his forehead. So, I am confident that Sense 1 is the most appropriate sense to select. My assessment results in a sense index of 1.

**Analyzing the Context of "Forehead"**

Okay, so the word I need to disambiguate is "forehead", and the surface form is, unsurprisingly, "forehead." Simple enough. The context provided is "Phil rubbed his forehead wearily. He was beginning to feel woolly." Now, let's look at the candidate senses.

We have two possibilities: "forehead%1:08:00:: | definition=the part of the face above the eyes | synonyms=brow" and "forehead%1:08:01:: | definition=the large cranial bone forming the front part of the cranium: includes the upper part of the orbits | synonyms=frontal bone, os frontale".

Given the context, the first sense is the obvious choice. When someone rubs their forehead wearily, it's a gesture directed at the external surface, the skin and the area above their eyes. It's an expression of tiredness or concern. While the *frontal bone* is technically the underlying structure, you wouldn't typically *rub* that directly. It just doesn't align with the likely intent in this usage. Sense 1 is the clear winner here.

**Analyzing the Sense of "Feel" in Context**

Okay, the target word is "feel," and the sentence is "He was beginning to feel woolly." Immediately, I recognize that "feel woolly" suggests a particular state of being – fuzz-headed, tired, maybe confused. My brain immediately starts running through the candidate senses. There's undergoing emotional sensation, like *resentment*, or believing something, like *come to believe*. I can also perceive by physical sensation, like *feel the texture*, but that doesn't seem to fit here.

Then, there's the core sense of being *conscious* of a physical or mental state – like "feel fine" or "feel tired". That's a strong contender. Also, the one about having a feeling about someone's behavior. And, undergoing a passive experience of something. And finally the last one is to be felt or perceived in a certain way.

The phrase "feel woolly" has a really obvious overlap with "feel fine" or "feel tired." They all describe an internal state. "Woolly" itself implies mental haziness or confusion, which clearly points towards the conscious state option (sense 4).

Let's do a quick comparison between sense 4 (be conscious of a state) and sense 1 (undergo an emotional sensation). Sense 1 aligns with experiences like *resentment* or *regret*. While sense 4 aligns perfectly with “She felt tired,” which is the best option given this context. "Woolly" is describing a physical/mental state, a sort of mental fatigue. Given that, I'm confident that sense 4 is the most accurate.

**Deconstructing "Woolly" in Phil's Weariness**

Okay, the target is "woolly" in this sentence about Phil rubbing his forehead – clearly, he's experiencing some kind of mental fog. My initial scan of the candidate senses brings up a few possibilities: the visual "fluffy" sense, the literal "covered in hair" sense (which includes the animal fur example), and, of course, the sense I immediately honed in on: the mental state of being "confused and vague," that "addled" feeling.

The context is key, though. Phil's rubbing his forehead wearily; he *feels* "woolly." That physical act, coupled with the word itself, screams sense number two. It's a direct match: feeling confused, having a muddled head. We're not talking about a sheep's coat or a fluffy cloud. It's about mental clarity or the lack thereof.

Just to be absolutely certain, let's revisit that definition: "confused and vague; used especially of thinking." Perfect. And those synonyms, especially "woolly-headed," they seal the deal. We're looking at a state of mental fuzziness, a cognitive fog. This is clear-cut: sense number two is the one we want.

**Analyzing the "Guy" Sense in Context**

Okay, so the word I'm focusing on is "guy," and, well, the surface form *is* "guy" – not much to analyze there! The text around it is: "Maybe it would be better to humor the guy and then make an exit."

Now, let's look at the candidate senses. We have three: a "youth or man" (sense 1), an "effigy of Guy Fawkes" (sense 2), and a "cable, wire, or rope" (sense 3). Clearly, the context dictates the appropriate interpretation here. I see the phrase "humor the guy" and then "make an exit." That strongly implies an interaction with a person. No way am I going to humor an effigy or a cable! So, from a semantic point of view, sense 1, the informal term for a person, is definitely the correct sense here. The interaction is clearly with another person, with Phil in this case. Case closed.

**Analyzing the Nuances of "Make" in "Make an Exit"**

Okay, so the target word is "make" in "make an exit." My initial thought is that it's a light verb construction – a verb that's almost empty of meaning on its own, instead lending grammatical structure to the noun. This suggests the meaning is more in the noun, the "exit" in this case.

I'm checking the possible senses, and two jump out: the "engage in" sense and the "perform or carry out" sense. Let's see which makes the best fit.

Sense 16, "perform or carry out," with examples like "make a decision" or "make a move," definitely seems promising. "Make an exit" feels very similar; "exit" is an action, the same way "decision" or "move" is. To me, "perform an exit" feels natural in that construction.

Now, checking sense 1. Does "engage in" fit? Not as readily. The examples – "make love, not war" or "make an effort" – involve an activity, a process. "Make an exit" doesn't have that feeling. Sense 16 fits better.

The key is that the "make" in "make an exit" seems to be part of a collocation, a common phrase that is almost fixed in form. I'm going back to sense 16, and comparing: `make%2:36:12::` perform or carry out, and again thinking about examples. It's the light verb "make." "make an exit" = "exit" (verb). "make a decision" = "decide" (verb). "make a move" = "move" (verb). This sense seems to be the best. Sense 16 is the standard light verb meaning for action nouns.

**Analyzing the Use of "Exit"**

Okay, so the target is "exit" in the surface form "exit," and the context is "...Maybe it would be better to humor the guy and then make an exit." My immediate thought is to zero in on the phrase "make an exit." Clearly, it's not a literal "exit" in the physical sense of a door or opening. "Make an exit" is idiomatic; it *means* to leave, to depart. That's key.

Now, let's look at the candidate senses. First, there's the physical opening sense, exit%1:06:00. No, that's not it, this isn't about a door. Second, the euphemism for death, exit%1:11:00. This is probably incorrect, the phrase is a bit too casual for a reference to death. That leaves sense three, exit%1:04:00, which is "the act of going out."

In this context, with "make an exit," the "exit" absolutely refers to *the action* of leaving, the act of departing. So, it's clear: sense 3 is the perfect fit.

1.  *expect%2:31:00::* | regard something as probable or likely | synonyms=anticipate | examples=The meteorologists are expecting rain for tomorrow
2.  *expect%2:32:00::* | consider obligatory; request and expect | synonyms=ask, require
3.  *expect%2:31:01::* | look forward to the probable occurrence of | synonyms=look, await, wait | examples=We were expecting a visit from our relatives; She is looking to a promotion
4.  *expect%2:31:05::* | consider reasonable or due | examples=I'm expecting a full explanation as to why these files were destroyed
5.  *expect%2:29:02::* | look forward to the birth of a child
6.  *expect%2:29:00::* | be pregnant with

Clearly, senses 2, 4, 5 and 6 are out. The context isn't about obligation, due explanations, or pregnancy. So that leaves senses 1 and 3.

Sense 1: "regard something as probable or likely." This fits the bill, it's what I was thinking: he didn't view it as probable. "Anticipate" is a good synonym here.

Sense 3: "look forward to the probable occurrence of."  Now, this one is interesting. "Look forward to" can mean literally wait for, but it can also be used, more broadly, to express anticipation.

Let's apply this: "He didn't expect anything to come of it" = he didn't *anticipate* it / didn't think it was *likely*. This aligns perfectly with Sense 1.

Just to be absolutely sure, let's compare those two. We are saying he didn't think anything *would happen*, it's that he didn't *anticipate* anything happening. Therefore, sense 1, "regard something as probable or likely (anticipate)", is the most accurate definition of the target word in this context. Done!

**Analyzing the "Come" Senses**

Okay, the task is to pinpoint the correct meaning of "come" in "He really didn't expect anything to come of it..." Hmm, the context is "expect *anything* to come of *it*." Initially, both sense 13 ("happen as a result") and sense 15 ("develop into") seem viable. Let's delve deeper.

Sense 13, "happen as a result," aligns with examples like "Nothing good will come of this." Sense 15, "develop into," is seen in "nothing came of his grandiose plans," where the plans fail to produce a desired outcome. The syntax in the latter is identical to "Nothing good will come of this," but the key difference lies in what's *developing* or *resulting* from what.

Rereading the context is crucial: "He really didn't expect anything to come of it..." The subject is "anything," the potential result, while "it" is the source or cause. Examining the whole paragraph clarifies that "it" refers to the interaction of "humoring the guy."

Now, is "it" a situation, an action, or a plan? Let's break this down. If "it" (the interaction/humoring) is a situation or action, "come of" means "happen as a result" (Sense 13). If it were a plan or idea, "come of" implies "develop into" (Sense 15). The distinction hinges on what the subject is. The WordNet sense keys are confirming this - "come%2:30:13:: happen as a result" and "come%2:42:11:: develop into".

Let's re-examine: "Nothing good will come of this." Here, "this" is the cause and "Nothing good" is the result. This structure aligns with "He really didn't expect anything to come of it...". "It" (the humoring) is the cause, and "anything" is the hoped for outcome - in this case, a negative outcome being predicted.

Thus, the idiom "come of" here means "happen as a result." Sense 13 is the clear winner, with the phrase "come of it" usually aligning with that interpretation. I'm going with sense 13.

**Analyzing the Context of "people"**

Okay, the target lemma is "people", and the surface form is, unsurprisingly, also "people". The context is: "He really didn't expect anything to come of it, and there were a few people... All right, he conceded..." The sentence is clearly cut off, which is a bit annoying. "and there were a few people" is the relevant phrase.

Right, the phrase "a few people" immediately makes me think of a group of human beings. Let's see... looking at the senses: 1. any group of human beings; 2. the citizens of a state; 3. family members; 4. the common people.

Sense 1 is the obvious fit. It's the most general and applicable. "there were a few people" aligns perfectly with "there were at least 200 people in the audience." The sentence fragment describes a group of individuals present in a situation. The other senses just don't make sense with the context given.

Just to be absolutely certain, "there were a few people" is clearly sense 1. Seems pretty straightforward.

**Analyzing the Usage of "Conceded"**

Okay, so the lemma is "concede," the surface form is "conceded," and here's the context: "All right," he conceded finally, "if you must know, I don't get along with the landlord." My initial thought is to run through the possible senses. We've got:

1.  admit (to a wrongdoing)
2.  be willing to concede / yield, grant
3.  give over; surrender or relinquish to the physical control of another
4.  acknowledge defeat

In this scenario, Phil is giving in, right? He was hesitant, resisting telling this person something, and then *finally* yields. He says, "All right... if you must know..." That screams of yielding to persistent inquiry. So, that leads me to sense 2: "be willing to concede / yield, grant." That fits. Think about it: granting a point, giving in to a request for information – it's all about yielding.

But...wait. Could it be number 1? "Admit to a wrongdoing?" He *is* admitting something, that he doesn't get along with the landlord. But, that's more of an admission of fact, not necessarily a wrongdoing. That's a subtle distinction. It's more about holding back information, and giving in to the request, or the pressure.

So, thinking about the conversational context, "concede" here means to yield or grant a point in an argument, or, even more subtly, giving in to a request for information. That "All right..." phrase is key.

Focusing on sense 2, the synonyms are right there: yield, grant. "I grant you this much." It's a perfect fit. He's yielding, giving in. Am I missing something? Does another sense fit? The idea of confessing/professing ("admit to a wrongdoing") doesn't quite work. He's giving in to the request to tell this person something.

The more I think about it, the more sense 2 seems right. "Yield, grant." That's the correct nuance. Okay, I'm going to choose sense 2.
