reasoning_content:
The target word "farewell" in the context: "the stranger stood up and nodded farewell."

This describes the stranger nodding as a gesture of parting. The question is whether this refers to:
1. "an acknowledgment or expression of goodwill at parting" (a word/gesture of farewell)
2. "the act of departing politely" (the act of leaving)

The stranger "nodded farewell" - this is a gesture, an acknowledgment at parting. It's not the act of departing itself, but rather an expression/gesture of goodwill at parting. The nodding is the expression of farewell.

Sense 1 fits better: "an acknowledgment or expression of goodwill at parting" - the nod is the acknowledgment/expression.

Sense 2 is about the act of departing itself, which doesn't quite match "nodded farewell" - the nodding is the expression, not the departure.

reasoning_content:
The context is: "Haney watched the small but wiry man slip out the door quickly and silently, and felt relieved to see that nobody else seemed to notice his departure."

Here, Haney is looking at the man as he leaves. He's observing the man's departure attentively. This is about following someone with his eyes as they leave.

Let me consider the candidate senses:

1. "look attentively" - examples: watch a basketball game
2. "follow with the eyes or the mind" - synonyms: observe, follow, watch over, keep an eye on - examples: Keep an eye on the baby; The world is watching Sarajevo
3. "see or watch" - synonyms: view, see, catch, take in - examples: view a show on television
4. "observe with attention" - synonyms: look on - examples: They watched as the murderer was executed
5. "be vigilant, be on the lookout or be careful" - synonyms: look out, watch out
6. "observe or determine by looking" - examples: Watch how the dog chases the cats away
7. "find out, learn, or determine with certainty" - synonyms: determine, check, find out, see, ascertain

Sense 4 ("observe with attention") with example "They watched as the murderer was executed" seems very close to the context. Haney is watching as the man slips out the door.

Sense 2 "follow with the eyes" also fits well since Haney is tracking the man as he leaves.

Sense 1 "look attentively" is also a good fit.

Let me think more carefully. The action here is Haney watching the man as he departs. He's observing the process of the man leaving. This is a focused attention on the event unfolding.

"They watched as the murderer was executed" (sense 4) - this is watching an event happening, which is very similar to "watched the small but wiry man slip out the door."

"Follow with the eyes" (sense 2) - this is more about keeping track of something/someone over time, like "watching Sarajevo" or "keep an eye on the baby."

"Look attentively" (sense 1) - more general attentive watching.

The context of "watched...slip out the door" with the man being observed as he performs an action seems to fit sense 4 best, where the watching is tied to observing an action/event as it happens.

Actually, let me reconsider. "Keep an eye on the baby" suggests ongoing vigilance, and "The world is watching Sarajevo" is about following events. The context here is a single, brief moment of observation - watching someone leave. This is more of an "observe with attention" sense, watching the action happen.

I'll go with sense 4.

reasoning_content:
The context describes a "small but wiry man" - referring to the physical size of a person. This is about limited size/extent. Let me look at the candidate senses:

1. sense_key=small%3:00:00:: | definition=limited or below average in number or quantity or magnitude or extent - This is the adjective sense meaning limited in size/extent, which fits "small man" referring to physical stature.

2. sense_key=small%5:00:00:limited:00 | definition=limited in size or scope - This is more about scope/business size.

3. sense_key=small%5:00:00:young:00 | definition=(of children and animals) young, immature - Not about age here.

4. sense_key=small%5:00:00:little:03 | definition=slight or limited; especially in degree or intensity or scope - More about degree/intensity.

5. sense_key=small%5:00:00:inferior:01 | definition=low or inferior in station or quality - Not about social status here.

6. sense_key=small%5:00:00:lowercase:00 - Not relevant.

7. sense_key=small%5:00:00:soft:04 | definition=(of a voice) faint - Not about voice.

8. sense_key=small%5:00:00:fine:00 | definition=have fine or very small constituent particles - Not about particles.

9. sense_key=small%5:00:00:moderate:00 | definition=not large but sufficient in size or amount - Not about sufficiency.

10. sense_key=small%5:00:00:decreased:00 | definition=made to seem smaller or less - Not about being diminished.

The "small but wiry man" refers to physical size - the man is limited in physical stature. Sense 1 (small%3:00:00::) is the base adjective sense meaning "limited or below average in number or quantity or magnitude or extent" which best captures physical size. The example "a little house" is similar to describing a small man.

Sense 2 is about scope/business, which doesn't fit as well.

Sense 1 is the best match.

reasoning_content:
The context describes "the small but wiry man slip out the door quickly and silently." This refers to a male person - specifically the stranger who is described as small and wiry. This is clearly the sense of "an adult person who is male."

Sense 1 (man%1:18:00::) - adult male person - this fits perfectly.
Sense 6 (man%1:18:06::) - emphasizes manly character (virile and courageous competent) - while the man is wiry, the word "man" here is just referring to him as a male person, not emphasizing manly character.

The best sense is sense 1.

content: {"sense_index": 1}{"sense_index": 1}

reasoning_content:
The context describes a man slipping out the door "quickly and silently," and the narrative emphasizes that "nobody else seemed to notice his departure." This suggests a stealthy, quiet exit.

Looking at the candidate senses:
1. "move stealthily" - synonyms: steal - "The ship slipped away in the darkness" - this fits well with the stealthy, unnoticed departure
7. "pass on stealthily" - synonyms: sneak - "He slipped me the key when nobody was looking" - this is more about passing something stealthily

Sense 1 fits the context better: the man is moving stealthily out the door, and nobody noticed his departure. The "quickly and silently" description aligns with "move stealthily."

Sense 1 is the best match.

reasoning_content:
The context is: "Haney watched the small but wiry man slip out the door quickly and silently, and felt relieved to see that nobody else seemed to notice his departure."

Here, "the door" refers to the physical barrier/entrance of a building. The man is slipping out through the door, which he closes or passes through. This is a swinging or sliding barrier that closes the entrance to a room or building.

This matches sense 1: "a swinging or sliding barrier that will close the entrance to a room or building or vehicle" with examples like "he slammed the door as he left."

Sense 2 is about the entrance space (doorway) rather than the barrier itself. Sense 3 is metaphorical. Sense 4 is about a building structure. Sense 5 is about a room.

The best match is sense 1.

reasoning_content:
The sentence is: "Haney watched the small but wiry man slip out the door quickly and silently, and felt relieved to see that nobody else seemed to notice his departure."

"Felt relieved" - this is an emotional state. Haney experienced relief. This matches sense 1: "undergo an emotional sensation or be in a particular state of mind" with examples like "She felt resentful; He felt regret."

Sense 4 is "be conscious of a physical, mental, or emotional state" with examples like "She felt tired after the long hike." This is also close, but sense 1 seems more specific to emotional sensations, while sense 4 is more about being conscious of a state generally.

"Felt relieved" is an emotional sensation - relief is an emotion. Sense 1 fits best.

reasoning_content:
The target word is "see" in the context: "Haney watched the small but wiry man slip out the door quickly and silently, and felt relieved to <t>see</t> that nobody else seemed to notice his departure."

Here, "see" means to perceive by sight - Haney is visually observing that nobody noticed the man's departure. This is a straightforward perceptual use of "see."

Looking at the candidate senses:

1. sense_key=see%2:39:00:: | definition=perceive by sight or have the power to perceive by sight | examples=You have to be a good observer to see all the details; Can you see the bird in that tree?

This matches perfectly. Haney is using his sight to perceive that nobody else noticed the departure.

The other senses don't fit as well:
- Sense 3 (witness/find) - not quite, it's about being contemporaneous with an event
- Sense 8 (come together/meet) - no
- Sense 2 (understand) - no, it's literal perception
- Sense 7 (watch/view) - possible but the primary meaning here is perceiving by sight

Sense 1 is the best match.

The target word is "seemed" in the context: "Haney watched the small but wiry man slip out the door quickly and silently, and felt relieved to see that nobody else <t>seemed</t> to notice his departure."

Here, "seemed" means "appeared" - giving a certain impression or having a certain outward aspect. Nobody else appeared to notice his departure. This is sense 1: "give a certain impression or have a certain outward aspect" with synonyms "look, appear" and example "She seems to be sleeping."

Sense 2 is about seeming to be true or probable ("It seems that he is very gifted"), which doesn't quite fit here.
Sense 4 is about appearing to one's own mind ("I seem to be misunderstood"), which is also not quite right.

The best fit is sense 1.

reasoning_content:
The context is: "Haney watched the small but wiry man slip out the door quickly and silently, and felt relieved to see that nobody else seemed to notice his departure."

Here, "notice" means to perceive or observe someone's departure. This is about perceiving/becoming aware of something.

Sense 1: "discover or determine the existence, presence, or fact of" - synonyms: detect, observe, find, discover
Sense 2: "notice or perceive" - synonyms: mark, note

The word "notice" in this context means to perceive or observe - becoming aware of the departure. This fits well with sense 1 (detect, observe) or sense 2 (notice or perceive).

Sense 2 is defined as "notice or perceive" which is somewhat circular. Its synonyms are "mark, note" and examples are "She noted that someone was following her" and "mark my words."

Sense 1 is about discovering/determining the existence of something. Its examples involve detecting lead levels and finding traces - these are more about scientific discovery.

In this context, "nobody else seemed to notice his departure" means nobody perceived or observed the departure.

Sense 2 seems more about cognitive perception/noting, while sense 1 is more about detecting/discovering something's presence or fact.

Actually, looking more carefully:
- Sense 1: "discover or determine the existence, presence, or fact of" - this is about discovering the existence of something
- Sense 2: "notice or perceive" - this is about perceiving/being aware of something

The context is about perceiving someone's departure. This is more about perceptual awareness, which aligns with sense 2. However, sense 1 also covers perceiving presence ("detect" is a synonym).

Hmm, but "notice his departure" - the object is an event (his departure), not just a presence. "Perceive" in sense 2 seems to fit better for noticing an event/action.

Wait, let me reconsider. Sense 1 is about "existence, presence, or fact" - the departure is a fact/event that could be noticed. Sense 2 is more general "notice or perceive."

Looking at the examples:
- Sense 1: detecting high levels of lead, finding traces of lead - these are about discovering concrete facts/things
- Sense 2: noting someone was following - this is about perceiving an ongoing action

"Notice his departure" is closer to "noting someone was following" - perceiving an event.

I think sense 2 is the better fit, but sense 1 could also work. Let me think again...

Actually, in WordNet, these are closely related. Sense 2 (notice or perceive) is more about general perception, while sense 1 (discover or determine) is more about discovering the existence of something.

"Notice his departure" = perceive/observe his departure. This is general perception.

I'll go with sense 2.

Wait, but actually looking at the definitions more carefully:
- Sense 1: "discover or determine the existence, presence, or fact of" - "discover" implies first-time awareness
- Sense 2: "notice or perceive" - "notice" and "perceive" are more general

"Notice his departure" - this is about being aware of an event as it happens, which is more about perception than discovery.

I'll choose sense 2.

Actually, let me reconsider one more time. The sense 2 definition is "notice or perceive" with synonyms "mark, note" - the example "She noted that someone was following her" is very similar to "nobody else seemed to notice his departure."

Yes, sense 2 is the best match.

reasoning_content:
The target word is "stay" in the sentence: "Phil decided to <t>stay</t> a little longer, and as time passed it seemed as if the strange little man had never been there..."

This is about Phil remaining in the bar/place for a longer time. He decided to dwell/linger there a bit longer.

Looking at the candidate senses:

3. sense_key=stay%2:42:01:: | definition=dwell | synonyms=bide, abide | examples=You can stay with me while you are in town; stay a bit longer--the day is still young

The example "stay a bit longer--the day is still young" matches almost exactly with our context "stay a little longer". This is clearly the best match.

Sense 4 is about continuing in a place, position, or situation - also plausible, but sense 3 is more specific to "dwelling" for a period, and the example matches perfectly.

The answer is sense 3.

reasoning_content:
The target word "time" appears in the phrase "as time passed it seemed as if the strange little man had never been there."

This refers to the passage of time as an indefinite period - time going by. Let me look at the candidate senses:

1. sense_key=time%1:11:00:: - "an instance or single occasion for some event" - not this
2. sense_key=time%1:28:05:: - "a period of time considered as a resource under your control" - not this
3. sense_key=time%1:28:00:: - "an indefinite period (usually marked by specific attributes or activities)" - examples: "he waited a long time; the time of year for planting" - this could work
4. sense_key=time%1:28:06:: - "a suitable moment" - not this
5. sense_key=time%1:03:00:: - "the continuum of experience in which events pass from the future through the present to the past" - this is about time as a continuum
6. sense_key=time%1:11:01:: - "a person's experience on a particular occasion" - not this
7. sense_key=time%1:28:03:: - "a reading of a point in time as given by a clock" - not this
8. sense_key=time%1:28:04:: - "the fourth coordinate" - not this
9. sense_key=time%1:07:01:: - "rhythm as given by division into parts of equal duration" - not this
10. sense_key=time%1:28:01:: - "the period of time a prisoner is imprisoned" - not this

The phrase "as time passed" refers to time as a continuum - the passage of time. This matches sense 5: "the continuum of experience in which events pass from the future through the present to the past."

Sense 3 is about "an indefinite period" which is more about duration of waiting. The phrase "as time passed" emphasizes the passage/movement of time, which aligns better with the concept of time as a continuum.

Actually, let me reconsider. "As time passed" - this is about time flowing by, which is the concept of time as a continuum. Sense 5 seems most appropriate.

However, sense 3 could also work because "time passed" implies an indefinite period going by. But sense 5 is more specifically about the continuum aspect.

I'll go with sense 5.

reasoning_content:
The target word is "seemed" in the context: "as time passed it seemed as if the strange little man had never been there"

Let me analyze this usage. The sentence means "as time passed, it appeared/gave the impression as if the strange little man had never been there."

Looking at the candidate senses:
1. sense_key=seem%2:39:00:: - "give a certain impression or have a certain outward aspect" - synonyms: look, appear
2. sense_key=seem%2:39:01:: - "seem to be true, probable, or apparent" - synonyms: appear
3. sense_key=seem%2:39:02:: - "appear to one's own mind or opinion" - examples: "I seem to be misunderstood"
4. sense_key=seem%2:42:00:: - "appear to exist"

The construction "it seemed as if..." is a common way of expressing that something appears/gives the impression of being true. This is similar to the example "It seems that he is very gifted" from sense 2.

Sense 1 focuses on outward appearance ("She seems to be sleeping" - about how something looks).
Sense 2 focuses on something appearing to be true or probable ("It seems that he is very gifted" - about the truth or probability of a situation).

"It seemed as if the strange little man had never been there" is expressing that it appeared to be true that the man had never been there - this is about apparent truth, not about outward physical appearance. So sense 2 fits best.

reasoning_content:
The context describes a "strange little man" who came and went unnoticed. The man is described as "small but wiry" and slipped out "quickly and silently." The strangeness here refers to the odd, unusual, slightly weird nature of the man and his behavior - he appeared, had a brief interaction, and disappeared without anyone noticing. This fits sense 1: "being definitely out of the ordinary and unexpected; slightly odd or even a bit weird."

Sense 2 (unknown/unfamiliar) doesn't fit as well - the strangeness isn't about unfamiliarity.
Sense 3 (foreign) clearly doesn't fit.

The answer is sense 1.

The target word "little" is used in the phrase "the strange little man." Let me analyze the context:

- Earlier in the passage, Haney watches "the small but wiry man slip out the door quickly and silently"
- Then "the strange little man had never been there"
- The man is described as "small but wiry" - suggesting physical size/stature

The phrase "little man" here is describing the physical size of the man. Looking at the candidate senses:

- Sense 1: limited or below average in number or quantity or magnitude or extent - this is more about quantity/size in general
- Sense 6: low in stature; not tall - this is about physical height/size

Since the man is described as "small but wiry" and now "little," this refers to his physical size/stature. Sense 6 seems most appropriate as it's about being small in stature.

But wait, sense 1 also could apply since the man is small in general. Let me think more carefully.

Sense 1: "limited or below average in number or quantity or magnitude or extent" with examples "a little dining room; a little house" - this seems to be about physical size of objects/places.

Sense 6: "low in stature; not tall" with examples "he was short and stocky; short in stature" - this is specifically about height/stature of a person.

The context describes a man who is "small but wiry" - "wiry" suggests thin/lanky. "Little man" is being used to describe this person's physical build. Sense 6 seems most fitting because it's about a person's stature.

Actually, looking again at sense 1, the examples "a little dining room; a little house" suggest it's about the size of things in general. But the target word is modifying "man" - a person.

Sense 6 specifically addresses stature/height of a person, which matches the context of describing a man's physical size.

I'll go with sense 6.

The target word "man" appears in the phrase "the strange little man" referring to a specific individual described as "small but wiry" who slipped out the door. This is referring to an adult male person.

Let me look at the candidates:
1. "an adult person who is male (as opposed to a woman)" - adult male
6. "an adult male person who has a manly character (virile and courageous competent)" - this has a more specific meaning about character

The context describes a specific adult male person - a stranger who was in a bar/establishment. The description is about a particular male individual, not about manliness or character traits. This fits sense 1 best - simply an adult male person.

The target word is "other" in the phrase "the other glass on the table." The context is about a strange little man who visited, and after he left, the only evidence of his visit was "the other glass on the table" — meaning a second glass, one different from the one Haney had been using.

This clearly refers to "not the same one or ones already mentioned or implied" — i.e., a different/additional glass. This matches sense 1.

reasoning_content:
The context is about Haney returning to his apartment. He went out somewhere (presumably a bar, given the hangover reference), and then "returned to his apartment." This is clearly about going or coming back to a place where one has been before.

Sense 1: "go or come back to place, condition, or activity where one has been before" - This fits perfectly. He went out and then came back to his apartment.

Sense 3: "go back to a previous state" - This is about state, not place.

Sense 9: "be restored" - This is about being restored, not about physically going back.

The best fit is sense 1.
