Nobody witnessed the fall -- just the sickening impact when his body smashed on the pavement just outside the basement delivery entrance. Haney hoped that nobody noticed his sudden pallor, as he felt the blood drain from his <t>cheeks</t>. He muttered something about how terrible it was, and walked with deliberate slowness to the elevator.

The target word is "muttered".
Context: "He muttered something about how terrible it was, and walked with deliberate slowness to the elevator."
Candidate senses:
1. talk indistinctly; usually in a low voice (mumble, maunder, mussitate)
2. make complaining remarks or noises under one's breath (murmur, grumble, croak, gnarl)

In the context, he "muttered something about how terrible it was". This is talking indistinctly in a low voice, not necessarily complaining. He is trying to say something to cover up his reaction (pallor, blood draining from cheeks). He is speaking indistinctly.
Sense 1 fits "talk indistinctly; usually in a low voice".
Sense 2 is "make complaining remarks or noises under one's breath". He is not complaining, he is just saying something about how terrible it was to cover his shock.

Let's look at the synonyms: mumble, maunder, mussitate.
"muttered something" -> mumbled something.
Therefore, sense 1 is the best fit.
Let's double check.
"muttered something about how terrible it was" -> talking indistinctly.
Sense 1: talk indistinctly; usually in a low voice.
Sense 2: make complaining remarks or noises under one's breath.

I will choose sense 1.

reasoning_content:
The target word is "terrible".
Context: "He muttered something about how terrible it was, and walked with deliberate slowness to the elevator."
The event is the landlord falling off the roof and dying, a sickening impact.
Haney is reacting to this event.
Is it "causing fear or dread or terror" (1), "exceptionally bad or displeasing" (2), "intensely or extremely bad or unpleasant in degree or quality" (3), or "extreme in degree or extent or amount or impact" (4)?
Wait, "terrible" in the context of a tragic, awful event.
Let's look at the synonyms:
1. awful, dire, direful, dread, dreaded, dreadful (causing fear or dread or terror)
2. atrocious, abominable, awful, dreadful, painful, unspeakable (exceptionally bad or displeasing)
3. severe, wicked (intensely or extremely bad or unpleasant in degree or quality)
4. frightful, awful, tremendous (extreme in degree or extent or amount or impact)

Actually, "terrible" here means "awful" or "dreadful" in the sense of a tragic, horrifying event.
Wait, let's look at sense 1: "causing fear or dread or terror". The event is a sickening impact, a death.
Sense 2: "exceptionally bad or displeasing". This is more for "terrible food", "terrible movie".
Sense 3: "intensely or extremely bad or unpleasant in degree or quality".
Sense 4: "extreme in degree or extent or amount or impact".

Let's rethink: "how terrible it was" referring to the death.
Is it sense 1? "causing fear or dread or terror" -> dreadful, awful.
Or sense 2? "exceptionally bad or displeasing" -> atrocious, abominable, awful, dreadful.
Wait, WordNet sense 1 for terrible: "causing fear or dread or terror" (e.g., the awful war).
Sense 2: "exceptionally bad or displeasing" (e.g., atrocious taste).
Sense 3: "intensely or extremely bad or unpleasant in degree or quality" (e.g., severe pain).
Sense 4: "extreme in degree or extent or amount or impact" (e.g., frightful hurry).

In the context, the death is a tragic, horrifying event. "how terrible it was" = how dreadful/awful it was.
Does it cause fear or dread? "sickening impact", "blood drain from his cheeks", "trembling hands". This suggests fear, dread, or horror.
Let's check the examples for sense 1: "the awful war; an awful risk".
Sense 2: "atrocious taste; abominable workmanship".
Sense 3: "severe pain; a severe case of flu".
Sense 4: "in a frightful hurry; spent a frightful amount of money".

The context describes a horrifying, tragic event that causes Haney to feel sick, blood drain from his cheeks, trembling hands. This aligns with "causing fear or dread or terror" (sense 1) or maybe "exceptionally bad or displeasing" (sense 2)? No, "exceptionally bad or displeasing" is too mild for a fatal fall.
Wait, "terrible" meaning "dreadful" or "awful" in the sense of inspiring dread or horror.
Let's consider sense 1: "causing fear or dread or terror". Synonyms: awful, dire, direful, dread, dreaded, dreadful.
Yes, "dreadful" is a synonym for terrible in this sense. "How dreadful it was".
Let's check if there is another sense.
What about sense 1? "causing fear or dread or terror".
Is it sense 1? Yes, the event is horrifying and causes dread/terror (blood drain from cheeks, trembling hands).

Let's read the context again: "He muttered something about how terrible it was, and walked with deliberate slowness to the elevator. Once inside his apartment, he poured a drink with trembling hands and flopped limply in a chair."
The word "terrible" here means dreadful, horrifying.
Sense 1: causing fear or dread or terror.
Synonyms: awful, dire, direful, dread, dreaded, dreadful.
This fits perfectly with the reaction of horror and dread.

Let's double check sense 1 vs sense 2.
Sense 2 is "exceptionally bad or displeasing" (atrocious, abominable, awful, dreadful, painful, unspeakable). Examples: atrocious taste, abominable workmanship. This is clearly for quality judgments, not tragic events.
Sense 1 is for things that cause fear, dread, or terror, like a war, a risk, or a horrifying death.
Therefore, sense 1 is the best fit.
Another option: sense 3 "intensely or extremely bad or unpleasant in degree or quality" (severe, wicked). Examples: severe pain, severe case of flu.
Sense 4 "extreme in degree or extent or amount or impact" (frightful, awful, tremendous). Examples: frightful hurry, frightful amount of money.

So sense 1 is the most appropriate.
I will output {"sense_index": 1}.
Wait, let's review the synonyms for sense 1: awful, dire, direful, dread, dreaded, dreadful.
"how dreadful it was" fits perfectly.
"how awful it was" fits perfectly.
I am confident in sense 1.

1. carefully thought out in advance (calculated, measured)
2. unhurried and with care and dignity (careful, measured) - examples: walking at the same measured pace; with all deliberate speed

In the context, "deliberate slowness" refers to walking slowly, unhurriedly, perhaps to hide his reaction or just moving carefully. The example "walking at the same measured pace" and "with all deliberate speed" strongly aligns with "deliberate slowness".

In the context, "trembling hands" refers to the physical body part, the prehensile extremity of the superior limb.
This matches sense 1.

Let's double check.
"poured a drink with trembling hands" -> physical hands.
Sense 1: the (prehensile) extremity of the superior limb.
Sense 13: terminal part of the forelimb in certain vertebrates (e.g. apes or kangaroos).
Since it's a human ("he"), sense 1 is the correct one.

The target word is "feel" in the context: "After a while he began to <t>feel</t> better about it, especially when no one bothered to ask any questions."
The phrase is "feel better about it".
This means to be conscious of a physical, mental, or emotional state, or to undergo an emotional sensation.
Let's look at the candidate senses:
1. sense_key=feel%2:37:00:: | definition=undergo an emotional sensation or be in a particular state of mind | synonyms=experience | examples=She felt resentful; He felt regret
4. sense_key=feel%2:29:00:: | definition=be conscious of a physical, mental, or emotional state | examples=My cold is gone--I feel fine today; She felt tired after the long hike

Wait, "feel better" is very similar to "feel fine today" or "felt tired".
Let's check sense 4: "be conscious of a physical, mental, or emotional state" -> "My cold is gone--I feel fine today".
"feel better about it" -> "feel better" is a state of mind/emotional state.
Is it sense 1 or sense 4?
Sense 1: undergo an emotional sensation or be in a particular state of mind. Examples: She felt resentful; He felt regret.
Sense 4: be conscious of a physical, mental, or emotional state. Examples: My cold is gone--I feel fine today; She felt tired after the long hike.
"feel better" is exactly like "feel fine today".
Let's re-read the context: "After a while he began to feel better about it..."
"feel better" is a state.
Let's check WordNet for "feel better".
"feel" (be conscious of a physical, mental, or emotional state) -> "I feel fine today".
"feel" (undergo an emotional sensation or be in a particular state of mind) -> "She felt resentful".
Actually, "feel better" is often mapped to sense 4.
Let's consider "feel better about it".
Is it sense 4? "be conscious of a physical, mental, or emotional state"
Let's check sense 4 examples: "My cold is gone--I feel fine today"
"feel better" is a state of being.
Let's check sense 1: "undergo an emotional sensation or be in a particular state of mind"
Wait, "feel better" is a state.
Let's look at similar examples in WordNet.
"feel" (sense 4) is "be conscious of a physical, mental, or emotional state".
"feel" (sense 1) is "undergo an emotional sensation or be in a particular state of mind".
Is "feel better" sense 4? Yes, "feel fine" is sense 4.
Let's check if there is a more specific sense.
"feel better" -> "feel" + adjective.
Sense 4: "My cold is gone--I feel fine today"
I will choose sense 4.
Wait, let's look at sense 4 again. "be conscious of a physical, mental, or emotional state".
"feel better" fits perfectly.
Let's double check sense 1. "undergo an emotional sensation or be in a particular state of mind".
"feel better" is a state of mind, but "feel fine" is explicitly in sense 4.
I'll go with 4.
Let's review the context: "After a while he began to feel better about it..."
"feel better" -> sense 4.
Let's consider if "feel better about it" is sense 1. "undergo an emotional sensation or be in a particular state of mind".
Actually, "feel" + adjective (like better, fine, tired) is typically sense 4.
Let's choose 4.
Wait, "feel better about it" could be sense 4.
Let's check sense 4: "be conscious of a physical, mental, or emotional state".
Yes, 4 is the best fit.
Another option: 1. "undergo an emotional sensation or be in a particular state of mind".
But "feel fine" is 4. "feel better" is analogous to "feel fine".
I will use 4.
Let's re-read carefully: "After a while he began to feel better about it"
"feel better" -> sense 4.
I am confident in 4.

2. make a request or demand for something to somebody (She asked him for a loan)
3. direct or put; seek an answer to (ask a question)

Let's double check.
"ask a question" is the exact example for sense 3.
"ask any questions" -> "ask" + "questions".
Sense 3 is the best fit.
Sense 1 is "inquire about" (ask about).
Sense 5 is "address a question to and expect an answer from" (ask someone about something).
Sense 3 is "direct or put; seek an answer to" (ask a question).

Therefore, sense 3 is the correct choice.

The target word is "questions" in the context: "After a while he began to feel better about it, especially when no one bothered to ask any questions."
The context is about people asking him about the incident (the fall).
"ask any questions" means to make inquiries.
Sense 1: an instance of questioning (inquiry, enquiry, query, interrogation). Examples: "there was a question about my training; we made inquiries of all those who were present".
Sense 3: a sentence of inquiry that asks for a reply.
"ask any questions" usually refers to instances of questioning or inquiries.
Let's look at Sense 1: "an instance of questioning" -> "ask any questions" fits perfectly. "we made inquiries" -> "ask any questions".
Sense 3: "a sentence of inquiry that asks for a reply" -> "he asked a direct question".
In "ask any questions", it's more about the act of inquiring (instances of questioning) rather than the grammatical sentence.
Let's check the examples for Sense 1: "we made inquiries of all those who were present". "ask any questions" is very similar to "make inquiries".
Therefore, Sense 1 is the best fit.
Let's double check.
"ask any questions" -> "ask any inquiries".

The context talks about an event that was an accident, not arranged, but just a coincidence.
Sense 1: an event that might have been arranged although it was really accidental | synonyms=happenstance
Sense 2: the quality of occupying the same position or area in space
Sense 3: the temporal property of two things happening at the same time

The context clearly aligns with Sense 1: "an accident -- just a coincidence".
Therefore, the best indexed sense is 1.
I will return {"sense_index": 1}.

Target lemma: stranger
Target surface form: stranger
Context:
He muttered something about how terrible it was, and walked with deliberate slowness to the elevator. Once inside his apartment, he poured a drink with trembling hands and flopped limply in a chair. After a while he began to feel better about it, especially when no one bothered to ask any questions. But after all, why should they? Still later, he finally convinced himself that it was an accident -- just a coincidence. The <t>stranger</t> really had nothing to do with it, of course Haney went to bed, happy that at least he was rid of that lousy landlord.

The target word is "stranger".
Context: "The stranger really had nothing to do with it, of course Haney went to bed, happy that at least he was rid of that lousy landlord."
Wait, "stranger" here refers to someone Haney doesn't know, or someone who is not part of his environment?
Let's look at the candidate senses:
1. anyone who does not belong in the environment in which they are found (alien, unknown)
2. an individual that one is not acquainted with

In the context, Haney is thinking about an accident/coincidence. "The stranger really had nothing to do with it, of course Haney went to bed, happy that at least he was rid of that lousy landlord."
Wait, "stranger" here means someone he doesn't know. "an individual that one is not acquainted with".
Let's re-read carefully: "The stranger really had nothing to do with it, of course Haney went to bed, happy that at least he was rid of that lousy landlord."
Is the stranger someone he doesn't know? Yes, "stranger" usually means someone one is not acquainted with.
Sense 2: an individual that one is not acquainted with.
Let's check if there's any other nuance. "The stranger really had nothing to do with it" -> someone he doesn't know.
I will choose sense 2.
Wait, let's consider sense 1: "anyone who does not belong in the environment in which they are found". This is more like "alien" or "outsider".
Sense 2 is "an individual that one is not acquainted with". This fits "stranger" in the sense of a person one does not know.
I'll go with 2.

reasoning_content:
The target word is "lousy" in the context: "happy that at least he was rid of that lousy landlord."
The landlord is being described as lousy.
Sense 1: very bad (icky, crappy, rotten, shitty, stinking, stinky) - a lousy play; it's a stinking world.
Sense 2: infested with lice.
Sense 3: vile; despicable (dirty, filthy) - a dirty (or lousy) trick; a filthy traitor.

In the context, the landlord is described as "lousy". The protagonist is happy to be rid of him. The landlord is a person, and the protagonist is glad he's gone. "Lousy" here means very bad, crappy, or despicable.
Wait, let's look at the synonyms.
Sense 1: very bad. "a lousy play", "stinking world".
Sense 3: vile; despicable. "a dirty (or lousy) trick", "a filthy traitor".
Is a "lousy landlord" very bad or vile/despicable?
Usually, "lousy" applied to a person or their behavior in a general sense means "very bad" or "crappy".
Let's check the examples. "a lousy play" -> very bad.
Is "lousy landlord" more like "very bad" or "vile; despicable"?
Actually, "lousy" meaning "very bad" is the most common sense for "lousy landlord".
Let's consider "lousy" as "very bad".
Wait, sense 1 is "very bad". Sense 3 is "vile; despicable".
"lousy landlord" -> a very bad landlord.
Let's see: "lousy" as an adjective meaning "very bad" is sense 1.
Let's check WordNet for "lousy".
lousy (adj)
1. very bad; "a lousy play"; "it's a stinking world"
2. infested with lice; "burned their lousy clothes"
3. vile; despicable; "a dirty (or lousy) trick"; "a filthy traitor"

Is a landlord a "trick" or "traitor"? No. So sense 3 is less likely to be the primary match for "lousy landlord", which is just a general "very bad" or "crappy" landlord.
Therefore, sense 1 is the best fit.
Let's double check. "lousy landlord" -> very bad landlord.
Yes, sense 1.
Context: "happy that at least he was rid of that lousy landlord."
Synonyms for sense 1: icky, crappy, rotten, shitty, stinking, stinky. "a crappy landlord", "a shitty landlord". This fits perfectly.
Sense 3 synonyms: dirty, filthy. "a dirty landlord", "a filthy landlord". Doesn't fit as well as "crappy" or "rotten".
So sense 1 is the best.
I will output {"sense_index": 1}.

Sense 4: have ownership or possession of. Synonyms: own, possess. Examples: He owns three houses in Florida; How many cars does she have?

Sense 1: "have or possess, either in a concrete or an abstract sense"
Sense 4: "have ownership or possession of" (own, possess)
"have no family" -> abstract sense.
Let's look at Sense 1: "have or possess, either in a concrete or an abstract sense".
Let's look at Sense 4: "have ownership or possession of". You don't "own" a family.

"the man had no family"
Sense 1: have or possess, either in a concrete or an abstract sense.

The context is: "After all, the man had no family, so no one suffered, and everybody was better off for it."
The target word is "family".
The man had no family, meaning no parents, children, spouse, or relatives who would suffer from his death.
Let's look at the candidate senses:
1. a social unit living together (household, house, home, menage)
2. primary social group; parents and children (family unit)
4. people descended from a common ancestor (family line, folk, kinfolk, kinsfolk, sept, phratry)
5. a person having kinship with another or others (kin, kinsperson)

Wait, "no family" in this context means no relatives, no kin, no one to mourn him.
Sense 2: primary social group; parents and children. "he wanted to have a good job before starting a family"
Sense 4: people descended from a common ancestor. "his family has lived in Massachusetts since the Mayflower"
Sense 5: a person having kinship with another or others. "he's kin; he's family"

Wait, "the man had no family" -> he had no relatives.
Is it sense 2 or sense 4?
Let's check the examples.
Sense 2: primary social group; parents and children.
Sense 4: people descended from a common ancestor.
Sense 5: a person having kinship with another or others.

Actually, "no family" usually means no relatives (kin).
Let's consider "family" as "people descended from a common ancestor" (kinfolk, kinsfolk).
Or "primary social group; parents and children".
If a man has no family, he has no wife, children, or relatives.
Let's look at sense 2: "primary social group; parents and children".
Let's look at sense 4: "people descended from a common ancestor".
Let's look at sense 5: "a person having kinship with another or others".

Wait, "the man had no family, so no one suffered".
If he had no family, he had no relatives.
Sense 4: people descended from a common ancestor (kinfolk, kinsfolk).
Sense 2: primary social group; parents and children.
Let's search for similar examples. "he had no family" -> kinfolk.
In WordNet, "family" sense 4 is "people descended from a common ancestor" (synonyms: family line, folk, kinfolk, kinsfolk, sept, phratry).
Sense 2 is "primary social group; parents and children" (synonyms: family unit).
If someone has no family, they have no kin.
Let's check sense 4. "people descended from a common ancestor" -> kinfolk.
Is it sense 4?
Let's consider "family" meaning "relatives".
WordNet sense 4: "people descended from a common ancestor" -> kinfolk, kinsfolk.
WordNet sense 2: "primary social group; parents and children".
If the man had no family, he had no relatives.
Let's look at sense 4. "his family has lived in Massachusetts since the Mayflower".
What about sense 2? "he wanted to have a good job before starting a family".
"the man had no family" -> he had no relatives.
I think sense 4 is the best fit for "relatives" or "kin".
Wait, sense 4 is "people descended from a common ancestor".
Sense 2 is "primary social group; parents and children".
If a man has no family, he has no wife or children (primary social group) or no relatives.
Let's check sense 4 again. "people descended from a common ancestor" -> kinfolk.
Is there a better sense?
Sense 5: "a person having kinship with another or others" -> kin, kinsperson. "he's family". But "no family" is a mass noun or plural here, "no family" = no relatives.
Sense 4: "people descended from a common ancestor" -> kinfolk.
Let's choose sense 4.

Wait, if someone says "he had no family", they mean he had no relatives.
Synonyms for sense 4: family line, folk, kinfolk, kinsfolk.
Yes, "kinfolk" fits perfectly. "The man had no kinfolk, so no one suffered."
Let's double check sense 4.
"people descended from a common ancestor"
Synonyms: family line, folk, kinfolk, kinsfolk, sept, phratry.
This matches "relatives".

Let's check sense 2: "primary social group; parents and children".
If he had no family, he had no parents and children? Or no relatives at all. "kinfolk" is broader and fits "no one suffered" (no relatives to suffer).
I will go with sense 4.
Wait, let's re-read the context: "the man had no family, so no one suffered, and everybody was better off for it."
If he had no family, he had no relatives.
Sense 4: people descended from a common ancestor.
I'll select 4.
Let's consider if "family" here means "relatives". Yes.
Sense 4 is the one for relatives/kinfolk.
Let's confirm.
"family"
1. household
2. parents and children
3. class, category
4. kinfolk, kinsfolk
5. kin, kinsperson
6. taxonomic group
7. crime syndicate
8. fellowship

"no family" = no kinfolk.
So sense 4.
I will output 4.

The stranger really had nothing to do with it, of course Haney went to bed, happy that at least he was rid of that lousy landlord. After all, the man had no family, so no one <t>suffered</t>, and everybody was better off for it. Really, he said to himself, nobody kills a man just as a favor!!

reasoning_content:
The context is: "After all, the man had no family, so no one suffered, and everybody was better off for it."
The target word is "suffered".
The context implies that no one experienced emotional or physical pain, or was negatively affected, because the man had no family.
Let's look at the candidate senses:
1. undergo or be subjected to (endure)
2. undergo (as of injuries and illnesses)
3. experience (emotional) pain
4. put up with something or somebody unpleasant
5. get worse
6. feel pain or be in pain
7. feel physical pain
8. feel unwell or uncomfortable
9. be given to
10. undergo or suffer
11. be set at a disadvantage

Wait, "no one suffered" in the context of someone dying and having no family. This means no one experienced emotional pain or grief.
Sense 3: experience (emotional) pain. Examples: Every time her husband gets drunk, she suffers.
Sense 6: feel pain or be in pain.
Sense 1: undergo or be subjected to.
Let's consider "no one suffered". It means no one experienced emotional pain (grief).
Is it sense 3? "experience (emotional) pain"
Let's check sense 3: "experience (emotional) pain".
Wait, could it be sense 1? "undergo or be subjected to" - no, that's usually "suffer the penalty".
Could it be sense 3? "experience (emotional) pain". Yes, because the man had no family, so no one grieved or felt emotional pain.
Let's check sense 3 again. "Every time her husband gets drunk, she suffers".
What about sense 6? "feel pain or be in pain".
What about sense 11? "be set at a disadvantage".
In this context, "no one suffered" means no one felt the emotional pain of losing a family member.
Let's look at sense 3: experience (emotional) pain.
Is there any other sense?
"no one suffered" -> no one experienced emotional pain.
Let's review the options.
1. undergo or be subjected to
2. undergo (as of injuries and illnesses)
3. experience (emotional) pain
4. put up with something or somebody unpleasant
5. get worse
6. feel pain or be in pain
7. feel physical pain
8. feel unwell or uncomfortable
9. be given to
10. undergo or suffer
11. be set at a disadvantage

"no one suffered" -> no one experienced emotional pain.
I will choose sense 3.
Wait, let's think if "suffer" here means "experience emotional pain". Yes, "no one suffered" (from grief).
Let's double check sense 3.
"experience (emotional) pain"
Yes, this fits perfectly.
Let's consider sense 6: "feel pain or be in pain". This is more general, but sense 3 is specifically emotional pain, which fits the context of a family member dying.
I'll go with 3.
Wait, let's read the context again: "After all, the man had no family, so no one suffered, and everybody was better off for it."
This clearly refers to emotional suffering (grief).
So sense 3 is the best fit.
Another option: sense 11 "be set at a disadvantage" - no.
Sense 3 is the most appropriate.
I will output {"sense_index": 3}.

reasoning_content:
The target word is "said" in the context: "Really, he <t>said</t> to himself, nobody kills a man just as a favor!!"
The phrase is "said to himself".
Let's look at the candidate senses:
1. express in words (state, tell) - "He said that he wanted to marry her"
2. report or maintain (allege, aver)
3. express a supposition (suppose)
4. have or contain a certain wording or form (read)

7. communicate or express nonverbally
8. utter aloud
9. state as one's opinion or judgement; declare
10. recite or repeat a fixed text
11. indicate

Wait, "said to himself" is expressing in words, or uttering to oneself.
Let's check sense 1: express in words. "He said that he wanted to marry her".
Is there a better fit?
What about sense 1? "express in words"
Let's see: "he said to himself" -> he expressed in words to himself.
Wait, let's look at the options.
1. express in words
8. utter aloud (but "to himself" might not be aloud, or maybe it is, but "express in words" is more general and fits "said to himself").
Let's check WordNet for "say to oneself".
Actually, "say" as in "express in words" is the most basic sense.
"Really, he said to himself, nobody kills a man just as a favor!!"
This is expressing a thought in words (even if internally).
Sense 1: express in words. Synonyms: state, tell. Examples: He said that he wanted to marry her.
Let's consider sense 1.

Wait, is there a sense for "think to oneself"? No, "say to oneself" is literally "express in words" (even if silently).
Let's review the options.
1. sense_key=say%2:32:00:: | definition=express in words | synonyms=state, tell
8. sense_key=say%2:32:15:: | definition=utter aloud
Since it's "said to himself", it might not be aloud. Sense 1 is the most appropriate.

Let's double check if there's any other sense.
"state as one's opinion or judgement; declare" (9) - "I say let's forget this whole business"
"express in words" (1) - "He said that he wanted to marry her"

"he said to himself" -> he expressed in words to himself.
I will go with 1.
Wait, let's look at the context again: "Really, he said to himself, nobody kills a man just as a favor!!"
This is expressing a thought in words. Sense 1.
Let's confirm.
"express in words" is the standard definition for "say" in this context.
I'll output 1.
