Target lemma: call_out
Target surface form: called out
Context:
No, the man was not drunk He wondered how he got tied up with this stranger. But, of course, he remembered now. It was blurred, after two hours of steady drinking, but the occasion of it came back to him. The stranger, his head seemingly sunk in thought, started to cross the street against the light just as a huge moving van roared through the intersection. Brakes howled and a horn blared furiously, but the man would have been hit if Phil hadn't <t>called out</t> to him a second before. His shout had been involuntary, something anybody might have done without thinking, on the spur of the moment.

Candidate senses:

    *   Context: "...the man would have been hit if Phil hadn't <t>called out</t> to him a second before. His shout had been involuntary..."
    *   Candidate senses:
        1.  `call_out%2:32:01::`: utter aloud; often with surprise, horror, or joy (synonyms: exclaim, cry, cry out, outcry, shout).
        2.  `call_out%2:32:00::`: call out loudly, as of names or numbers.
        3.  `call_out%2:32:12::`: challenge to a duel.

    *   The context describes a situation where someone is about to be hit by a van.
    *   Phil "called out" to the man to warn him.
    *   The next sentence explicitly refers to this action as a "shout" ("His shout had been involuntary").

    *   Sense 1: "utter aloud; often with surprise, horror, or joy" (synonyms: shout). This fits perfectly with the context of a warning shout to prevent an accident.
    *   Sense 2: "call out loudly, as of names or numbers". This is more about listing or announcing (e.g., calling out names for attendance). Not the case here.
    *   Sense 3: "challenge to a duel". Definitely not the case here.

    *   The action was a sudden, involuntary shout to warn someone. This aligns best with Sense 1.

*   Target lemma: "second"
    *   Target surface form: "second"
    *   Context: "...the man would have been hit if Phil hadn't called out to him a <t>second</t> before."
    *   Meaning: Phil called out to the man a very short time before the accident would have happened.

    *   Sense 1: 1/60 of a minute (SI unit).
    *   Sense 2: An indefinitely short time (synonyms: moment, mo, minute, bit).
    *   Sense 3: Baseball position (second base).
    *   Sense 4: A particular point in time (synonyms: moment, minute, instant).
    *   Sense 5: Following the first in an ordering or series.
    *   Sense 6: 60th part of a minute of arc (arcsecond).
    *   Sense 7: Attendant in a duel or boxing match.
    *   Sense 8: Speech seconding a motion.
    *   Sense 9: Second gear in a vehicle.
    *   Sense 10: Imperfect merchandise.

    *   The phrase "a second before" usually refers to a very brief interval of time.
    *   Sense 1 is the literal unit of time (1/60 of a minute).
    *   Sense 2 is "an indefinitely short time" (e.g., "wait just a moment").
    *   Sense 4 is "a particular point in time" (e.g., "the moment he arrived").

    *   "a second before" in this context means "a very short time before."
    *   Is it exactly 1/60 of a minute (Sense 1)? Unlikely to be meant literally.
    *   Is it an indefinitely short time (Sense 2)? This fits the idiomatic usage of "a second" to mean "a moment."
    *   Is it a particular point in time (Sense 4)? "A second before" describes a duration/interval leading up to the event, not a specific timestamp.

    *   Sense 1: 1/60 of a minute.
    *   Sense 2: an indefinitely short time.
    *   In the sentence "called out to him a second before," the word "second" is used to denote a very brief duration. This aligns best with Sense 2 ("an indefinitely short time").

    *   Wait, let's look at Sense 1 again. Often, "a second" is used as a unit of time even when not strictly measured. However, in linguistic disambiguation for WordNet, "a second" meaning "a moment" is typically mapped to the "indefinitely short time" sense.
    *   Example for Sense 2: "wait just a moment".
    *   Example for Sense 4: "the moment he arrived".
    *   The context "a second before" is very similar to "a moment before".

    *   Sense 1: 1/60 of a minute.
    *   Sense 2: an indefinitely short time.
    *   If the author meant exactly one second, it's Sense 1. If they meant "a very short time," it's Sense 2. In narrative fiction, "a second before" almost always means "a very short time before."

    *   Sense 2: "an indefinitely short time" (synonyms: moment, mo, minute, bit).
    *   Sense 4: "a particular point in time" (synonyms: moment, minute, instant).
    *   "A second before" refers to the interval. Sense 2 fits "a short time" better than Sense 4 "a particular point".

    *   Sense 1: 1/60 of a minute.
    *   Sense 2: an indefinitely short time.
    *   Comparing "a second before" to "a moment before". "Moment" is a synonym for Sense 2.

    *   Sense 1: 1/60 of a minute.
    *   Sense 2: an indefinitely short time.
    *   In many datasets, "a second" in "a second before" is treated as Sense 2 because it's not being used as a precise measurement of time.

    *   Sense 1: 1/60 of a minute.
    *   Sense 2: an indefinitely short time.
    *   Sense 4: a particular point in time.
    *   "a second before" -> "a moment before".
    *   Sense 2 synonyms: moment, mo, minute, bit.
    *   Sense 4 synonyms: moment, minute, instant.
    *   Sense 2 is about duration (short time), Sense 4 is about a point (instant). "A second before" describes the time elapsed before the event, which is a duration.

    *   Sense 2 is the most appropriate for "a second" meaning "a very short time."

*   Target lemma: `do`
    *   Target surface form: `done`
    *   Context: "His shout had been involuntary, something anybody might have <t>done</t> without thinking, on the spur of the moment."
    *   Meaning: The act of shouting (an action) that anyone might have performed.

    *   1: `engage in` (make love, make an effort) - Not quite.
    *   2: `carry out or perform an action` (perform, execute; e.g., John did the painting) - This fits well. Shouting is an action.
    *   3: `get (something) done` (perform; e.g., I did my job) - This is more about completing a task.
    *   4: `proceed or get along` (fare, make out) - Not applicable.
    *   5: `give rise to; cause to happen` (cause, make) - Not applicable.
    *   6: `carry out or practice; as of jobs and professions` (practice law) - Not applicable.
    *   7: `be sufficient; be adequate` (suffice, answer) - Not applicable.
    *   8: `create or design` (make) - Not applicable.
    *   9: `behave in a certain manner` (act, behave) - "Something anybody might have done" refers to the specific action (shouting), not general behavior.
    *   10: `spend time in prison` (serve) - Not applicable.
    *   11: `carry on or function` (manage) - Not applicable.
    *   12: `arrange attractively` (dress, arrange) - Not applicable.
    *   13: `travel or traverse` (distance) - Not applicable.

    *   The sentence says "His shout had been involuntary, something anybody might have done...".
    *   "Done" here refers to the act of shouting.
    *   Sense 2: "carry out or perform an action" (synonyms: perform, execute).
    *   Sense 3: "get (something) done" (synonyms: perform). This usually implies a task or duty (e.g., "did my job").
    *   Sense 9: "behave in a certain manner" (synonyms: act, behave). While shouting is a behavior, the phrase "something anybody might have done" points to the specific action of shouting rather than a general manner of behaving.

    *   Sense 2 is the most general and accurate description of performing a specific action like shouting.

    *   Sense 2: `carry out or perform an action` (perform, execute).
    *   Example: "John did the painting" (performed the action of painting).
    *   Context: "something anybody might have done" (performed the action of shouting).

    *   Sense 3: "get (something) done" (perform). Example: "I did my job". This is more about completion of a task.
    *   Sense 9: "behave in a certain manner". Example: "You should act like an adult". This is about conduct.

    Sense 2 is the best fit.

    *   Meaning: The character (Phil) is saying he wouldn't have felt any concern or interest in whether the stranger was hit by the truck.

    *   Sense 1: `feel concern or interest` (Examples: "I really care about my work; I don't care")

    *   Sense 5: `be concerned with` (Example: "I worry about my grades")

    *   The sentence "he wouldn't have cared at all if the guy had been hit" means he wouldn't have felt any concern or emotional investment in the outcome.
    *   Sense 1 ("feel concern or interest") fits perfectly. The example "I don't care" is almost identical in usage to "he wouldn't have cared".
    *   Sense 2 is about medical/physical care. (Incorrect)
    *   Sense 3 is about preference/desire ("Would you care for some tea?"). (Incorrect)
    *   Sense 4 is about managing/handling. (Incorrect)
    *   Sense 5 is about worrying ("I worry about my grades"). While similar to Sense 1, Sense 1 is the broader, more general "feel concern or interest" which fits the "I don't care" construction better.

    *   Sense 1: "feel concern or interest" -> "he wouldn't have cared [felt concern] at all if the guy had been hit."
    *   Sense 5: "be concerned with" (synonym: worry) -> "he wouldn't have worried at all if the guy had been hit." (Close, but "care" in "I don't care" is the classic example for Sense 1).

    *   Sense 1 is the most direct match for the phrase "wouldn't have cared at all".

Context:
It was blurred, after two hours of steady drinking, but the occasion of it came back to him. The stranger, his head seemingly sunk in thought, started to cross the street against the light just as a huge moving van roared through the intersection. Brakes howled and a horn blared furiously, but the man would have been hit if Phil hadn't called out to him a second before. His shout had been involuntary, something anybody might have done without thinking, on the spur of the moment. As a matter of fact, he wouldn't have cared at all if the guy had been hit. Actually, he <t>regretted</t> having opened his mouth when the truck came to a stop and the angry driver jumped down from the cab and walked back toward them. By then, the stranger was thanking Haney profusely and had one arm around his shoulders as if he were an old friend.

    *   Context: Phil shouted to save a stranger from being hit by a truck. After the truck stopped, the driver was angry and the stranger was overly grateful. Phil "regretted having opened his mouth" because of the resulting situation (angry driver, overly friendly stranger).

    *   Sense 1: `feel remorse for; feel sorry for; be contrite about` (Synonyms: repent, rue). This fits the feeling of wishing one hadn't done something.
    *   Sense 2: `feel sad about the loss or absence of`. (Not applicable here; he didn't lose something).
    *   Sense 3: `decline formally or politely`. (Not applicable; he's not declining an invitation).
    *   Sense 4: `express with regret`. (Not applicable; he's not formally announcing something).

    *   Phil wishes he hadn't shouted. He feels sorry that he did it because it led to an awkward or unpleasant situation. This aligns perfectly with "feel remorse for" or "rue" (Sense 1).

    *   Sense 1 is the only one that fits the context of wishing a past action had not occurred.

    *   The phrase "opened his mouth" is an idiom meaning "to start speaking."
    *   Looking at the provided senses, none of them explicitly say "to start speaking."
    *   However, sense 1 is "cause to open or to become open." Physically, to speak, one must cause their mouth to open.
    *   Let's re-evaluate. Is there a better fit?
    *   Sense 4 is "begin or set in action." (Not quite).
    *   Sense 1 is the most literal description of the physical act of opening the mouth to speak. In many WordNet-based WSD tasks, "open one's mouth" (to speak) is mapped to the general sense of "cause to open" (sense 1).

    *   Sense 1: "cause to open or to become open" (Example: Mary opened the car door).
    *   If you open your mouth, you are causing it to open.

    *   Sense 1: cause to open (Physical)
    *   Sense 2: start business
    *   Sense 3: become open (Intransitive)
    *   Sense 4: begin meeting
    *   Sense 5: unfold map
    *   Sense 6: make available
    *   Sense 7: become available
    *   Sense 8: have passage
    *   Sense 9: opening move
    *   Sense 10: afford access
    *   Sense 11: computer file

    The most appropriate sense for "opened his mouth" (meaning spoke) among these options is the general physical act of opening something (Sense 1).

    *Self-Correction:* Wait, is "open one's mouth" considered a specific sense in some versions of WordNet? Yes, but it's not listed here. Given the choices, Sense 1 is the only one that fits the physical action of opening the mouth.

    *   Context: "he regretted having opened his mouth"
    *   Action: Opening the mouth to shout.
    *   Sense 1: "cause to open or to become open"
    *   This fits best.

    *   "Opening one's mouth" to speak is a common idiom, but physically, it involves the opening through which vocalizations emerge. Sense 1 specifically mentions "vocalizations emerge".

    *   Sense 1 is the most precise fit because it explicitly mentions vocalizations.

Target lemma: driver
Target surface form: driver
Context:
It was blurred, after two hours of steady drinking, but the occasion of it came back to him. The stranger, his head seemingly sunk in thought, started to cross the street against the light just as a huge moving van roared through the intersection. Brakes howled and a horn blared furiously, but the man would have been hit if Phil hadn't called out to him a second before. His shout had been involuntary, something anybody might have done without thinking, on the spur of the moment. As a matter of fact, he wouldn't have cared at all if the guy had been hit. Actually, he regretted having opened his mouth when the truck came to a stop and the angry <t>driver</t> jumped down from the cab and walked back toward them. By then, the stranger was thanking Haney profusely and had one arm around his shoulders as if he were an old friend.

By then, the stranger was thanking Haney profusely and had one arm around his shoulders as if he were an <t>old</t> friend. So the driver started to curse at both of them as if they had been in a plot together to ruin his safe-driving record.

*   Target lemma: "old"
    *   Target surface form: "old"
    *   Context: "...the stranger was thanking Haney profusely and had one arm around his shoulders as if he were an <t>old</t> friend."

    *   Sense 1: (persons) lived for a long time/attained a specific age (age-related).
    *   Sense 2: (duration) not new (e.g., old tradition).
    *   Sense 3: (emphasis) very familiar (e.g., good old boy).
    *   Sense 4: (experience) skilled through long experience (e.g., old offender).
    *   Sense 5: (past) belonging to some prior time; former (e.g., erstwhile friend).
    *   Sense 6: (informal emphasis) honest-to-god.
    *   Sense 7: (early stage) early development (e.g., Old English).
    *   Sense 8: (preceding) just preceding something else (e.g., previous owner).

    *   The phrase is "as if he were an old friend."
    *   Does it mean the friend is elderly (Sense 1)? No.
    *   Does it mean the friendship is not new (Sense 2)? Possibly, but "old friend" usually implies familiarity or a long-standing relationship.
    *   Does it mean "very familiar" (Sense 3)? "Good old boy" is an example. "Old friend" often carries this connotation of familiarity.
    *   Does it mean "former" (Sense 5)? "Erstwhile friend" is the example. If they were "old friends" in the sense of "former friends," the context would usually imply they are no longer friends. Here, the stranger is acting *as if* they have a close, long-standing relationship.
    *   Wait, let's look closer at Sense 5: "belonging to some prior time... erstwhile, former, onetime".
    *   Let's look closer at Sense 3: "very familiar".
    *   Let's look closer at Sense 2: "of long duration; not new".

    *   "Old friend" can mean:
        a) A friend for a long time (long duration).
        b) A former friend (erstwhile).
        c) A very familiar person.

    *   In the context "as if he were an old friend," the stranger is acting with a level of intimacy and familiarity that suggests they have known each other for a long time.

    *   Sense 2: "of long duration; not new" (examples: old tradition, old house).
    *   Sense 3: "very familiar" (examples: good old boy, same old story).
    *   Sense 5: "belonging to some prior time" (synonyms: erstwhile, former).

    *   If the stranger is acting "as if he were an old friend," he is acting as if they have a long-standing relationship.
    *   Is "old friend" (long-standing) Sense 2 or Sense 5?
    *   Sense 5 is "former/erstwhile". That doesn't fit here because he's acting *friendly*, not like someone he used to know but doesn't anymore.
    *   Sense 2 is "of long duration". A friendship of long duration is an "old friendship" or "old friends".
    *   Sense 3 is "very familiar". "Good old boy" is a specific idiom.

    *   Let's re-evaluate Sense 5 again. "erstwhile friend" is listed as an example. "Old friend" can mean "former friend," but in the phrase "as if he were an old friend," it almost always means "a friend of long standing."

    *   Wait, let's look at the WordNet senses again.
    *   Sense 2: "of long duration; not new"
    *   Sense 3: "very familiar"
    *   Sense 5: "belonging to some prior time"

    *   Actually, in many WordNet versions, "old friend" (long-standing) is categorized under the sense of "long duration" or "familiar".

    *   Let's check Sense 3 again: "very familiar". Example: "good old boy".
    *   Let's check Sense 2 again: "of long duration; not new". Example: "old tradition".

    *   If I say "He is an old friend of mine," I usually mean we have been friends for a long time (long duration).

    *   Let's compare Sense 2 and Sense 5.
    *   Sense 5: "belonging to some prior time" (former).
    *   Sense 2: "of long duration".

    *   If the stranger is acting "as if he were an old friend," he is acting as if they have a long history. This fits "long duration" (Sense 2) better than "former" (Sense 5).

    *   Wait, let me search for "old friend" in WordNet.
    *   Often, "old friend" is listed under the sense of "long-standing".
    *   Looking at the provided options:
        1. Age (person)
        2. Long duration (not new)
        3. Very familiar (emphasis)
        4. Experienced
        5. Prior time (former)
        6. Genuine (informal)
        7. Early stage
        8. Preceding

    *   "Old friend" (long-standing) fits best with "of long duration" (Sense 2).

    *   Wait, let me double-check Sense 3 ("very familiar"). "Good old boy" is more of an idiomatic expression of affection/familiarity. "Old friend" is more about the length of the relationship.

    *   Let's double-check Sense 5 ("former"). "Erstwhile friend" is the example. If the stranger were acting as if they were *former* friends, it wouldn't make as much sense as acting as if they were *long-time* friends.

    *   Therefore, Sense 2 ("of long duration") is the most likely fit for "old friend" meaning "long-time friend".

    *   Wait, let me think about this again. Is "old friend" more "familiar" (Sense 3) or "long duration" (Sense 2)?
    *   "Old friend" = someone you have known for a long time.
    *   "Long duration" = Sense 2.

    *   Let's re-read the context: "...had one arm around his shoulders as if he were an old friend."
    *   This describes a behavior of familiarity resulting from a long-term relationship.

    *   Let's look at Sense 2 examples: "old tradition; old house".
    *   Let's look at Sense 3 examples: "good old boy; same old story".
    *   Let's look at Sense 5 examples: "erstwhile friend; our former glory".

    *   If "erstwhile friend" is the example for Sense 5, and "old friend" can mean "erstwhile friend," could it be Sense 5?
    *   "Erstwhile" means "former". "He is an old friend" usually doesn't mean "He is a former friend" unless the context specifies they are no longer friends. In this context, the stranger is acting *friendly*, so "long-time friend" is the intended meaning.

    *   Is "long-time friend" Sense 2 (long duration) or Sense 3 (familiar)?
    *   "Old" in "old friend" (long-time) refers to the duration of the friendship.

    *   Let's check Sense 2 again: "of long duration; not new". This fits "long-time friend" perfectly.

    *   Wait, I just noticed Sense 3: "very familiar". Could "old friend" be "very familiar"?
    *   In the phrase "good old boy," "old" doesn't mean the boy is aged or that the relationship is long-standing; it's an expression of familiarity/affection.
    *   In "old friend," the "old" typically refers to the length of time they've been friends.

    *   Let's re-verify Sense 2 vs Sense 5.
    *   Sense 2: long duration.
    *   Sense 5: former.
    *   "Old friend" can be either, but "long-time friend" is the common meaning when someone acts familiar.

    *   Let's double-check the WordNet sense keys if possible (though I shouldn't use them in the answer).
    *   old%3:00:01 (Sense 2) - of long duration; not new.
    *   old%5:00:00:past:00 (Sense 5) - belonging to some prior time.

    *   If the stranger is acting "as if he were an old friend," he's acting as if they have a long history. This is "long duration."

    *   Wait, let me search for "old friend" in a WordNet-based dictionary.
    *   "old friend" (long-standing) -> often mapped to "of long duration".
    *   "old friend" (former) -> mapped to "former".

    *   In this context, "as if he were an old friend" means they are acting with the intimacy of a long-term friendship.

    *   Final check:
        Sense 1: Age (No)
        Sense 2: Long duration (Yes - long-time friend)
        Sense 3: Familiar (No - "good old boy" is different)
        Sense 4: Experienced (No)
        Sense 5: Former (No - "erstwhile")
        Sense 6: Genuine (No)
        Sense 7: Early stage (No)
        Sense 8: Preceding (No)

    *   Wait, let me think about Sense 3 one more time. "very familiar".
    *   If you call someone an "old friend," you are emphasizing the familiarity.
    *   But the *reason* for the familiarity is the *duration* of the friendship.
    *   Sense 2: "of long duration; not new".
    *   Sense 3: "(used for emphasis) very familiar".

    *   Let's look at the examples for Sense 3 again: "good old boy; same old story". These are idiomatic. "Old friend" is more literal (duration).

    *   Let's look at Sense 2 again: "old tradition; old house". These are things that have existed for a long time. A friendship that has existed for a long time is an "old friendship," and the people are "old friends."

    *   Therefore, Sense 2 is the most accurate.
