Target lemma: seem
Target surface form: seem
Context:
Phil usually went alone and kept to himself, sitting in a corner and passing the time by nursing his favorite grudges. But he decided he wouldn't mind company in return for free drinks, even though he made good money at his job. Phil was like that. Now he wondered if it was worth it, having a screwball for company. He really didn't take the offer seriously, but he began to feel uneasy. When he finally got the coughing under control, he realized that Pete -LRB- all he gave was his first name -RRB- was still waiting for an answer -- he didn't even <t>seem</t> to wink as he continued to stare. Haney managed a weak laugh.

Candidate senses:

    *   Target surface form: `seem`
    *   Context: "...he realized that Pete... was still waiting for an answer -- he didn't even <t>seem</t> to wink as he continued to stare."
    *   Candidate senses:
        1.  `seem%2:39:00`: give a certain impression or have a certain outward aspect (synonyms: look, appear). Example: "She seems to be sleeping."
        2.  `seem%2:39:01`: seem to be true, probable, or apparent. Example: "It seems that he is very gifted."
        3.  `seem%2:42:00`: appear to exist. Example: "There seems no reason to go ahead..."
        4.  `seem%2:39:02`: appear to one's own mind or opinion. Example: "I can't seem to learn these Chinese characters."

    *   The sentence is: "...he didn't even seem to wink as he continued to stare."
    *   Here, "seem" describes the outward appearance or impression Pete was giving while staring. The observer (Phil/Haney - wait, the text says "Haney managed a weak laugh", but the narrator is describing the scene) is observing Pete's behavior.
    *   Pete's lack of winking is an outward aspect/impression.

    *   Sense 1: "give a certain impression or have a certain outward aspect" (look, appear). This fits perfectly. Pete didn't *look* like he was winking.
    *   Sense 2: "seem to be true, probable, or apparent". This is more about a general state or a proposition (e.g., "It seems that...").
    *   Sense 3: "appear to exist". This is used in existential constructions (e.g., "There seems to be...").
    *   Sense 4: "appear to one's own mind or opinion". This is often used with "can't seem to" or subjective feelings of the subject.

    *   The context "didn't even seem to wink" refers to the outward appearance of Pete.
    *   This aligns best with Sense 1.

    *   The sentence describes Pete staring at Phil.
    *   "he didn't even seem to wink as he continued to stare."
    *   This implies a lack of blinking (the physiological action of closing and opening the eyes) while staring.

    *   Sense 1 (signal): Not a signal; he's staring.
    *   Sense 2 (glow): Pete is a person, not a light.
    *   Sense 3 (briefly shut the eyes/blink): This fits perfectly. Staring without blinking (winking/blinking) is a common way to describe an intense or unsettling gaze.
    *   Sense 4 (force away): There is no mention of tears or anything to force away.

    *   Sense 3 is the best fit.

    *   The sentence is: "...he didn't even seem to wink as he continued to stare."
    *   The action is "staring."
    *   "Continued to stare" means he kept staring, he didn't stop the activity of staring.

    *   Sense 1: "continue a certain state, condition, or activity" (Example: "We continued to work into the night"). This fits perfectly. Staring is an activity.
    *   Sense 2: Specifically about talking. (Incorrect)
    *   Sense 3: Maintaining a tradition or condition. (Incorrect)
    *   Sense 4: Physical movement. (Incorrect)
    *   Sense 5: Retaining a person or property. (Incorrect)
    *   Sense 6: "do something repeatedly and showing no intention to stop" (persist in). While staring can be persistent, Sense 1 is the more general and standard fit for "continued to [verb]". Sense 6 usually implies a level of stubbornness or repetition of a discrete act rather than the continuation of a continuous state/activity like staring.
    *   Sense 7: After an interruption. (No interruption mentioned).
    *   Sense 8: Staying in a place. (Incorrect)
    *   Sense 9: Spanning distance/time. (Incorrect)

    *   Sense 1: "continue a certain state, condition, or activity" -> "continued to stare".
    *   Sense 6: "do something repeatedly and showing no intention to stop" -> "persists in".
    *   Comparing "continued to work" (Sense 1) with "continued to stare", they are structurally and semantically identical.

    *   The best fit is Sense 1.

    *   The sentence says Pete "was still waiting for an answer -- he didn't even seem to wink as he continued to stare."
    *   Pete is looking at Phil (the narrator/character) while waiting for a response.
    *   This is an action of looking at someone with fixed eyes.

    *   Sense 1: "look at with fixed eyes" (synonym: gaze). This fits perfectly. Pete is looking at Phil.
    *   Sense 2: "fixate one's eyes". This is very similar, but "look at with fixed eyes" (Sense 1) is the more standard definition for the act of staring at someone. Sense 2 often implies a more static or inherent state (like a painting) or a specific direction of fixation.

    *   Sense 1 is the general action of staring at someone.
    *   Sense 2 is "fixate one's eyes".
    *   In the context "continued to stare", Pete is actively looking at Phil. Sense 1 ("look at with fixed eyes") is the most direct fit for this interaction.

    *   Sense 1: look at with fixed eyes.
    *   Sense 2: fixate one's eyes.
    *   Looking at the examples: Sense 1 ("students stared at the teacher") is almost identical in structure to Pete staring at Phil. Sense 2 ("ancestor in the painting is staring down") describes a permanent state or a specific posture.

    *   The context describes a person (Pete) looking at another person (Phil). This aligns best with Sense 1.

        *   Sense 4: "wanting in moral strength". Not applicable here.

    *   Sense 10 describes things that are "barely perceptible" or "lacking... loudness". A laugh is a sound. A weak laugh is a faint sound.

    *   The correct sense is Sense 1.

*   Target lemma: `faint`
    *   Target surface form: `faint`
    *   Context: "A <t>faint</t> crease appeared between the man's eyebrows."
    *   Candidate senses:
        1.  `faint%5:00:00:perceptible:00`: deficient in magnitude; barely perceptible; lacking clarity or brightness or loudness etc. (Synonym: weak; Example: a faint outline)
        2.  `faint%5:00:00:indistinct:00`: lacking clarity or distinctness. (Synonyms: dim, shadowy, vague, wispy; Example: a dim figure in the distance)
        3.  `faint%5:00:00:weak:00`: lacking strength or vigor. (Synonym: feeble; Example: damning with faint praise)
        4.  `faint%5:00:00:ill:01`: weak and likely to lose consciousness. (Synonyms: light, swooning, light-headed)
        5.  `faint%5:00:02:indistinct:00`: indistinctly understood or felt or perceived. (Example: a faint clue)
        6.  `faint%5:00:00:cowardly:00`: lacking conviction or boldness or courage. (Synonym: fainthearted)

    *   The phrase is "A faint crease appeared between the man's eyebrows."
    *   A "crease" is a physical line or fold.
    *   "Faint" here describes the visibility or magnitude of the crease. It's barely there, barely perceptible.

    *   Sense 1: "deficient in magnitude; barely perceptible; lacking clarity or brightness or loudness etc" (Example: "a faint outline"). This fits perfectly. A crease that is barely perceptible is a "faint crease."
    *   Sense 2: "lacking clarity or distinctness" (Example: "a dim figure in the distance"). This is close, but Sense 1's "barely perceptible" and "deficient in magnitude" are more precise for a physical mark like a crease.
    *   Sense 3: "lacking strength or vigor" (Example: "faint praise"). This refers to intensity of effort or effect, not visual perceptibility.
    *   Sense 4: "weak and likely to lose consciousness". Not applicable.
    *   Sense 5: "indistinctly understood or felt or perceived" (Example: "a faint clue"). This is more about abstract understanding or subtle hints.
    *   Sense 6: "lacking conviction or boldness". Not applicable.

    *   Sense 1 specifically mentions "barely perceptible" and gives the example "a faint outline." A crease is essentially a line or outline on the skin. This is the best fit.

    *   Sense 13: bring into a given condition by mental preoccupation. Example: "She thought herself into a state of panic..."

    *   The sentence "I think you aren't taking me seriously" is an expression of an opinion or belief.
    *   Sense 1 ("judge or regard; look upon; judge") and Sense 2 ("expect, believe, or suppose") are very close.
    *   Let's look at the examples:
        *   Sense 1: "I think he is very smart" (Opinion/Judgment).
        *   Sense 2: "I imagine she earned a lot of money" (Supposition/Belief).
    *   "I think you aren't taking me seriously" is a judgment/belief about the current state of the other person's attitude.
    *   In many WordNet versions, "think" as in "believe" or "opine" is often mapped to these senses.
    *   Comparing Sense 1 and Sense 2:
        *   Sense 1: judge or regard; look upon; judge.
        *   Sense 2: expect, believe, or suppose.
    *   "I think you aren't taking me seriously" is more of a belief/supposition about the other person's internal state/attitude than a formal judgment of their character. However, "believe" is a synonym for both.
    *   Let's re-examine Sense 2: "expect, believe, or suppose". This fits "I think you aren't taking me seriously" (I suppose/believe you aren't taking me seriously).
    *   Let's re-examine Sense 1: "judge or regard; look upon; judge". This also fits (I judge that you aren't taking me seriously).
    *   Usually, "I think [clause]" where it means "I believe" is Sense 2 in some WordNet hierarchies, but let's look at the provided synonyms.
    *   Sense 1 synonyms: believe, consider, conceive.
    *   Sense 2 synonyms: opine, suppose, imagine, reckon, guess.
    *   "I think you aren't taking me seriously" sounds more like "I reckon" or "I suppose" (Sense 2) or "I believe" (Sense 1).
    *   Wait, let's look at the examples again.
        *   Sense 1: "I think he is very smart" (This is a judgment/opinion).
        *   Sense 2: "I imagine she earned a lot of money" (This is a supposition).
    *   "I think you aren't taking me seriously" is an opinion/judgment about the current interaction.
    *   Actually, looking at the WordNet structure (if this is based on the standard WordNet), `think.n.02` (Sense 2) is often "believe, suppose" and `think.n.01` (Sense 1) is "judge, consider".
    *   Let's check the specific glosses provided:
        *   1: judge or regard; look upon; judge.
        *   2: expect, believe, or suppose.
    *   "I think you aren't taking me seriously" is a belief about a current situation. "I believe you aren't taking me seriously."
    *   Let's compare "I think he is very smart" (Sense 1) with "I think you aren't taking me seriously". Both are opinions.
    *   However, "I think you aren't taking me seriously" is often used as a way to express a supposition or a belief based on evidence (the other person's behavior).
    *   Let's look at Sense 2 again: "expect, believe, or suppose".
    *   If I say "I think it will rain," that's Sense 2.
    *   If I say "I think he is a good man," that's Sense 1.
    *   "I think you aren't taking me seriously" is closer to "I believe/suppose you aren't taking me seriously."
    *   Let's re-evaluate Sense 1: "judge or regard; look upon; judge".
    *   Actually, in many contexts, "I think [that]..." is Sense 2 (believe/suppose).
    *   Let's look at the examples again.
        *   Sense 1: "I think he is very smart"
        *   Sense 2: "I imagine she earned a lot of money"
    *   "I think you aren't taking me seriously" is very similar to "I think he is very smart" in structure and function (expressing an opinion/belief).
    *   Wait, let's look at the synonyms for Sense 2: "opine, suppose, imagine, reckon, guess".
    *   "I reckon you aren't taking me seriously." (Fits well).
    *   "I suppose you aren't taking me seriously." (Fits well).
    *   "I believe you aren't taking me seriously." (Fits well).
    *   Now Sense 1: "believe, consider, conceive".
    *   "I believe you aren't taking me seriously." (Fits well).
    *   "I consider you aren't taking me seriously." (Doesn't fit as well grammatically).
    *   Looking at the glosses again:
        *   Sense 1: judge or regard; look upon; judge.
        *   Sense 2: expect, believe, or suppose.
    *   "I think you aren't taking me seriously" is a belief/supposition about the other person's current state of mind. This aligns slightly better with "believe or suppose" (Sense 2) than "judge or regard" (Sense 1), although they are very close.
    *   Let's double-check the examples again.
        *   Sense 1: "I think he is very smart" (Judgment of character/quality).
        *   Sense 2: "I imagine she earned a lot of money" (Supposition about a fact).
    *   "You aren't taking me seriously" is a statement about a fact (the state of Phil's mind). Therefore, "I think [fact]" aligns better with Sense 2.

    *   Sense 1: judge/regard (e.g., "I think him a fool").
    *   Sense 2: believe/suppose (e.g., "I think that he is a fool").
    *   The sentence is "I think you aren't taking me seriously" (I think [that] you aren't...). This is the "believe/suppose" usage.

*   Target lemma: `mean`
    *   Target surface form: `meant`
    *   Context: "I think you aren't taking me seriously, Phil. I <t>meant</t> it. And everybody has some kind of grudge."
    *   Key phrase: "I meant it."

    *   Sense 1: `mean or intend to express or convey` (Synonyms: intend). Example: "You never understand what I mean!"
    *   Sense 2: `have as a logical consequence` (Synonyms: entail, imply). Example: "The water shortage means that we have to stop taking long showers."
    *   Sense 3: `denote or connote` (Synonyms: intend, signify, stand for). Example: "'maison' means 'house' in French."
    *   Sense 4: `have in mind as a purpose` (Synonyms: intend, think). Example: "I mean no harm; I only meant to help you."
    *   Sense 5: `have a specified degree of importance`. Example: "My ex-husband means nothing to me."
    *   Sense 6: `intend to refer to` (Synonyms: think of, have in mind). Example: "Yes, I meant you when I complained about people who gossip!"
    *   Sense 7: `destine or designate for a certain purpose`. Example: "These flowers were meant for you."

    *   The speaker says, "I think you aren't taking me seriously... I meant it."
    *   In this context, "I meant it" means the speaker was sincere, serious, and intended the words they spoke to be taken as true or as a genuine expression of their feelings/intentions.
    *   Comparing this to the senses:
        *   Sense 1: "mean or intend to express or convey". This fits well. When someone says "I meant it," they are saying "I intended to express exactly what I said" or "I was serious in what I expressed."
        *   Sense 4: "have in mind as a purpose". This is more about intention of action (e.g., "I meant to help").
        *   Sense 6: "intend to refer to". This is about identifying a specific person or thing (e.g., "I meant you").

    *   "I meant it" is a common idiom for "I was serious about what I said."
    *   Sense 1 focuses on the expression/conveyance of meaning.
    *   Let's re-evaluate Sense 1 vs Sense 4.
        *   Sense 1: "mean or intend to express or convey" (e.g., "You never understand what I mean!")
        *   Sense 4: "have in mind as a purpose" (e.g., "I mean no harm")
    *   In "I meant it," the "it" refers to the previous statement. The speaker is asserting that the statement was a true expression of their intent/belief.
    *   Looking at WordNet's typical mapping for "I meant it" (meaning "I was serious"), it usually aligns with "intend to express or convey" (Sense 1).

    *   Sense 1: "mean or intend to express or convey" -> "I meant [what I said]."
    *   Sense 4: "have in mind as a purpose" -> "I meant [to do something]."
    *   The context "I think you aren't taking me seriously... I meant it" clearly points to the sincerity of the expression.

    *   Sense 1: `mean%2:32:01::` (intend to express)
    *   Sense 4: `mean%2:31:00::` (intend as a purpose)
    *   Sense 6: `mean%2:31:01::` (intend to refer to)
    *   The phrase "I meant it" (meaning "I was serious") is most closely aligned with intending to express or convey a certain meaning or sincerity.

    *   Wait, let me double-check Sense 1 again. "mean or intend to express or convey".
    *   Example: "You never understand what I mean!"
    *   If I say "I meant it," I am saying "That is what I intended to express."

    *   Let's check if there's a better fit.
    *   Sense 4: "have in mind as a purpose". "I meant to help you." (Not this).
    *   Sense 6: "intend to refer to". "I meant you." (Not this).

    *   Therefore, Sense 1 is the best fit.

    *   Sense 4 ("ownership or possession") is typically for concrete objects (houses, cars).

    *   Sense 1 fits perfectly: "have or possess, either in a concrete or an abstract sense". A grudge is an abstract possession.

*   Target lemma: "hit"
    *   Target surface form: "hit"
    *   Context: "I might have got hit by that truck if it wasn't for you."
    *   Meaning: The speaker is talking about a near-accident where a truck almost struck them.

    *   1: cause to move by striking (e.g., hit a ball) - No.
    *   2: hit against; come into sudden contact with (e.g., The car hit a tree) - This describes the action of the truck hitting the person.
    *   3: deal a blow to, either with the hand or with an instrument (e.g., He hit her hard in the face) - This usually implies a person hitting another person intentionally.
    *   4: reach a destination (e.g., We hit Detroit) - No.
    *   5: affect or afflict suddenly, usually adversely (e.g., hit by bad weather) - No.
    *   6: hit with a missile from a weapon - No.
    *   7: encounter by chance - No.
    *   8: gain points in a game - No.
    *   9: cause to experience suddenly (e.g., Panic struck me) - No.
    *   10: make a strategic, offensive assault - No.
    *   11: kill intentionally (murder) - No.
    *   12: drive something violently into a location (e.g., hit his fist on the table) - No.

    *   Sense 3: "deal a blow to, either with the hand or with an instrument". Example: "He hit her hard in the face".

    In the context "got hit by that truck", the truck is the agent. A truck "running into" or "colliding with" a person fits Sense 2 perfectly. Sense 3 is more about a deliberate blow (like a punch or using a stick).

    *   Context: "I might have got hit by that truck..."
    *   Sense 2: "hit against; come into sudden contact with" (Synonyms: strike, run into, collide with).

    *   The speaker says, "I might have got hit by that truck if it wasn't for you."
    *   Getting "hit by a truck" in a context implying a near-accident usually refers to a motor vehicle (automotive vehicle), not a handcart. While it's physically possible to be hit by a handcart, the common idiom and the danger implied ("if it wasn't for you") strongly suggest a motorized vehicle.

    *   Sense 1: Automotive vehicle (motortruck).
    *   Sense 2: Handcart (hand truck).

    *   Sense 1 is the most logical fit for the context of a potentially fatal or serious accident ("got hit by that truck").

    *   The speaker says, "I might have got hit by that truck if it wasn't for you. I believe in returning favors."

    *   "Returning favors" in this context means doing something kind for someone who has previously done something kind for you.

    *   Sense 1: "an act of gracious kindness" - This fits perfectly. Saving someone from a truck is an act of kindness, and returning that act is "returning a favor."

    *   Sense 4: "a feeling of favorable regard" - This is an emotion/attitude. Not an act that can be "returned" in the sense of reciprocity for a specific action.

    *   The phrase "returning favors" almost always refers to reciprocating an act of kindness.
    *   Sense 1 is the only one that describes a specific act of kindness.

    *   "I'll do anything for somebody I like."
    *   In this context, "do anything" means the speaker is willing to perform any action, carry out any task, or execute any request to return a favor.

    *   Sense 1: `engage in` (make love, make an effort) - Not quite.
    *   Sense 2: `carry out or perform an action` (perform, execute; e.g., John did the painting) - This fits well. "Do anything" = perform any action.
    *   Sense 3: `get (something) done` (perform; e.g., I did my job) - This is very similar to Sense 2, but Sense 2 is more general about performing an action.

    *   Looking at the examples:
        *   Sense 2: "John did the painting, the weeding..." (performing specific tasks).
        *   Sense 3: "I did my job" (completing a duty).
    *   "I'll do anything" means "I'll perform any action/task." This aligns most closely with Sense 2's definition of "carry out or perform an action."

    *   Sense 2 is the most general sense of performing an action. "Do anything" is a general offer to perform any action.

    *   Sense 2: `do%2:36:01::` | definition=carry out or perform an action | synonyms=perform, execute.
    *   Sense 3: `do%2:41:04::` | definition=get (something) done | synonyms=perform.
    *   In "I'll do anything," the focus is on the willingness to perform an action, not necessarily completing a specific assigned task (which Sense 3 often implies). Sense 2 is the broader, more appropriate fit.
