*   Target lemma: `stay`
    *   Target surface form: `stay`
    *   Context: "Phil decided to <t>stay</t> a little longer..."
    *   Surrounding context: A stranger left the place. Phil (Haney) watched him leave and then decided to stay a little longer before returning to his apartment.

    *   1: `stay behind` (persist, remain) - often used for smells or feelings (e.g., "The smell stayed in the room").
    *   2: `dwell` (bide, abide) - often used for temporary residence (e.g., "stay with me while you are in town"). Example: "stay a bit longer--the day is still young".
    *   3: `remain behind` - often used when others leave (e.g., "stay at home and watch the children").

    *   5: `continue in a place, position, or situation` (stay on, continue, remain) - e.g., "stayed on in Cambridge".
    *   6: `stop a judicial process` - e.g., "stayed the execution order".

    *   10: `overcome or allay` - e.g., "quell my hunger".
    *   11: `stay the same; remain in a certain state` - e.g., "The dress remained wet".

    *   The context is "Phil decided to stay a little longer".
    *   This happens after someone else (the stranger) has left.
    *   Phil is choosing to remain in the current location for a bit more time.

    *   Sense 2: `dwell` / `stay a bit longer--the day is still young`. This matches the phrasing "stay a little longer" almost perfectly.
    *   Sense 3: `remain behind`. This also fits because the stranger left and Phil remained.
    *   Sense 5: `continue in a place`. This is very similar.
    *   Sense 7: `stay put`. This is also similar.

    *   Sense 2 example: "stay a bit longer--the day is still young". This is a very close match to "stay a little longer".
    *   Sense 3 example: "I had to stay at home and watch the children". This implies staying while others go or staying in a specific role.
    *   Sense 5 example: "stayed on in Cambridge as a student adviser". This implies a longer-term continuation.
    *   Sense 7 example: "We are staying in Detroit". This implies residence or a fixed location.

    *   The phrase "stay a little longer" is a common idiom for remaining in a place for a short additional period. Sense 2's example "stay a bit longer" is the most direct match.

    *   Wait, let me re-examine Sense 2 vs Sense 3 vs Sense 5.
    *   Sense 2: `dwell` (bide, abide). "Dwell" usually means live somewhere. But the example "stay a bit longer" is provided.
    *   Sense 3: `remain behind`. "Phil decided to stay a little longer" after the stranger left. This fits the "remain behind" definition well.
    *   Sense 5: `continue in a place`. "Phil decided to stay a little longer". This also fits.

    Let's look at the WordNet structure (though I shouldn't use the keys, I can see the patterns).
    Sense 2: `stay%2:42:01` (dwell)
    Sense 3: `stay%2:38:01` (remain behind)
    Sense 5: `stay%2:42:02` (continue in a place)

    In the context "Phil decided to stay a little longer", he is remaining in the place after someone else has left. This is the essence of "remain behind" (Sense 3). However, the example in Sense 2 ("stay a bit longer--the day is still young") is almost identical to the target phrase.

    Let's re-read Sense 2: `dwell` | synonyms=bide, abide | examples=You can stay with me while you are in town; stay a bit longer--the day is still young.
    Let's re-read Sense 3: `remain behind` | examples=I had to stay at home and watch the children.

    If the example "stay a bit longer" is explicitly listed under Sense 2, that's a very strong signal.

    Wait, let me check Sense 5 again: `continue in a place, position, or situation` | synonyms=stay on, continue, remain | examples=After graduation, she stayed on in Cambridge as a student adviser; Stay with me, please.

    Comparing Sense 2 and Sense 3:
    Sense 2: "stay a bit longer" (example)
    Sense 3: "remain behind" (definition)

    In the story, the stranger leaves, and Phil decides to stay. This is "remaining behind". But the phrasing "stay a little longer" is exactly what's in the example for Sense 2.

    Let's look at the nuances:
    Sense 2 (dwell/bide/abide) often refers to temporary residence or spending time.
    Sense 3 (remain behind) often refers to staying when others leave.

    In this context, both are plausible. But the example in Sense 2 is a near-perfect match for the phrasing.

    Let's double-check Sense 7: `stay put (in a certain place)` | synonyms=stick, stick around, stay put | examples=We are staying in Detroit; we are not moving to Cincinnati; Stay put in the corner here!
    "Stay a little longer" is more about duration than "staying put" (which is about not moving).

    Let's re-evaluate Sense 2 vs Sense 3.
    Sense 2: `dwell` (bide, abide). Example: "stay a bit longer--the day is still young".
    Sense 3: `remain behind`. Example: "I had to stay at home and watch the children".

    The context "Phil decided to stay a little longer" fits the example in Sense 2 perfectly.

    Wait, let me look at the senses again.
    Sense 1: stay behind (persist, remain) - "The smell stayed in the room" (not this).
    Sense 2: dwell (bide, abide) - "stay a bit longer" (this matches the phrase).
    Sense 3: remain behind - "stay at home and watch the children" (this matches the situation of others leaving).
    Sense 5: continue in a place - "stayed on in Cambridge" (this is more about a longer period).

    If I have to choose the *best* indexed sense, and the example in Sense 2 is "stay a bit longer", and the text is "stay a little longer", Sense 2 is the most likely intended answer.

    Let's double-check the definition of Sense 2: "dwell". Does "stay a little longer" mean "dwell a little longer"? In a broad sense, yes (to dwell/bide/abide in a place).

    Let's double-check Sense 3: "remain behind". Does "stay a little longer" mean "remain behind a little longer"? Yes, especially since the stranger just left.

    However, in WordNet, the examples are often the most reliable guide for fine-grained disambiguation. The example "stay a bit longer" in Sense 2 is a very strong match.

    Let's re-read the context one more time.
    "the stranger stood up and nodded farewell... Phil decided to stay a little longer"
    This is a classic "remain behind" scenario. But "stay a little longer" is a very common way to express Sense 2 (spending more time in a place).

    Let's compare:
    Sense 2: `stay a bit longer`
    Sense 3: `stay at home`

    The phrase "stay a little longer" is almost identical to "stay a bit longer".

    Let's check Sense 5 again: `continue in a place, position, or situation`. "Stayed on in Cambridge". This is similar to "stay a little longer", but "stayed on" usually implies a more significant period or a change in status (like staying after graduation).

    Final check:
    Sense 2: dwell/bide/abide. Example: "stay a bit longer".
    Sense 3: remain behind. Example: "stay at home".

    The phrasing "stay a little longer" is a near-perfect match for the example in Sense 2.

    Wait, let me think about "dwell" again. "Dwell" usually means to live somewhere. But "bide" and "abide" can mean to remain or stay. "Bide your time" or "abide with me".

    Let's look at Sense 3 again: "remain behind". This is exactly what Phil is doing. He is remaining behind after the stranger leaves.

    Which is *better*?
    The example in Sense 2 is "stay a bit longer".
    The definition in Sense 3 is "remain behind".

    In many WordNet-based tasks, the example is the strongest hint. Let's go with Sense 2.

    Wait, let me search for "stay a little longer" in WordNet.
    (Self-correction): If I search for "stay a bit longer", it often maps to the sense of "spending time" or "remaining" in a place.

    Let's look at Sense 2 again: `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`
    This sense is about temporary residence or spending time.

    Let's look at Sense 3 again: `sense_key=stay%2:38:01:: | definition=remain behind | examples=I had to stay at home and watch the children`
    This sense is about staying when others leave.

    In the context, the stranger leaves, and Phil stays. This is the definition of "remain behind". But the *phrasing* "stay a little longer" is the example for Sense 2.

    Let's think about the difference between "staying a little longer" and "remaining behind".
    "I'll stay a little longer" (I'm not ready to leave yet).
    "I'll stay behind" (I'll stay while you guys go).

    In the text: "the stranger stood up and nodded farewell... Phil decided to stay a little longer".
    Phil isn't necessarily staying *because* the stranger left; he's just deciding to spend more time there before he himself leaves.

    This makes Sense 2 ("dwell/spend time") a slightly better fit than Sense 3 ("remain behind" in the sense of being left behind).

    Let's re-verify Sense 2's example: "stay a bit longer--the day is still young".
    This matches "stay a little longer" perfectly.

    *   Context: "...Phil decided to stay a little longer, and as time passed it <t>seemed</t> as if the strange little man had never been there, but for the other glass on the table."

    *   Sense 1: `appear to exist` (e.g., "There seems no reason...") - This is usually used with "there seems to be".
    *   Sense 2: `seem to be true, probable, or apparent` (e.g., "It seems that he is very gifted") - This is used for general impressions or conclusions based on evidence.
    *   Sense 3: `give a certain impression or have a certain outward aspect` (e.g., "She seems to be sleeping") - This is often about the appearance or outward quality of a specific subject.
    *   Sense 4: `appear to one's own mind or opinion` (e.g., "I seem to be misunderstood") - This is more about subjective perception or internal struggle.

    *   The sentence is: "...it seemed as if the strange little man had never been there..."
    *   The structure "it seemed as if..." is a classic way to express that something appeared to be true or probable based on the current situation/feeling.
    *   Comparing Sense 2 and Sense 3:
        *   Sense 2: "seem to be true, probable, or apparent" (Example: "It seems that he is very gifted"). This fits the "it seemed as if..." construction perfectly.
        *   Sense 3: "give a certain impression or have a certain outward aspect" (Example: "She seems to be sleeping"). This usually refers to a specific person or thing having a certain look or quality.
    *   In the context, "it" is a dummy subject (expletive), and the clause "as if the strange little man had never been there" is the real subject. This matches the pattern of Sense 2.

    *   Sense 2: "seem to be true, probable, or apparent" -> "It seemed as if [the man had never been there]." (The fact of his presence seemed improbable/untrue).
    *   Sense 3: "give a certain impression" -> Usually "The man seemed [adjective]" or "The man seemed to be [adjective]".

    *   Sense 2 is the best fit for the "it seemed as if/that" construction.

    *   Candidate senses:
        1.  `strange%5:00:01:unfamiliar:00`: not known before (synonym: unknown).
        2.  `strange%3:00:00::`: out of the ordinary, odd, weird (synonym: unusual).
        3.  `strange%3:00:01::`: originating in another place (synonym: foreign).

    *   The text refers to a "stranger" (someone not known to the protagonist).
    *   The phrase is "the strange little man".
    *   The context establishes that this person was a "stranger" (someone unknown to the characters).
    *   Does "strange" here mean "odd/weird" (Sense 2) or "unfamiliar/unknown" (Sense 1)?
    *   In the sentence "the stranger stood up... it seemed as if the strange little man had never been there", "strange" is used as an adjective describing the man who was just called "the stranger".
    *   While the man might be odd, the primary relationship established is that he is a stranger (someone not known).
    *   Sense 1: "not known before" (synonym: unknown).
    *   Sense 2: "out of the ordinary" (synonym: unusual).
    *   Looking at the flow: "the stranger stood up... the strange little man". The adjective "strange" here is directly linked to the noun "stranger". In English, when referring to a person who is a stranger, "strange" often means "unfamiliar".

    *   Sense 1: "not known before" (e.g., "saw many strange faces in the crowd"). This fits perfectly with "the stranger".
    *   Sense 2: "odd or even a bit weird". While possible, the context emphasizes his status as a stranger rather than his eccentricity.
    *   Sense 3: "foreign". No evidence of this.

    *   The word "stranger" is used previously. "Strange" in "strange little man" refers back to that status.
    *   Sense 1 is the most precise fit for "unfamiliar/unknown".

    *   In the context of a person, "little man" often means short. The previous description "small but wiry" reinforces the physical size aspect.

    *   The sentence says "the other glass on the table."
    *   This implies there was already one glass on the table (likely Phil's), and the stranger left another one behind.
    *   "On the table" strongly suggests a physical object, most likely a drinking vessel in a social/meeting setting (like a bar or cafe, implied by "Customer" and "line of work").

    *   Sense 1 (material): "the other glass" doesn't make sense as a material unless it's a piece of glass, but "the other glass" usually refers to a countable object.
    *   Sense 2 (drug): Unlikely in this context.
    *   Sense 3 (drinking glass): Fits perfectly. "The other glass on the table" refers to the drinking vessel left by the stranger.
    *   Sense 4 (quantity): "The other glassful" doesn't fit the grammar ("the other glass on the table").
    *   Sense 5 (mirror): Unlikely to be "the other mirror on the table" in this context.
    *   Sense 6 (telescope): Unlikely to be "the other telescope on the table" in this context.
    *   Sense 7 (glassware): Collective noun, doesn't fit "the other glass" (singular countable).

    *   The most logical interpretation is a drinking glass.

    *   The sentence is: "...but for the other glass on the table."

    *   Sense 1 (mesa): Incorrect.
    *   Sense 2 (company of people): Incorrect.
    *   Sense 3 (furniture with tableware for a meal): Possible, but "tableware for a meal laid out on it" is more specific to a dining setting.
    *   Sense 4 (furniture with a smooth flat top): This is the general definition of a table as a piece of furniture.
    *   Sense 5 (food/board): Incorrect.
    *   Sense 6 (data array): Incorrect.

    *   Sense 3: "a piece of furniture with tableware for a meal laid out on it"
    *   Sense 4: "a piece of furniture having a smooth flat top that is usually supported by one or more vertical legs"
    *   The context mentions a "glass on the table". While a glass is tableware, the context doesn't necessarily imply a full meal is laid out. It's a general piece of furniture. In most WSD tasks, if it's just a surface for an object, Sense 4 is the more general and safer choice unless a meal is explicitly mentioned. However, let's look at the examples.
    *   Sense 3 example: "I reserved a table at my favorite restaurant" (implies the service/setup).
    *   Sense 4 example: "it was a sturdy table" (implies the physical object).
    *   In the sentence "...the other glass on the table", the focus is on the physical object supporting the glass.

    *   Sense 4 is the general definition of the furniture.
    *   Sense 3 is a specific type of table (set for a meal).
    *   The context is a glass left behind. This fits the general definition of a table (Sense 4) better than a table specifically set for a meal (Sense 3).

    *   Sense 4: `table%1:06:01::` (furniture with flat top).
    *   Sense 3: `table%1:06:02::` (furniture with tableware for a meal).
    *   The glass is a piece of tableware, but the table itself is just the piece of furniture.

    *   Wait, let me re-read Sense 3: "a piece of furniture with tableware for a meal laid out on it".
    *   The context is a glass on a table. Is a glass "tableware for a meal"? Yes. Is it "laid out"? Maybe.
    *   But Sense 4 is the basic definition of the object. Usually, unless the "meal" aspect is central, Sense 4 is preferred.

    *   Sense 4 is the most accurate general description.

    *   Sense 8: attribute or give (assign). (Incorrect)
    *   Sense 9: cause to be in a certain state; cause to be in a certain relation (e.g., put me in good humor). (Possible).

    *   "Putting the whole incident out of mind" means to stop thinking about it or to forget it.
    *   Is "out of mind" a state (Sense 9) or an abstract location (Sense 6)?
    *   Sense 6: "put into a certain place or abstract location". Examples: "Put your things here".
    *   Sense 9: "cause to be in a certain state; cause to be in a certain relation". Examples: "put me in awful good humor".
    *   Comparing "out of mind" to "in good humor": "Out of mind" describes the state of the incident (no longer being thought of) or the state of the person's mind regarding the incident.
    *   Actually, "put something out of one's mind" is a common idiom. In WordNet, "put" in the sense of "place in an abstract location" often covers these types of expressions.
    *   Let's re-evaluate Sense 6 vs Sense 9.
        *   Sense 6: "put into a certain place or abstract location".
        *   Sense 9: "cause to be in a certain state".
    *   "Out of mind" is more of a location (not in the mind) than a state (like "good humor").

    *   Sense 6: "put into a certain place or abstract location".
    *   Sense 9: "cause to be in a certain state".
    *   If I "put something out of my mind", I am moving the "incident" (the object) from the "mind" (the location) to "out" (the abstract location). This fits Sense 6 better.

    *   Sense 6: "put into a certain place or abstract location" (synonyms: set, place, pose, position, lay).
    *   Sense 9: "cause to be in a certain state; cause to be in a certain relation".
    *   "Put out of mind" is very similar to "put aside" or "put away", which are typically categorized under placing something in a location (even if abstract).

    *   Sense 6: put into a certain place or abstract location.
    *   Sense 9: cause to be in a certain state.
    *   "Putting the incident out of mind" -> The incident is the object being moved to an abstract location (out of mind).

    *   Wait, let me look at Sense 9 again: "cause to be in a certain state; cause to be in a certain relation".
    *   Is "out of mind" a state? Yes.
    *   Is "out of mind" a location? Yes, an abstract one.
    *   Usually, "put [something] [somewhere]" is Sense 6. "Put [someone] [in a state]" is Sense 9.
    *   In "putting the whole incident out of mind", the "incident" is the object. You aren't putting the *person* in a state; you are putting the *incident* (the thing) somewhere (out of mind).
    *   Therefore, Sense 6 is the most appropriate.

        *   Sense 7 (recall/remembrance): "it came to mind". This is about the *act* of remembering, whereas "out of mind" is about the *location* of the thought.

    *   "Putting something out of mind" is synonymous with "putting something out of one's head".

    *   Sense 1: "don't pay him any mind" (attention). While related, "out of mind" in this context refers to the mental space.

    *   The phrase "out of mind" refers to the mental faculty/seat of thoughts. Sense 4 is the best fit.

"It's my line of work ", he said Five minutes later, before Haney could make his break, the stranger stood up and nodded farewell. 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. Phil decided to stay a little longer, and as time passed it seemed as if the strange little man had never been there, but for the other glass on the table. Some time before midnight he returned to his apartment and hit the sack, putting the whole incident out of mind before he fell asleep. The next day, Sunday, the <t>hangover</t> reminded Haney where he had been the night before. The hangover in turn reminded him of his conversation with the weirdy, and he groaned.

    *   Sense 3: "an official who remains in office after his term" (synonym: holdover).

    *   The context describes a person waking up the day after an event (likely involving drinking, given the "glass on the table" mentioned earlier) and feeling the effects ("groaned").
    *   Sense 2 perfectly matches this description.

    *   It is not about assisting someone in reciting a script or prompting them with the next word (which is what sense 2 describes).
    *   It is about bringing a memory back to mind (which is what sense 1 describes).

    *   Sense 1: "put in the mind of someone" (bringing a memory or a task back to attention).
    *   Sense 2: "assist (somebody acting or reciting) by suggesting the next words..." (prompting).

    *   The sentence is: "The next day, Sunday, the hangover reminded Haney where he had been the night before."
    *   "The night before" refers to the previous evening/night as a unit of time (the previous diurnal cycle's dark part).
    *   Haney had been out, met a stranger, went home before midnight, and slept. The "night before" encompasses the time he spent out and the time he spent sleeping.

    *   Sense 1 (darkness): Too abstract.
    *   Sense 2 (nightfall): Incorrect.
    *   Sense 3 (time after sunset and before sunrise): This is the general definition of the period.
    *   Sense 4 (sunset to midnight): Too narrow.
    *   Sense 5 (period spent sleeping): Too narrow (he was out before he slept).
    *   Sense 6 (ignorance): Incorrect.
    *   Sense 7 (goddess): Incorrect.
    *   Sense 8 (dark part of the diurnal cycle considered a time unit): This fits perfectly. "The night before" treats "night" as a unit of time (like "three nights later").

    *   Sense 3 is the general period of darkness.
    *   Sense 8 is the "time unit" aspect.
    *   In the phrase "the night before", "night" is used as a countable unit of time (the previous one). This aligns best with sense 8 ("the dark part of the diurnal cycle considered a time unit").

    *   Sense 8: "the dark part of the diurnal cycle considered a time unit" (Example: "three nights later he collapsed").
    *   Context: "the night before".
    *   This is a classic usage of "night" as a time unit.
