So you thought I didn't mean what I said. The stranger's eyes were large and sad, as if Phil Haney had hurt his feelings. It was like a recurrent, annoying dream, but now the dream was beginning to take on overtones of a nightmare. However, Haney knew it was not a dream. He might be very tight, but he knew where he was. It was the same bar, and it was two weeks later -- Saturday night, when he <t>had</t> an excuse to drink heavier than usual. He had been sitting in the usual corner at the little table, as far as possible from any talkative, friendly lushes.

*   Target lemma: `have`
    *   Target surface form: `had`
    *   Context: "...Saturday night, when he <t>had</t> an excuse to drink heavier than usual."

    *   The phrase is "had an excuse".
    *   An "excuse" is an abstract thing (a reason or justification).
    *   The character (Haney) possesses this reason/justification at that moment.

    *   1: get something; come into possession of (receive) - *Not quite, he didn't "receive" an excuse.*
    *   2: achieve a point or goal - *No.*
    *   3: suffer from; be ill with - *No.*
    *   4: be confronted with - *No.*
    *   5: receive willingly something given or offered - *No.*
    *   6: undergo (injuries/illnesses) - *No.*
    *   7: have ownership or possession of (own, possess) - *Usually refers to concrete objects (houses, cars).*
    *   8: consume regularly - *No.*
    *   9: cause to be born - *No.*
    *   10: go through (mental or physical states or experiences) - *An excuse isn't really a state or experience.*
    *   11: have as a feature - *No.*
    *   12: have or possess, either in a concrete or an abstract sense (have got, hold) - *This fits well. "Having an excuse" is possessing an abstract justification.*
    *   13: have left - *No.*
    *   14: undergo - *No.*
    *   15: personal or business relationship - *No.*
    *   16: cause to do - *No.*
    *   17: organize or be responsible for - *No.*
    *   18: cause to move - *No.*
    *   19: have sex with - *No.*

    *   Sense 7 (ownership/possession) vs. Sense 12 (possess in concrete or abstract sense).
    *   Sense 7 examples: "He owns three houses", "How many cars does she have?". These are concrete.
    *   Sense 12 examples: "She has $1,000 in the bank", "He has got two beautiful daughters". This is broader ("concrete or an abstract sense").
    *   "Having an excuse" is an abstract possession.

    *   Sense 12: "have or possess, either in a concrete or an abstract sense". This is the most general and accurate sense for "having an excuse".

    *   Candidate senses:
        1.  `excuse%1:10:01`: a note explaining an absence (e.g., school note).
        2.  `excuse%1:09:00`: a poor example (e.g., "a poor excuse for a meal").
        3.  `excuse%1:10:00`: a defense of some offensive behavior or some failure to keep a promise etc. (e.g., "finding excuses to stay").

    *   The character (Haney) has an "excuse to drink heavier than usual."
    *   This means he has a justification or a reason to justify his behavior (drinking more than usual).
    *   Sense 1 (note for absence) is clearly wrong.
    *   Sense 2 (poor example) is clearly wrong.
    *   Sense 3 (defense of behavior/justification) fits perfectly. Even though "offensive behavior" is mentioned in the definition, the core meaning is a justification or reason for doing something that might otherwise be seen as wrong or unusual.

    *   Sense 3: "a defense of some offensive behavior or some failure to keep a promise etc."
    *   Synonyms: alibi, exculpation, self-justification.
    *   Example: "he kept finding excuses to stay".
    *   In the context "an excuse to drink heavier than usual", he is justifying his increased alcohol consumption. This aligns with the "self-justification" aspect of Sense 3.

*   Target lemma: `drink`
    *   Target surface form: `drink`
    *   Context: "...Saturday night, when he had an excuse to <t>drink</t> heavier than usual."
    *   Surrounding context clues: "bar", "tight" (slang for drunk), "lushes" (people who drink excessively).

    *   Sense 1: `drink excessive amounts of alcohol; be an alcoholic` (Synonym: tope). Example: "The husband drinks and beats his wife."
    *   Sense 2: `take in liquids` (Synonym: imbibe). Example: "The patient must drink several liters each day."
    *   Sense 3: `propose a toast to` (Synonym: toast). Example: "Let's drink to the New Year."
    *   Sense 4: `be fascinated or spell-bound by` (Synonym: drink in). Example: "The mother drinks in every word..."
    *   Sense 5: `consume alcohol` (Synonyms: booze, fuddle). Example: "We were up drinking all night."

    *   The context is about being in a bar and drinking "heavier than usual."
    *   Sense 2 (general liquids) is too broad.
    *   Sense 3 (toasting) doesn't fit "drink heavier than usual."
    *   Sense 4 (fascinated) is metaphorical and doesn't fit.
    *   Sense 1 vs. Sense 5:
        *   Sense 1: "drink excessive amounts of alcohol; be an alcoholic."
        *   Sense 5: "consume alcohol."
    *   The phrase "drink heavier than usual" implies consuming alcohol, and while "heavier" suggests excess, the act itself is the consumption of alcohol.
    *   Looking at the synonyms: Sense 1 (tope) vs Sense 5 (booze, fuddle).
    *   "Drink heavier than usual" describes the *amount* or *intensity* of the consumption of alcohol.
    *   Sense 1 often refers to a habit or a state of being an alcoholic ("The husband drinks...").
    *   Sense 5 refers to the act of consuming alcohol.
    *   Wait, let's re-evaluate Sense 1: "drink excessive amounts of alcohol". "Drink heavier than usual" fits "excessive amounts" quite well.
    *   However, Sense 5 is the general "consume alcohol".
    *   In many WordNet-based datasets, "drink" meaning "consume alcohol" (Sense 5) is the standard for general alcohol consumption, while Sense 1 is specifically for chronic alcoholism or habitual excessive drinking.
    *   "Drink heavier than usual" suggests a specific occasion (Saturday night) rather than a general state of being an alcoholic, although the character might be one.
    *   Let's look at the examples again.
        *   Sense 1: "The husband drinks and beats his wife" (habitual/chronic).
        *   Sense 5: "We were up drinking all night" (activity).
    *   "He had an excuse to drink heavier than usual" describes the activity of consuming alcohol on that specific night.

    *   Sense 5: consume alcohol.
    *   Sense 1: drink excessive amounts / be an alcoholic.
    *   "Drink heavier than usual" is a modification of the act of consuming alcohol.
    *   If the sentence was "He drinks," it might be Sense 1. But "to drink heavier than usual" points to the act of consuming alcohol (Sense 5).

    *   Sense 1: tope (habitual excessive drinking).
    *   Sense 5: booze, fuddle (consuming alcohol).
    *   The context "drink heavier than usual" fits the act of consuming alcohol (Sense 5) modified by an adverbial phrase ("heavier than usual").

    *   Sense 1: drink excessive amounts of alcohol; be an alcoholic.
    *   Sense 5: consume alcohol.
    *   "Drink heavier than usual" -> "Consume alcohol in larger quantities than usual."
    *   Is "drink heavier" synonymous with "tope"? Tope means to drink habitually or excessively.
    *   Is "drink heavier" synonymous with "booze"? Booze means to drink alcohol.
    *   Usually, "drink" in the sense of alcohol is Sense 5, and the "alcoholic" sense is Sense 1.

    *   Context: "Saturday night, when he had an excuse to drink heavier than usual."
    *   This is a specific instance of drinking alcohol.
    *   Sense 5 is the most appropriate for the act of consuming alcohol.

    *   "Drink heavier than usual" means "drink more than he normally does" or "more than is his regular practice".
    *   Sense 2 explicitly mentions "in accordance with regular practice or procedure".

        3.  `communicative`: friendly and open and willing to talk (expansive).

    *   The character (Phil Haney) is sitting in a bar, trying to avoid "talkative, friendly lushes."
    *   The word "friendly" modifies "lushes" alongside "talkative."
    *   The context suggests people who are chatty or sociable in a bar setting, rather than people who are leaking secrets (indiscreet) or specifically "expansive" in a deep emotional way (though "expansive" can be a result of alcohol).
    *   "Full of trivial conversation" (Sense 1) fits the description of "chatty" people in a bar.
    *   "Friendly and open and willing to talk" (Sense 3) also fits, especially given the pairing with "friendly."

    *   Sense 1 (voluble/chatty): Focuses on the *amount* and *triviality* of the talk.
    *   Sense 3 (communicative/expansive): Focuses on the *willingness* and *openness* to talk, often associated with being friendly or under the influence of alcohol (example: "wine made the guest expansive").

    *   The phrase is "talkative, friendly lushes."
    *   "Lushes" (heavy drinkers) are often characterized as being chatty or garrulous when drunk.
    *   Sense 1's synonyms (chatty, gabby, garrulous) are very common descriptors for this type of behavior.
    *   Sense 3's synonym "expansive" is also very fitting for alcohol-induced talkativeness.
    *   However, "talkative" in the sense of "chatty" (Sense 1) is the most general and common meaning when describing people who talk a lot in a social setting like a bar.
    *   Let's look at the distinction again:
        *   Sense 1: "full of trivial conversation" (chatty).
        *   Sense 3: "friendly and open and willing to talk" (expansive).
    *   The context says "talkative, friendly lushes." Since "friendly" is already there as a separate adjective, "talkative" likely refers to the *act* of talking a lot (chatty/voluble) rather than the *willingness* to be friendly (which is already covered by "friendly").

    *   If the author wrote "talkative, friendly," they are likely using "talkative" to mean "chatty" (Sense 1) and "friendly" to mean "amiable."
    *   If "talkative" meant "friendly and open" (Sense 3), it would be redundant with "friendly."

    *   Sense 1: chatty, gabby, garrulous.
    *   Sense 2: indiscreet (doesn't fit).
    *   Sense 3: expansive (friendly and open).

    The most natural fit for "talkative" when paired with "friendly" to describe people in a bar is "chatty" (Sense 1).

While the definition "inclined to help or support" might seem slightly off for a "lush," the synonym "amicable" and the general sense of "not hostile" (i.e., being social/friendly) fit best.

    *Wait, let me re-evaluate Sense 1 vs Sense 4.*
    Sense 1: "characteristic of or befitting a friend"
    Sense 4: "inclined to help or support; not antagonistic or hostile"

    In the phrase "talkative, friendly lushes," "friendly" describes the personality of the people.
    Looking at WordNet's structure:
    `friendly%3:00:01` is an adjective.
    `friendly%5:00:00:amicable:00` is an adjective.

    Actually, looking at common usage, "friendly" as in "a friendly person" is often mapped to the sense of being amiable/sociable.
    Sense 1: "friendly advice" (the advice is like what a friend would give).
    Sense 4: "a government friendly to our interests" (favorable).

    Let's look at the options again.
    1. characteristic of or befitting a friend.
    4. inclined to help or support; not antagonistic or hostile.

    If someone is a "friendly lush," they are being amiable, sociable, and not hostile. This aligns better with Sense 4 (amicable).

    Wait, let me double-check the WordNet senses for "friendly".
    Usually, "friendly" (sociable) is a primary sense.
    Sense 1: "characteristic of or befitting a friend" (e.g., a friendly smile, friendly advice).
    Sense 4: "inclined to help or support; not antagonistic or hostile" (e.g., a friendly government).

    Actually, "friendly" in "friendly lushes" means sociable/amiable.
    Between 1 and 4:
    Sense 1 is often used for behavior (a friendly greeting).
    Sense 4 is often used for attitudes/dispositions (a friendly neighbor, a friendly government).

    Let's re-read Sense 1: "characteristic of or befitting a friend".
    Let's re-read Sense 4: "inclined to help or support; not antagonistic or hostile".

    In the context of "talkative, friendly lushes," the people are being sociable. "Amicable" (Sense 4) fits this better than "befitting a friend" (Sense 1).

    *Self-Correction:* Let me look at the examples again.
    Sense 1: "friendly advice; a friendly neighborhood"
    Sense 4: "a government friendly to our interests; an amicable agreement"

    Actually, "a friendly neighborhood" in Sense 1 is a bit odd, but it suggests a general atmosphere.
    "Friendly lushes" describes the people's demeanor.

    Let's compare:
    - "He is a friendly person." (Sociable/Amiable)
    - "He gave me friendly advice." (Like a friend would)

    "Friendly lushes" is describing the people.
    If I have to choose between 1 and 4:
    Sense 1: characteristic of a friend.
    Sense 4: not antagonistic or hostile.

    Actually, in many WordNet versions, the "sociable" sense is listed separately. Here, we have these four.
    Sense 4's synonym is "amicable". Amicable means friendly in spirit.
    Sense 1 is more about the *quality* of the interaction.

    Let's look at the context again: "talkative, friendly lushes". This is a description of their personality/behavior in the bar. They are being sociable.
    "Not antagonistic or hostile" (Sense 4) is a broader definition of friendly/amicable.

    Let's re-examine Sense 1: "characteristic of or befitting a friend".
    If someone is "friendly", they act in a way that a friend would.

    This is a tough call between 1 and 4. Let's look at the examples again.
    Sense 1: "friendly advice"
    Sense 4: "a government friendly to our interests"

    Wait, "friendly advice" is something a friend gives. "Friendly lushes" are people who are acting friendly.
    If we look at the synonym "amicable" for Sense 4, that fits "friendly" (the personality trait) very well.

    Let's try to find which one fits "sociable" better.
    Sense 1: characteristic of a friend.
    Sense 4: not antagonistic.

    Actually, "friendly" in "friendly lushes" means they are trying to be friends/sociable.
    If I search for "friendly" in WordNet, the sense "inclined to be friends" or "sociable" is often the primary one.
    Looking at the provided options:
    Sense 1: characteristic of or befitting a friend.
    Sense 4: inclined to help or support; not antagonistic or hostile.

    If the lushes are "talkative" and "friendly", they are being amiable. "Amicable" is a synonym for Sense 4.

    Let's double-check Sense 1 again. "A friendly neighborhood". That's a strange example for "befitting a friend". It probably means a neighborhood where people are friendly to each other.

    Let's think about the word "friendly" in "friendly lushes". It means they are acting in a friendly manner.
    Sense 1: characteristic of a friend.
    Sense 4: not antagonistic.

    Actually, Sense 4's definition "inclined to help or support" doesn't perfectly fit "sociable lushes", but "not antagonistic or hostile" does.

    Let's re-evaluate Sense 1. "Characteristic of or befitting a friend". A friend is typically sociable and kind.

    Wait, let me look at the sense keys.
    `friendly%3:00:01`
    `friendly%5:00:00:amicable:00`

    The `%5` usually indicates a different WordNet version or a different synset structure (like the WordNet 3.0 vs 3.1 or the way the senses are grouped).

    Let's look at the context again. "talkative, friendly lushes".
    This is a very common use of "friendly" meaning "sociable".
    Between "characteristic of a friend" and "not antagonistic", "not antagonistic" (amicable) is a closer fit for a general personality trait of being friendly to strangers in a bar.

    Let's try to see if "friendly" in "friendly lushes" means they are *acting* like friends (Sense 1) or that they are *amicable* (Sense 4).
    If you are a "friendly person", you are amicable.

    Let's check Sense 1 again: "friendly advice". The advice itself is friendly.
    In "friendly lushes", the *people* are friendly.

    Therefore, Sense 4 (the personality trait of being amicable/not hostile) is a better fit than Sense 1 (the quality of an action/thing being like that of a friend).

    *Wait*, let me search for "friendly" in WordNet again.
    Sense 1: `friendly` (adj) - characteristic of a friend.
    Sense 2: `friendly` (adj) - (of a person) acting in a friendly manner.

    If Sense 4 is "amicable", that's almost exactly "acting in a friendly manner".

    Let's double-check the options one more time.
    1. characteristic of or befitting a friend
    2. easy to understand or use
    3. belonging to your own country's forces
    4. inclined to help or support; not antagonistic or hostile

    Sense 4 is the only one that describes a general disposition of being non-hostile/amicable.

    Final check:
    Context: "talkative, friendly lushes"
    Sense 1: "friendly advice" (The advice is friendly)
    Sense 4: "a government friendly to our interests" (The government is friendly/amicable)
    The lushes are friendly (amicable/sociable).

    Sense 4 seems the most plausible.

        2.  `enjoy%2:39:00::` (have for one's benefit) - e.g., industry enjoyed a boom.
        3.  `enjoy%2:37:00::` (derive or receive pleasure from; get enjoyment from; take pleasure in) - synonyms: bask, relish, savor.

        5.  `enjoy%2:34:00::` (take delight in) - synonyms: delight, revel.

    *   The character (Haney) is drinking bourbon and thinking about his "pet grievance."
    *   The phrase "enjoying the weekly ritual" suggests he finds a certain satisfaction or pleasure in this repetitive, perhaps slightly masochistic or comforting, habit.
    *   "Washing down his pet grievance" implies a savoring of the feeling or the act.

    *   Sense 1 & 2: These are about benefits or possession of a positive state (privileges, boom). Not applicable here.
    *   Sense 3: "derive or receive pleasure from; get enjoyment from; take pleasure in" (synonyms: relish, savor). This fits well with a "ritual" and the act of drinking bourbon while dwelling on a grievance.
    *   Sense 4: "get pleasure from" (synonym: love). This is a more general sense of liking something.
    *   Sense 5: "take delight in" (synonyms: delight, revel). This is often more intense or active than "enjoying a ritual."

    *   Sense 3 (relish, savor) captures the nuance of a ritualistic, slow pleasure better than Sense 4 (love) or Sense 5 (revel). The act of "washing down his pet grievance" is a specific, savoring experience.

    *   Sense 3: derive or receive pleasure from; get enjoyment from; take pleasure in.
    *   Context: "enjoying the weekly ritual..."
    *   This is a classic use of "enjoy" meaning to take pleasure in an activity.

    *   Sense 3 is the most precise fit for "enjoying a ritual."

    *   Sense 3: "an allegation that something imposes an illegal obligation or denies some legal right or causes injustice" (Focus: legal/formal allegation).

    *   The context describes a "pet grievance" and a "favorite grievance" that the character ruminates on while drinking alone in a bar.
    *   This is a personal, emotional state of resentment or a long-held grudge, rather than a formal complaint (Sense 1) or a legal allegation (Sense 3).
    *   "Pet grievance" strongly suggests a personal grudge or a recurring resentment that one enjoys dwelling on.
    *   Sense 2 ("a resentment strong enough to justify retaliation", synonyms: "grudge", "score") fits the psychological state of someone nursing a "pet grievance" while drinking.

    *   Sense 1 is a "complaint... grounds for action". While a grudge is a type of grievance, "pet grievance" in this context is more about the feeling of resentment than the act of complaining or seeking a specific remedy.
    *   Sense 2 is "resentment... grudge". This aligns perfectly with "pet grievance" and the act of "washing it down with bourbon" (nursing a grudge).
    *   Sense 3 is too formal/legal.

    *   The character is brooding. "Pet grievance" is a common idiom for a long-held grudge. Sense 2 explicitly lists "grudge" as a synonym.

*   Target word: "grievance"
    *   Context: "He was enjoying the weekly ritual of washing down his pet grievance with bourbon slightly moistened with water. This favorite grievance was not the landlord."
    *   Key phrases: "pet grievance", "washing down... with bourbon", "favorite grievance".

    *   Sense 1: "an allegation that something imposes an illegal obligation or denies some legal right or causes injustice" (Legal/formal context).
    *   Sense 2: "a resentment strong enough to justify retaliation" (Synonyms: grudge, score).
    *   Sense 3: "a complaint about a (real or imaginary) wrong that causes resentment and is grounds for action".

    *   The context describes a "pet grievance" that the character "washes down with bourbon". This implies a personal, recurring feeling of being wronged or a complaint he dwells on.
    *   Sense 1 (legal allegation) is too formal and doesn't fit the "pet grievance" / drinking in a bar vibe.
    *   Sense 2 (resentment justifying retaliation/grudge) is close, but "pet grievance" usually refers to a specific complaint or a perceived wrong that one likes to dwell on, rather than necessarily a grudge seeking retaliation.
    *   Sense 3 (complaint about a wrong causing resentment) fits "pet grievance" perfectly. A "pet grievance" is a specific complaint someone frequently brings up or thinks about.

    *   Sense 2 focuses on the *resentment* and *retaliation* (grudge).
    *   Sense 3 focuses on the *complaint* about the wrong.
    *   "Pet grievance" is a common idiom for a complaint someone dwells on. While it involves resentment, the "pet" aspect emphasizes the nature of the complaint itself.

    *   Sense 3 is the most fitting for a "pet grievance" that one ruminates on while drinking.

Target lemma: forget
Target surface form: forgotten
Context:
He might be very tight, but he knew where he was. It was the same bar, and it was two weeks later -- Saturday night, when he had an excuse to drink heavier than usual. He had been sitting in the usual corner at the little table, as far as possible from any talkative, friendly lushes. He was enjoying the weekly ritual of washing down his pet grievance with bourbon slightly moistened with water. This favorite grievance was not the landlord. He had already quite <t>forgotten</t> about him. In fact, he had only mentioned him on the spur of the moment.

Candidate senses:
1. sense_key=forget%2:31:01:: | definition=dismiss from the mind; stop remembering | synonyms=bury | examples=I tried to bury these unpleasant memories
2. sense_key=forget%2:31:00:: | definition=be unable to remember | synonyms=block, blank out, draw a blank | examples=I'm drawing a blank; You are blocking the name of your first wife!
3. sense_key=forget%2:31:02:: | definition=leave behind unintentionally | synonyms=leave | examples=I forgot my umbrella in the restaurant; I left my keys inside the car and locked the doors
4. sense_key=forget%2:31:03:: | definition=forget to do something | examples=Don't forget to call the chairman of the board to the meeting!

*   Target lemma: `forget`
    *   Target surface form: `forgotten`
    *   Context: "This favorite grievance was not the landlord. He had already quite <t>forgotten</t> about him."
    *   Candidate senses:
        1.  `forget%2:31:01::`: dismiss from the mind; stop remembering (synonym: bury)
        2.  `forget%2:31:00::`: be unable to remember (synonyms: block, blank out, draw a blank)
        3.  `forget%2:31:02::`: leave behind unintentionally (synonym: leave)
        4.  `forget%2:31:03::`: forget to do something

    *   The sentence is: "He had already quite forgotten about him."
    *   The "him" refers to the landlord.
    *   The context describes a character's internal state of mind regarding a "grievance."
    *   "Forgotten about him" in this context means the character is no longer thinking about the landlord or the grievance associated with him. He has stopped remembering/thinking about him.

    *   Sense 1: "dismiss from the mind; stop remembering". This fits perfectly. The character is no longer dwelling on the landlord.
    *   Sense 2: "be unable to remember". This usually implies a failure of memory retrieval (e.g., "I forgot his name"). Here, it's not that he can't recall who the landlord is, but that he's no longer thinking about him.
    *   Sense 3: "leave behind unintentionally". This refers to physical objects (e.g., "forgot my umbrella"). Not applicable.
    *   Sense 4: "forget to do something". This refers to an omitted action. Not applicable.

    *   Sense 1 is the best fit. "Stop remembering" or "dismiss from the mind" aligns with "forgotten about him" in the context of a grievance.

*   Target lemma: `mention`
    *   Target surface form: `mentioned`
    *   Context: "In fact, he had only <t>mentioned</t> him on the spur of the moment."
    *   Surrounding context: The narrator is talking about a "favorite grievance." He had forgotten about the landlord, but had "mentioned" him on the spur of the moment. His real grievance was Lolly.

    *   Sense 1: `commend` (synonyms: cite; example: cited for outstanding achievements). This is about praise.
    *   Sense 2: `make mention of` (synonyms: note, observe, remark; examples: observed that his presentation took up too much time). This is about making a comment or observation.
    *   Sense 3: `make reference to` (synonyms: advert, bring up, cite, name, refer; example: His name was mentioned in connection with the invention). This is about referring to someone or something.

    *   The character "mentioned" the landlord on the spur of the moment.
    *   Does this mean he commended him (Sense 1)? No.
    *   Does this mean he made a remark/observation about him (Sense 2)? Possibly.
    *   Does this mean he made reference to him/brought him up in conversation (Sense 3)? Yes.

    *   Sense 2 (`make mention of`) and Sense 3 (`make reference to`) are very close.
    *   Sense 2 synonyms: `note`, `observe`, `remark`. These often imply a specific observation or comment *about* something.
    *   Sense 3 synonyms: `advert`, `bring up`, `cite`, `name`, `refer`. These imply the act of bringing someone/something into the conversation.
    *   In the context "he had only mentioned him on the spur of the moment," the focus is on the act of bringing the landlord up in conversation, rather than making a specific observation about him. "Bring up" (Sense 3) fits perfectly.

    *   Sense 1: Commend (Incorrect)
    *   Sense 2: Note/Observe (Less fitting)
    *   Sense 3: Refer/Bring up (Most fitting)
