Target lemma: secret
Target surface form: secret
Context:
This favorite grievance was not the landlord. He had already quite forgotten about him. In fact, he had only mentioned him on the spur of the moment. His real grievance was Lolly. Toward the end of his fourth hairy highball, while he was moodily making wet rings on the table-top with the bottom of the glass, he became aware that he was not alone. He looked up with bloodshot eyes and beheld the stranger sitting across the table, smiling a <t>secret</t> smile at him, as if they were fellow conspirators. He hadn't even noticed -- what was his name? Pete? -- he hadn't seen him sit down.

*   Target word: "secret"
    *   Context: "...beheld the stranger sitting across the table, smiling a <t>secret</t> smile at him, as if they were fellow conspirators."
    *   Key phrase: "smiling a secret smile at him, as if they were fellow conspirators."

    *   1: (of information) given in confidence or in secret (confidential).
    *   2: conducted with or marked by hidden aims or methods (clandestine, surreptitious).
    *   3: having an import not apparent to the senses nor obvious to the intelligence (mysterious, occult).
    *   4: hidden from general view or use (privy, secluded).
    *   5: designed to elude detection (hidden, e.g., secret passage).
    *   6: not openly made known (unavowed, e.g., secret marriage).
    *   7: communicated covertly (e.g., secret signal).
    *   8: not open or public; kept private or not revealed (e.g., secret formula).

    *   10: not expressed (private thoughts).
    *   11: official classification for documents.

    *   The "secret smile" is described as being like "fellow conspirators."
    *   A "secret smile" usually means a smile that conveys a private understanding or a hidden meaning known only to the person smiling (and perhaps the person they are smiling at), not necessarily a "confidential" piece of information (Sense 1) or a "clandestine operation" (Sense 2).
    *   However, looking at the options:
        *   Sense 10: "not expressed" (private thoughts). A smile is an expression, but the *meaning* behind it is not expressed.
        *   Sense 2: "conducted with or marked by hidden aims or methods." A smile isn't really a "method" or "operation," but the *intent* behind the smile might be.
        *   Sense 8: "not open or public; kept private or not revealed."
        *   Sense 10: "not expressed" (private thoughts).
    *   Let's re-evaluate "secret smile." A secret smile is one that suggests the person knows something others don't, or shares a private joke/understanding.
    *   Comparing Sense 10 ("not expressed") and Sense 2 ("hidden aims").
    *   Wait, let's look at Sense 10 again: "not expressed | synonyms=private | examples=secret (or private) thoughts". A smile is an expression, but the *reason* for the smile is the secret.
    *   Let's look at Sense 2: "conducted with or marked by hidden aims or methods". This is often used for "secret missions."
    *   Let's look at Sense 8: "not open or public; kept private or not revealed".
    *   Let's look at Sense 10 again. "Secret thoughts" are thoughts not expressed. A "secret smile" is a smile that hints at thoughts not expressed.
    *   Actually, let's look at the "fellow conspirators" part. Conspirators share a secret. The smile reflects that shared, unexpressed understanding.
    *   Is there a better fit?
        *   Sense 1: confidential information.
        *   Sense 2: clandestine/surreptitious.
        *   Sense 3: mysterious/esoteric.
        *   Sense 6: unavowed.
        *   Sense 10: not expressed (private).

    *   "Secret smile" is a common collocation. It usually means a smile that hides a thought or feeling, or shares a private joke.
    *   Sense 10: "not expressed" (private thoughts).
    *   Sense 2: "marked by hidden aims".
    *   If I smile a "secret smile," I am expressing something, but the *content* of the secret is not expressed.
    *   Let's check Sense 10 again: "not expressed | synonyms=private | examples=secret (or private) thoughts".
    *   Let's check Sense 2 again: "conducted with or marked by hidden aims or methods | synonyms=clandestine, cloak-and-dagger...". This feels too strong (like a spy mission).
    *   Let's check Sense 8: "not open or public; kept private or not revealed | examples=a secret formula". This is for things like recipes.
    *   Let's check Sense 6: "not openly made known | synonyms=unavowed | examples=a secret marriage".

    *   A "secret smile" is often interpreted as a smile that indicates a private thought or a shared secret.
    *   Sense 10 (not expressed/private) fits the "private thought" aspect.
    *   Sense 2 (hidden aims) fits the "conspirators" aspect.
    *   Wait, "as if they were fellow conspirators" suggests a shared secret or a hidden agenda.
    *   If the smile is "marked by hidden aims," Sense 2 fits.
    *   If the smile is "private/not expressed," Sense 10 fits.
    *   Let's look at the synonyms for Sense 2: clandestine, surreptitious. A "surreptitious smile" is a smile you try to hide. A "secret smile" is often one you *do* show, but the meaning is hidden.
    *   Let's look at Sense 10 again: "not expressed". This is usually for thoughts.
    *   Let's look at Sense 8: "not open or public; kept private or not revealed".
    *   Let's look at Sense 2 again: "marked by hidden aims".

    *   "Secret smile" usually means the person is thinking of something they aren't telling others.
    *   Sense 10: "not expressed" (private thoughts).
    *   Sense 2: "marked by hidden aims".
    *   In the context of "fellow conspirators," the smile is a sign of a shared secret.
    *   Let's re-read Sense 10: "not expressed | synonyms=private | examples=secret (or private) thoughts".
    *   Let's re-read Sense 2: "conducted with or marked by hidden aims or methods".
    *   A smile isn't really "conducted." But it can be "marked by hidden aims."
    *   However, "secret smile" is most frequently associated with private, unshared thoughts.

    *   Sense 1: confidential info
    *   Sense 2: clandestine/surreptitious (hidden aims)
    *   Sense 3: mysterious/esoteric
    *   Sense 4: secluded place
    *   Sense 5: hidden place
    *   Sense 6: unavowed (marriage)
    *   Sense 7: covert signal
    *   Sense 8: not public (formula)
    *   Sense 9: covert indulgence (alcoholic)
    *   Sense 10: not expressed (thoughts)
    *   Sense 11: classified

    *   If the smile is "secret" because it's a sign of a conspiracy, it's "marked by hidden aims" (Sense 2).
    *   If the smile is "secret" because it's a private feeling, it's "not expressed" (Sense 10).
    *   The phrase "as if they were fellow conspirators" strongly points toward a shared, hidden agenda or understanding. This aligns better with "hidden aims" (Sense 2) than just "private thoughts" (Sense 10).
    *   Wait, let me double-check "surreptitious" (synonym for Sense 2). A surreptitious smile is one you try to keep secret. A "secret smile" is often one that is visible but whose meaning is secret.
    *   Let's look at Sense 10 again. "Secret thoughts" are thoughts not expressed. A "secret smile" is an expression of a secret thought.
    *   Let's look at Sense 2 again. "Clandestine, cloak-and-dagger, surreptitious." These are very strong words.
    *   Is there any other sense? Sense 8: "not open or public; kept private or not revealed."
    *   Let's compare Sense 2 and Sense 10 again.
    *   "Secret smile" -> The smile itself isn't secret (the narrator sees it), but the *meaning* is.
    *   Sense 10: "not expressed" (referring to the thoughts behind the smile).
    *   Sense 2: "marked by hidden aims".

    *   "He looked up... and beheld the stranger... smiling a secret smile at him, as if they were fellow conspirators."
    *   The smile is the *sign* of the secret.
    *   If the smile is "marked by hidden aims," it fits the "conspirators" part perfectly.
    *   Let's check if "secret smile" is commonly mapped to Sense 2 or Sense 10 in WSD datasets.
    *   Actually, "secret smile" often means a smile that suggests the person knows something that others do not. This is a "private" or "unexpressed" thought.
    *   Let's re-examine Sense 10: "not expressed | synonyms=private | examples=secret (or private) thoughts".
    *   Let's re-examine Sense 2: "conducted with or marked by hidden aims or methods".
    *   A "secret smile" isn't usually "conducted." It's an expression.
    *   Let's look at Sense 8: "not open or public; kept private or not revealed".
    *   Wait, let's look at Sense 10 again. If the smile is "secret," it means the *reason* for the smile is not expressed.

    *   Sense 2: clandestine, surreptitious.
    *   Sense 10: private, not expressed.
    *   A "secret smile" is more "private" than "clandestine."
    *   "Fellow conspirators" implies a shared secret.
    *   If I have a "secret smile," I am smiling about something I'm not telling. That is a "private" or "not expressed" thought.

    *   Sense 10: "not expressed" (private thoughts).
    *   Sense 2: "marked by hidden aims".
    *   The "conspirators" part is a simile ("as if"). The smile itself is "secret."
    *   A "secret smile" is a very common phrase for a smile that hides a private thought.
    *   Let's try Sense 10.

    *   Wait, let me look at Sense 2 again. "marked by hidden aims or methods".
    *   If the smile is "secret" because it's part of a conspiracy, it's "marked by hidden aims."
    *   Let's search for "secret smile" and "WordNet."
    *   In many cases, "secret" as in "secret smile" or "secret joy" is mapped to the sense of "private" or "not expressed."
    *   Sense 10: "not expressed | synonyms=private | examples=secret (or private) thoughts".
    *   This seems the most plausible.

    *   Sense 1: confidential (info) - No.
    *   Sense 2: clandestine (aims) - Possible, but "secret smile" is usually more about the private nature of the thought.
    *   Sense 3: esoteric (mysterious) - No.
    *   Sense 4: secluded (place) - No.
    *   Sense 5: hidden (place) - No.
    *   Sense 6: unavowed (marriage) - No.
    *   Sense 7: covert (signal) - No.
    *   Sense 8: not public (formula) - No.
    *   Sense 9: covert (alcoholic) - No.
    *   Sense 10: not expressed (thoughts) - Yes.
    *   Sense 11: classified (document) - No.

    *   "Secret smile" = a smile that indicates a private thought.
    *   Sense 10 = "not expressed" (private thoughts).
    *   This is a strong match.

    *   Wait, let me double-check Sense 2 one more time. "marked by hidden aims or methods".
    *   If the smile is "secret" because it's a "conspirator's smile," it could be Sense 2.
    *   But "secret smile" is a standard idiom for a smile that hides a private thought.
    *   Let's compare:
        *   "He gave her a secret smile." (Private thought/understanding)
        *   "They had a secret meeting." (Clandestine/hidden aims)
    *   The "secret" in "secret smile" is more like the "secret" in "secret thoughts."

    *   Sense 10: "not expressed | synonyms=private | examples=secret (or private) thoughts".
    *   This fits "secret smile" perfectly.

    *   Surrounding context: The character was moodily drinking, became aware he wasn't alone, looked up and saw a stranger. He hadn't seen the man sit down.

    *   Sense 1: `notice%2:32:01::` - express recognition of the presence or existence of (synonym: acknowledge). (e.g., acknowledging colleagues in a hallway). This is a social action.
    *   Sense 2: `notice%2:39:04::` - discover or determine the existence, presence, or fact of (synonyms: detect, observe, find, discover). (e.g., detecting lead in water). This often implies a discovery of a fact or a physical substance.
    *   Sense 3: `notice%2:32:00::` - make or write a comment on (synonyms: comment, remark, point out). (e.g., commenting on a paper).
    *   Sense 4: `notice%2:39:00::` - notice or perceive (synonyms: mark, note). (e.g., noting someone was following her).

    *   The character "hadn't even noticed" the man sitting down.
    *   The next phrase is "he hadn't seen him sit down."
    *   This is about sensory perception (seeing/perceiving the presence of someone).
    *   Sense 1 (acknowledge) is about social recognition, not sensory perception.
    *   Sense 2 (detect/discover) is often used for finding something hidden or a fact, though it's close.
    *   Sense 3 (comment) is clearly wrong.
    *   Sense 4 (notice or perceive) fits best as it describes the act of becoming aware of something through the senses.

    *   Sense 2: "discover or determine the existence, presence, or fact of" (detect, observe, find).
    *   Sense 4: "notice or perceive" (mark, note).
    *   In the context "He hadn't even noticed... he hadn't seen him sit down," the focus is on the failure to perceive the action/presence.
    *   Looking at the examples for Sense 4: "She noted that someone was following her." This is very similar to "He hadn't noticed [that the man sat down]."
    *   Looking at the examples for Sense 2: "She detected high levels of lead..." This is more about detection/discovery of a fact or substance.

    *   Sense 4 is the most general "perceive" sense.
    *   Sense 2 is more about "detecting" or "finding."
    *   The context "hadn't seen him sit down" strongly aligns with "perceive."

    *   Sense 1: Acknowledge (Social) - No.
    *   Sense 2: Detect/Discover (Fact/Substance) - Possible, but less likely than 4.
    *   Sense 3: Comment - No.
    *   Sense 4: Perceive (Sensory) - Yes.

    *   The sentence is "he hadn't seen him sit down."
    *   This refers to the physical act of perceiving the person sitting down using his eyes.
    *   Sense 17: "perceive by sight or have the power to perceive by sight" (Example: "Can you see the bird in that tree?")
    *   Sense 6: "perceive or be contemporaneous with" (Synonyms: witness, find. Example: "You'll see a lot of cheating in this school")
    *   Sense 1: "observe as if with an eye" (Example: "The camera saw the burglary")

    *   Sense 17 is the most general sense of visual perception.
    *   Sense 6 ("witness") often implies seeing an event happen. "He hadn't seen him sit down" is essentially saying he didn't witness the action of sitting down.
    *   Let's look at Sense 17 again: "perceive by sight".
    *   Let's look at Sense 6 again: "perceive or be contemporaneous with" (witness).
    *   In the context "he hadn't seen him sit down", the focus is on the visual perception of the action.
    *   Comparing Sense 17 and Sense 6:
        *   Sense 17: "Can you see the bird in that tree?" (Static or general ability)
        *   Sense 6: "You'll see a lot of cheating in this school" (Witnessing an event/occurrence).
    *   "Seen him sit down" describes witnessing an event.

    *Wait*, let's re-evaluate Sense 17. "Perceive by sight" is the core meaning of seeing.
    Let's look at Sense 6 again: "perceive or be contemporaneous with" (witness).
    Example for Sense 6: "We found Republicans winning the offices".
    Example for Sense 17: "Can you see the bird in that tree?"

    Actually, "see [someone] [do something]" (perceive an action) is usually mapped to the basic visual perception sense (Sense 17) or the "witness" sense (Sense 6).

    Let's check if there's a better fit.
    Sense 1: "observe as if with an eye" (camera).
    Sense 9: "see or watch" (view a show).

    Looking at the WordNet hierarchy (though not provided, I can infer):
    Sense 17 is the most basic "perceive by sight".
    Sense 6 is "witness".

    In "he hadn't seen him sit down", he didn't visually perceive the action. This is the most basic use of "see".

    Let's double-check Sense 6: "perceive or be contemporaneous with" (witness).
    If I say "I saw him cross the street", am I witnessing it or just perceiving it by sight? Both. But "witness" often implies a certain level of observation of an event.

    Let's look at the examples again.
    Sense 17: "Can you see the bird in that tree?"
    Sense 6: "You'll see a lot of cheating in this school."

    "He hadn't seen him sit down" is very similar to "I saw him cross the street".
    Is "seeing someone sit down" more like "seeing a bird" (17) or "seeing cheating" (6)?
    It's seeing an action.

    Let's re-read Sense 17: "perceive by sight or have the power to perceive by sight".
    Let's re-read Sense 6: "perceive or be contemporaneous with" (witness).

    Actually, in many WSD datasets (like SemCor), "see [someone] [do something]" is often mapped to the basic visual perception sense.

    Let's look at the options again.
    Sense 17: perceive by sight.
    Sense 6: witness.

    If the person "hadn't seen him sit down", it means he didn't visually perceive the event.

    Let's compare:
    "I see the man" -> Sense 17.
    "I saw the man sit down" -> Sense 17 or 6?

    If Sense 6 is "witness", then "I saw the crime" or "I saw the accident" fits well. "I saw him sit down" is a very simple action.

    Let's look at Sense 17's example: "Can you see the bird in that tree?"
    Let's look at Sense 6's example: "You'll see a lot of cheating in this school."

    The "cheating" example is more about experiencing or witnessing a phenomenon over time or a specific event. "Sitting down" is a specific event.

    However, "perceive by sight" (17) is the most fundamental meaning.

    Let's search for "see someone do something" in WordNet.
    Usually, "see" in the sense of "perceive with the eyes" is the primary sense.

    Let's re-examine Sense 6: "perceive or be contemporaneous with". Synonyms: witness, find.
    Example: "We found Republicans winning the offices".

    Let's re-examine Sense 17: "perceive by sight or have the power to perceive by sight".
    Example: "Can you see the bird in that tree?"

    In the context "he hadn't seen him sit down", the character is talking about his lack of visual awareness of the person's movement. This is a direct application of visual perception.

    Is there any other sense?
    Sense 1: "observe as if with an eye" (camera). No.
    Sense 9: "see or watch" (view a show). No.

    Between 6 and 17:
    Sense 6 (witness) often implies being present at an event.
    Sense 17 (perceive by sight) is the act of seeing.

    "He hadn't seen him sit down" = He didn't visually perceive the action of him sitting down.

    Let's try to see if "witness" (6) is a better fit for "seeing an action".
    "I witnessed the accident" vs "I saw the accident".
    "I saw him sit down" vs "I witnessed him sit down".
    "Witnessed" sounds more formal and implies a certain role (a witness). "Saw" is just the visual perception.

    Therefore, Sense 17 is the most likely candidate.

    Wait, let me look at Sense 6 again. "perceive or be contemporaneous with".
    If I "see" a period of history, I am contemporaneous with it.
    If I "see" a lot of cheating, I am witnessing it.

    "He hadn't seen him sit down" is a very simple visual perception of a physical movement.

    Let's double-check the other senses one more time.
    Sense 23: "get to know or become aware of, usually accidentally" (learn).
    "I see that you have been promoted."
    This is more about realizing a fact than visually seeing an action.

    Sense 17 seems the most solid.

    Wait, let me look at Sense 6 again. "perceive or be contemporaneous with".
    If I say "I saw the empire fall", that's Sense 6.
    If I say "I saw the man sit down", that's just visual perception.

    Let's check Sense 17 again. "perceive by sight or have the power to perceive by sight".
    This covers both the ability to see and the act of seeing.

    Final check:
    Context: "He hadn't even noticed... he hadn't seen him sit down."
    This is clearly about visual perception.
    Sense 17: perceive by sight.
    Sense 6: witness.
    Sense 1: observe as if with an eye (camera).

    Sense 17 is the most general and fitting sense for "seeing" a physical action.

    *   The character (Haney) is surprised that he didn't notice the man sit down.
    *   The man is described as being "like a shadow" and making "as much noise as a shadow."
    *   This suggests a quality of being eerily quiet or stealthy, surpassing normal human capabilities of stealth, but not necessarily that the man *is* a supernatural entity (though it feels "weird").
    *   Comparing the two senses:
        *   Sense 1 (supernatural) often implies something truly paranormal or ghostly (eldritch, unearthly).
        *   Sense 2 (extraordinary/preternatural) implies something that exceeds the normal, often in a way that is strange or eerie, but not necessarily magical.

    *   "The man was uncanny, like a shadow..."
    *   The comparison to a shadow emphasizes the stealth and the unsettling nature of his presence.
    *   In many literary contexts, "uncanny" used this way refers to something that is strange or mysterious in an unsettling way, often crossing the line between the natural and the supernatural, or simply being "preternatural."
    *   Looking at the synonyms:
        *   Sense 1: eldritch, weird, unearthly.
        *   Sense 2: preternatural.
    *   "Preternatural" fits well here—something that seems beyond nature but isn't necessarily a ghost or a demon. The man is a human (Pete), but his ability to be silent is "uncanny."

    *   Sense 1 is more about the *source* being supernatural (e.g., "the three weird sisters").
    *   Sense 2 is more about the *quality* being extraordinary/surpassing the normal (e.g., "uncanny sense of direction").
    *   The man's stealth is an extraordinary quality. He isn't described as a ghost, just as someone who moves like a shadow.

    *   The context describes a man who is unnervingly quiet. This is a "preternatural" (Sense 2) quality rather than a "supernatural" (Sense 1) one, although the line is thin. However, "uncanny" in the sense of "eerie/strange/extraordinary" usually maps to the "surpassing the ordinary" definition when applied to a person's behavior or traits.

    *   Wait, let me re-read. "The man was uncanny, like a shadow, and made as much noise as a shadow."
    *   If he is *like* a shadow, he is being compared to something non-human to emphasize his stealth.
    *   Is this "supernatural" or "extraordinary"?
    *   Usually, "uncanny" meaning "weird/eerie" is Sense 1 in some dictionaries, but here Sense 1 is specifically "supernatural influences" and Sense 2 is "surpassing the ordinary."
    *   Being so quiet that you don't notice someone sit down is "surpassing the ordinary."

    *   Sense 1: supernatural, eldritch, weird, unearthly.
    *   Sense 2: extraordinary, preternatural.
    *   The man is a human being. His stealth is preternatural (Sense 2).

    *   Sense 1: "suggesting the operation of supernatural influences"
    *   Sense 2: "surpassing the ordinary or normal"
    *   The man's stealth surpasses the ordinary.

    *   Sense 1: eldritch screech, weird sisters. (Very supernatural).
    *   Sense 2: preternatural affability, uncanny sense of direction. (Extraordinary human traits).
    *   The man's stealth is an extraordinary human trait.

    *   Sense 2 is the better fit.

*   Target word: "shadow"
    *   Context: "The man was uncanny, like a shadow, and made as much noise as a shadow."
    *   Surrounding context: The man appeared suddenly ("hadn't even noticed... hadn't seen him sit down"), is described as "uncanny," and is silent ("made as much noise as a shadow").

    *   Sense 1: an inseparable companion (e.g., "mother's shadow"). (Doesn't fit "uncanny" or the sudden appearance).
    *   Sense 2: a premonition of something adverse. (Doesn't fit).
    *   Sense 3: a dominating and pervasive presence. (Doesn't fit).
    *   Sense 4: refuge from danger or observation. (Doesn't fit).
    *   Sense 5: a spy employed to follow someone. (While the man might be a spy, the comparison "like a shadow" and "made as much noise as a shadow" refers to his ghostly, silent, and uncanny nature, not his profession).
    *   Sense 6: an indication that something has been present (trace). (Doesn't fit).
    *   Sense 7: an unilluminated area (darkness). (Doesn't fit the "like a shadow" comparison to a person).
    *   Sense 8: shade within clear boundaries. (Doesn't fit).
    *   Sense 9: something existing in perception only (apparition, phantom, phantasm). (Fits "uncanny," "hadn't seen him sit down," and the general eerie vibe).

    *   The text says the man was "uncanny, like a shadow."
    *   He appeared without being noticed.
    *   He is silent.
    *   This strongly suggests a ghostly or phantom-like quality.
    *   Sense 9 (apparition, phantom) aligns perfectly with "uncanny" and the stealthy, almost non-existent physical presence described.

    *   Sense 1: Companion? No.
    *   Sense 5: Spy? Maybe in plot, but the *simile* "like a shadow" here emphasizes the ghostly quality.
    *   Sense 9: Apparition/Phantom? Yes.

    *   The phrase "made as much noise as a shadow" is a common idiom for being completely silent, often associated with ghosts or phantoms.
    *   "Uncanny" reinforces the supernatural/phantom sense.

    *   Let's look closer at Sense 12: "give rise to; cause to happen or occur". Noise is something that occurs.

    *   Sense 10: "create or manufacture a man-made product" (No).

    *   Sense 34: "make or cause to be or to become... make a mess".

    *   "Make noise" is a very common collocation. In WordNet, "make noise" often falls under "produce" or "cause to occur".
    *   Sense 12: "give rise to; cause to happen or occur... make a stir".
    *   Sense 34: "make or cause to be or to become... make a mess".
    *   Comparing "make a stir" (12) and "make a mess" (34), "make noise" is closer to "make a stir" (an occurrence/sound) than "make a mess" (a state of disorder).

    *   Sense 12: "give rise to; cause to happen or occur, not always intentionally" (synonyms: cause, do).
    *   Example: "make a stir".
    *   "Made as much noise as a shadow" means he caused/produced noise. This fits well with "cause to happen or occur".

    *   Sense 10: manufacture (No)
    *   Sense 18: construct (No)
    *   Sense 36: shaping (No)
    *   Sense 41: design (No)

    *   Sense 12: "give rise to; cause to happen or occur, not always intentionally"
    *   Sense 34: "make or cause to be or to become"
    *   "Make noise" is essentially "producing" a sound. "Cause to happen or occur" (12) fits "noise" (an event/occurrence) better than "cause to be or to become" (34).

    *   Sense 12: "give rise to; cause to happen or occur... make a stir"
    *   Sense 34: "make or cause to be or to become... make a mess"
    *   "Make noise" is very similar to "make a stir".

    *   Target: "made as much noise as a shadow"
    *   Sense 12: "give rise to; cause to happen or occur"
    *   This fits.

    *   Sense 1 is the most general definition of "sound of any kind."
    *   Sense 5 is specifically "disagreeable" or "lacking musical quality."
    *   Since the comparison is to a shadow (which makes *no* sound), the most appropriate sense is the general one: "sound of any kind."

    *   Sense 1: "sound of any kind" fits perfectly. "Made as much sound of any kind as a shadow" (i.e., none).

    *   Sense 1: indication something has been present (trace, vestige). (Incorrect)

    *   The phrase "made as much noise as a shadow" is a simile. Shadows are silent.
    *   The man is described as "uncanny, like a shadow."
    *   The context emphasizes the man's ghost-like, silent, and sudden appearance.
    *   Sense 3 (apparition, phantom, phantasm) captures the "uncanny" and "ghostly" quality of someone who appears without being noticed and makes no noise.

    *   Wait, is it just a literal shadow (darkness/absence of light)? No, the context says "like a shadow" and "as much noise as a shadow."
    *   Is it Sense 3 (apparition/phantom)? "The man was uncanny, like a shadow..." This suggests he is like a ghost.
    *   Let's re-evaluate Sense 5 (unilluminated area). A literal shadow makes no noise. But the description "uncanny" and the way he appeared suggests something more spectral.
    *   Looking at the options again:
        *   Sense 3: something existing in perception only (apparition, phantom).
        *   Sense 5: an unilluminated area.
    *   Usually, "silent as a shadow" refers to the physical property of a shadow (which is just light blockage), but in the context of "uncanny" and "hadn't seen him sit down," the comparison is to a ghostly figure.
    *   Let's check if there's a sense for "a dark shape" or "ghostly figure." Sense 3 is "apparition, phantom."
    *   If the man is "like a shadow," he is being compared to something that is barely there, silent, and perhaps spectral.

    *   "The man was uncanny, like a shadow, and made as much noise as a shadow."
    *   If he is "like a shadow," he is silent and elusive.
    *   Sense 3: apparition, phantom.
    *   Sense 5: unilluminated area.
    *   Comparing a person to a "shadow" in terms of noise and presence often leans towards the spectral/phantom meaning (Sense 3) when "uncanny" is used.

    *   Sense 3: apparition, phantom, phantasm.
    *   Sense 5: darkness, dark.
    *   A person isn't usually "like darkness" in terms of noise; they are "like a shadow" (the shape). While a shadow is an unilluminated area (Sense 5), the *metaphorical* use of a person being a "shadow" (especially an uncanny one) aligns better with a phantom or apparition (Sense 3).

    *   Wait, let me look at the senses again. Is there a sense for "a dark shape"?
    *   Sense 7: shade within clear boundaries.
    *   Sense 5: an unilluminated area.
    *   Sense 3: something existing in perception only (apparition, phantom).
    *   If the man is "uncanny" and "like a shadow," he is being compared to a ghost. A ghost is an apparition.

    *   "made as much noise as a shadow" -> Shadows are silent.
    *   "uncanny, like a shadow" -> Ghostly.
    *   Sense 3 fits the "uncanny" and "phantom" aspect best.

Target lemma: shrink
Target surface form: shrinking
Context:
His real grievance was Lolly. Toward the end of his fourth hairy highball, while he was moodily making wet rings on the table-top with the bottom of the glass, he became aware that he was not alone. He looked up with bloodshot eyes and beheld the stranger sitting across the table, smiling a secret smile at him, as if they were fellow conspirators. He hadn't even noticed -- what was his name? Pete? -- he hadn't seen him sit down. The man was uncanny, like a shadow, and made as much noise as a shadow. Haney felt like <t>shrinking</t> out of sight, but he was already trapped in the corner with the wiry, dark little man. He began to wish that he hadn't shouted that other evening when the truck bore down through the crossing.

    *   Meaning: Haney wants to disappear or pull away because he feels uncomfortable, intimidated, or trapped.

    *   Sense 1: `decrease in size, range, or extent` (e.g., earnings shrank, courage shrivelled).
    *   Sense 2: `wither, as with a loss of moisture` (e.g., fruit dried and shriveled).

    *   It's about the desire to withdraw or recoil from a situation/person.
    *   Sense 4 ("draw back, as with fear or pain") fits best. Synonyms like "cringe" or "recoil" align with the feeling of wanting to disappear or pull away when intimidated.

    *   Sense 4: "draw back, as with fear or pain" -> "Haney felt like shrinking out of sight" (drawing back/recoiling from the presence of the man).

    *   Is he caught in a physical trap (sense 1 or 3)? No.
    *   Is he in a confining or embarrassing position (sense 4)? Yes. He feels cornered, unable to easily escape the social interaction or the physical space because of the stranger's presence.

    *   Sense 1: Physical catching (food in teeth). Not applicable.
    *   Sense 2: Physical immobilization (pinned under a tree). Not applicable.

    *   The phrase "trapped in the corner" can be literal (physical space) or figurative (social/psychological). In this context, it's a mix, but it describes a confining position rather than being physically pinned or caught in a device. Sense 4 specifically mentions "confining or embarrassing position."

    *   Sense 4 is the best fit.

    *   1: (architecture) solid exterior angle of a building (quoin) - *Incorrect.*
    *   2: a place off to the side of an area (e.g., rightfield corner) - *Possible, but less specific than 8.*

    *   5: point where two lines meet - *Incorrect.*

    *   10: small concavity (recess) - *Incorrect.*
    *   11: remote area (corners of the world) - *Incorrect.*

    *   The phrase "trapped in the corner" can be literal or metaphorical.
    *   Literal: He is physically in a corner of the room/bar.
    *   Metaphorical: He is in a predicament (Sense 6).
    *   Looking at the text: "he was already trapped in the corner with the wiry, dark little man." The presence of the man *with* him in the corner strongly suggests a physical location. If it were purely metaphorical (Sense 6), it would usually be "trapped in a corner" or "in a tight corner," and the "with the man" part would be slightly awkward though not impossible. However, the setting (sitting at a table, feeling like shrinking out of sight) points toward a physical space.
    *   Comparing Sense 2 (place off to the side) and Sense 8 (interior angle formed by two walls). Sense 8 is more specific to the interior of a room, which fits the bar setting.

    *   Sense 8: "an interior angle formed by two meeting walls | synonyms=nook | examples=a piano was in one corner of the room"
    *   This fits perfectly with the physical setting of a bar/restaurant where someone might be sitting in a corner booth or table.

    *   Sense 6: "a predicament from which a skillful or graceful escape is impossible | synonyms=box | examples=his lying got him into a tight corner"
    *   While Haney feels trapped, the phrase "trapped in the corner with the wiry, dark little man" implies a shared physical space. If it were Sense 6, it would more likely be "trapped in a corner" (meaning a situation). The specific mention of the man being *in* the corner with him makes Sense 8 the stronger candidate.

    *   Sense 8 is the most precise fit for a physical corner inside a room.
