Target lemma: real
Target surface form: real
Context:
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 forgotten about him. In fact, he had only mentioned him on the spur of the moment. His <t>real</t> 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.

*   Target word: "real"
    *   Context: "His <t>real</t> grievance was Lolly."
    *   Surrounding context: The character has a "pet grievance" (which he's washing down with bourbon). He mentions the landlord, but then clarifies that the landlord wasn't the actual source of his grievance. "His real grievance was Lolly."

    *   Sense 1: "being or reflecting the essential or genuine character of something" (actual, genuine, literal). Example: "her actual motive".
    *   Sense 2: "no less than what is stated; worthy of the name". Example: "the real reason; real war".
    *   Sense 3: "capable of being treated as fact" (tangible). Example: "tangible evidence".
    *   Sense 4: "having substance or capable of being treated as fact; not imaginary" (substantial, material). Example: "the substantial world".
    *   Sense 5: "not to be taken lightly". Example: "real problems".
    *   Sense 6: "being or occurring in fact or actuality; having verified existence; not illusory" (existent). Example: "real objects".
    *   Sense 7: "(of property) fixed or immovable".
    *   Sense 8: "coinciding with reality" (veridical).
    *   Sense 9: "corrected for inflation".

    *   The sentence contrasts a mentioned grievance (the landlord) with the *actual* or *genuine* grievance (Lolly).
    *   "His real grievance was Lolly" means Lolly was the *actual* source of his grievance, as opposed to the one he might have just mentioned or the one that seemed apparent.
    *   Comparing Sense 1 and Sense 2:
        *   Sense 1: "being or reflecting the essential or genuine character of something" (synonyms: actual, genuine). Example: "her actual motive".
        *   Sense 2: "no less than what is stated; worthy of the name". Example: "the real reason".
    *   Wait, "the real reason" (Sense 2) is very close to "the real grievance".
    *   Let's look at Sense 1 again: "actual motive". "Real grievance" is very similar to "actual motive".
    *   Let's re-examine Sense 2: "no less than what is stated; worthy of the name". This often implies a level of intensity or authenticity (e.g., "a real challenge").
    *   Let's re-examine Sense 1: "being or reflecting the essential or genuine character of something". This fits the contrast between a superficial or mentioned grievance and the true/actual one.

    *   "His real grievance was Lolly."
    *   This is contrasting a perceived or mentioned grievance (the landlord) with the *actual* one.
    *   Sense 1: "actual, genuine". Example: "her actual motive".
    *   Sense 2: "no less than what is stated; worthy of the name". Example: "the real reason".
    *   Actually, "the real reason" in Sense 2 is often used in the same way as "the real grievance". Let's look closer.
    *   If I say "The real reason I'm here is...", I mean the *actual* reason.
    *   If I say "This is a real problem", I might mean it's a *serious* problem (Sense 5) or a *genuine* problem (Sense 2).
    *   Wait, Sense 1's example "her actual motive" is almost identical in structure and meaning to "his real grievance".

    *   Sense 1: actual, genuine. (Example: her actual motive)
    *   Sense 2: no less than what is stated; worthy of the name. (Example: the real reason)
    *   Wait, "the real reason" is listed under Sense 2. Let me re-read Sense 2's definition: "no less than what is stated; worthy of the name". This doesn't seem to fit "the real reason" as well as Sense 1's "actual motive" fits "real grievance".
    *   Let's check Sense 1 again: "being or reflecting the essential or genuine character of something".
    *   If the author says "His real grievance was Lolly," he means Lolly was the *actual* person he was aggrieved with, not the landlord. This is a matter of identity/fact (actual/genuine).

    *   Sense 1: actual, genuine.
    *   Sense 2: worthy of the name.
    *   Sense 3: tangible.
    *   Sense 4: substantial.
    *   Sense 5: serious.
    *   Sense 6: existent.
    *   In the context "His real grievance was Lolly," the word "real" is used to distinguish the true object of his grievance from a false or incidental one. This aligns best with "actual" or "genuine".

    *   Sense 1: "being or reflecting the essential or genuine character of something" (actual, genuine). Example: "her actual motive".
    *   Sense 2: "no less than what is stated; worthy of the name". Example: "the real reason".
    *   Wait, if "the real reason" is an example for Sense 2, why is "actual motive" an example for Sense 1? They are almost identical.
    *   Let's look at the definitions again.
    *   Sense 1: "essential or genuine character".
    *   Sense 2: "no less than what is stated; worthy of the name".
    *   "The real reason" (Sense 2) could mean "the reason that is truly the reason" (worthy of the name 'reason').
    *   "His real grievance" (the one that is actually his grievance) fits "actual motive" (Sense 1) very well.

    *   Sense 1: actual, genuine.
    *   Sense 2: worthy of the name.
    *   Sense 6: existent (not illusory).
    *   The contrast is between the landlord (mentioned on the spur of the moment) and Lolly (the actual source). This is a contrast of *actuality* or *genuineness*.

    *   Sense 1: "being or reflecting the essential or genuine character of something" (actual, genuine).
    *   Sense 2: "no less than what is stated; worthy of the name".
    *   If I say "He is a real man," that's Sense 2 (worthy of the name).
    *   If I say "The real reason is...", it could be Sense 1 (the actual reason) or Sense 2 (the reason that is truly a reason).
    *   However, "actual motive" (Sense 1) is a very strong parallel to "real grievance".

    *   Sense 1: actual, genuine.
    *   Sense 2: worthy of the name.
    *   Sense 3: tangible.
    *   Sense 4: substantial.
    *   Sense 5: serious.
    *   Sense 6: existent.
    *   The most fitting is Sense 1.

    *   Candidate Senses:
        1.  `grievance%1:10:00`: a complaint about a (real or imaginary) wrong that causes resentment and is grounds for action.

    *   It's not a formal legal allegation (eliminates sense 3).
    *   Is it a "complaint... grounds for action" (sense 1) or a "resentment strong enough to justify retaliation/grudge" (sense 2)?
    *   The phrase "washing down his pet grievance with bourbon" and the moodiness suggest a personal grudge or deep-seated resentment rather than a formal complaint seeking a specific action or resolution. "Pet grievance" often aligns with a "grudge."

    *   Sense 1: "a complaint... grounds for action." (More like a formal grievance in a workplace or a specific complaint).
    *   Sense 2: "a resentment strong enough to justify retaliation" (synonyms: grudge, score).
    *   The context "pet grievance" and the mood (drinking alone, moodily) strongly point toward a personal grudge/resentment (Sense 2).

    *   Sense 1 is often used for formal complaints (e.g., labor grievances).
    *   Sense 2 is for personal grudges.
    *   The character's "real grievance was Lolly" fits the "grudge" definition perfectly.

    *   Sense 1: Complaint/grounds for action.
    *   Sense 2: Resentment/grudge.
    *   Sense 3: Legal allegation.
    *   The context is personal and emotional, not formal or legal. Sense 2 is the best fit.

    *   "Toward the end of his fourth hairy highball"
    *   Is a "highball" (the drink) an event, a point in time, or a section?
    *   Drinking the highball is the event. The "end of the highball" is a common shorthand for "the end of the process of drinking the highball."
    *   Sense 4 refers to a "point in time."
    *   Sense 11 refers to "concluding parts of an event or occurrence."
    *   Sense 12 refers to a "final part or section."

    Let's re-evaluate:
    "Toward the end of his fourth hairy highball"
    If we treat the highball as the object being consumed, the "end" is the final part of the liquid (Sense 12) or the final stage of the process of drinking it (Sense 11).
    However, "the end of [something]" often refers to the point in time (Sense 4).

    Let's look at the examples:
    Sense 4: "the end of the year" (point in time)
    Sense 11: "the end was exciting" (concluding parts of an event)
    Sense 12: "end of the section" (final part or section)

    In "the end of his fourth hairy highball," the "highball" is the object. The "end" of the drink is the final portion of it.
    Wait, "toward the end of [something]" usually means as it was coming to a close.
    If I say "toward the end of the movie," it's Sense 11 (concluding parts of an event).
    If I say "toward the end of the book," it's Sense 12 (final part or section).
    If I say "toward the end of the year," it's Sense 4 (point in time).

    Is drinking a highball an event? Yes.
    Is the highball itself a section? No.
    Is it a point in time? No, the "end" is the point in time, but the "highball" is not.

    Let's compare Sense 4 and Sense 11 again.
    Sense 4: "the point in time at which something ends"
    Sense 11: "the concluding parts of an event or occurrence"

    "Toward the end of his fourth hairy highball" -> As he was finishing the drink.
    This feels like the concluding part of the process of drinking.

    Let's check Sense 12: "a final part or section". If the highball is viewed as a quantity of liquid, the "end" is the final part of that liquid.

    Let's look at other examples of "the end of the [drink]":
    "At the end of the bottle" usually means the last bit of liquid (Sense 12).
    "Toward the end of the meal" usually means the concluding part of the event (Sense 11).

    In this context, "Toward the end of his fourth hairy highball" likely means as he was finishing the drink. This is more of a temporal progression through an event (drinking the drink) than a physical section of the liquid.

    Wait, let's look at Sense 4 again: "the point in time at which something ends".
    "The end of the year" is a point in time.
    "The end of the highball" (meaning the point in time when the highball was finished).

    Let's re-read Sense 11: "the concluding parts of an event or occurrence".
    Drinking a highball is an occurrence. The "end" would be the concluding parts of that occurrence.

    Let's re-read Sense 12: "a final part or section".
    If the highball is the object, the end is the final part of it.

    Comparing "end of the year" (4) and "end of the movie" (11).
    "The end of the year" is a specific point in time.
    "The end of the movie" is the final part of the movie.

    "Toward the end of his fourth hairy highball" sounds more like "as he was finishing it" (the concluding part of the process).

    Let's look at the options again.
    4: point in time at which something ends.
    11: concluding parts of an event or occurrence.
    12: final part or section.

    If I say "the end of the drink," I usually mean the last bit of liquid (Sense 12).
    If I say "toward the end of the drink," I usually mean as I was finishing it (Sense 11).

    Let's double-check Sense 11 examples: "the end was exciting; I had to miss the last of the movie".
    Let's double-check Sense 12 examples: "at the end of the section... go on until you come to the end".

    Actually, "the end of the year" (Sense 4) is very similar to "the end of the highball" if we mean the point in time. But "toward the end" suggests a duration (the concluding parts), which fits Sense 11 better.

    Wait, let's look at Sense 11 again: "the concluding parts of an event or occurrence".
    Is "his fourth hairy highball" an event or occurrence?
    Strictly speaking, the highball is the drink (the object). The *drinking* of the highball is the event.
    However, in English, we often use the object to represent the event (metonymy). "The end of the movie" (the movie is the object, but we mean the event of watching it).

    If we don't use metonymy, "the end of the highball" would be the final part of the liquid (Sense 12).

    Let's think: "Toward the end of the book" (Sense 12 - final part/section).
    "Toward the end of the movie" (Sense 11 - concluding parts of an event).
    "Toward the end of the drink" (Sense 12 - final part of the liquid).

    Wait, if I'm drinking a highball, and I'm "toward the end" of it, I'm consuming the final part of the liquid.

    Let's re-examine Sense 11: "concluding parts of an event or occurrence".
    Let's re-examine Sense 12: "a final part or section".

    If the highball is the object, the "end" is the final part of that object.
    If the highball is the event, the "end" is the concluding part of that event.

    Usually, "the end of the [drink]" refers to the last bit of the drink.
    Example: "I always save the best for the end of the drink." (Sense 12)
    Example: "Toward the end of the drink, he started to feel dizzy." (Sense 11 or 12)

    Let's look at the context again: "Toward the end of his fourth hairy highball, while he was moodily making wet rings on the table-top... he became aware that he was not alone."
    This describes a period of time during which he was finishing the drink. This points toward Sense 11 (concluding parts of an event).

    Wait, let me look at Sense 4 again: "the point in time at which something ends".
    "Toward the end of the year" (Sense 4).
    "Toward the end of the highball" (Sense 4).

    This is tricky. Let's compare 4, 11, and 12.
    4: point in time (the end of the year)
    11: concluding parts of an event (the end of the movie)
    12: final part or section (the end of the section)

    "Toward the end of the year" is a common phrase. "Toward the end of the movie" is also common.
    If "the end of the year" is Sense 4, then "toward the end of the year" means "approaching the point in time at which the year ends."
    If "the end of the movie" is Sense 11, then "toward the end of the movie" means "during the concluding parts of the movie."

    Is "his fourth hairy highball" more like "the year" (a period of time) or "the movie" (an event/occurrence)?
    A highball is an object, but the process of drinking it is an event.
    If we treat "his fourth hairy highball" as the event of drinking it, then Sense 11 fits.
    If we treat it as the object, Sense 12 fits.
    If we treat it as a period of time, Sense 4 fits.

    Let's look at the examples for Sense 11 again: "the end was exciting; I had to miss the last of the movie".
    Let's look at the examples for Sense 12 again: "we have given it at the end of the section... go on until you come to the end".

    "Toward the end of his fourth hairy highball" sounds like "during the final part of the process of drinking it." This is very similar to "the end of the movie."

    Let's double-check Sense 4: "the point in time at which something ends".
    If the "end" is a *point* in time, you can't really be "toward" it in the sense of being *in* it, but you can be approaching it.

    Wait, "the end of the year" (Sense 4) is a point in time. "Toward the end of the year" means "as the year was coming to a close."
    "The end of the movie" (Sense 11) is the concluding part. "Toward the end of the movie" means "during the concluding part."

    Is drinking a highball more like a year or a movie?
    A year is a time period. A movie is an event. Drinking a drink is an event.

    Let's consider Sense 12 again: "a final part or section".
    If the highball is the object, the "end" is the final part of the liquid.
    "Toward the end of the drink" = "as he was drinking the final part of the liquid."

    This is a very fine distinction. Let's look at the synonyms.
    Sense 4: ending
    Sense 11: last, final stage
    Sense 12: (no synonyms)

    "Final stage" (Sense 11) fits "drinking the highball" quite well.

    Let's re-read: "Toward the end of his fourth hairy highball, while he was moodily making wet rings on the table-top... he became aware that he was not alone."
    The "end" here is the final stage of the process of drinking the highball.

    Let's compare Sense 11 and Sense 12 one more time.
    Sense 11: concluding parts of an event or occurrence.
    Sense 12: a final part or section.

    If I say "the end of the book," it's Sense 12.
    If I say "the end of the movie," it's Sense 11.
    If I say "the end of the drink," is it more like a book (a physical thing with a final section) or a movie (an event with a concluding part)?
    A drink is a physical thing, but the act of drinking it is an event.

    However, "the end of the movie" is also a physical thing (the film strip), but we mean the event.
    "The end of the book" is a physical thing, and we often mean the final section of the text.

    In "toward the end of his fourth hairy highball," the focus is on the time passing as he drinks. This makes it an event.

    Let's check Sense 4 again. "the point in time at which something ends".
    If "the end of the year" is the example, then "the end of the highball" could be the point in time when it's finished. "Toward the end" would then mean "approaching that point in time."

    Wait, let's look at the WordNet senses for "end" again.
    Sense 4: end%1:28:00 (point in time)
    Sense 11: end%1:11:00 (concluding parts of an event)
    Sense 12: end%1:09:00 (final part or section)

    Let's search for "toward the end of the" in a corpus.
    "Toward the end of the movie" -> Sense 11
    "Toward the end of the year" -> Sense 4
    "Toward the end of the book" -> Sense 12
    "Toward the end of the meeting" -> Sense 11

    Is "his fourth hairy highball" more like a movie/meeting (event) or a year (time period) or a book (sectioned object)?
    It's an event (the act of drinking).

    Let's double-check Sense 11: "the concluding parts of an event or occurrence".
    This seems the most fitting.

    Wait, let me think about Sense 12 again. "a final part or section".
    If you are drinking a glass of wine, the "end of the wine" is the last bit of liquid in the glass.
    "Toward the end of the wine" = "as he was drinking the last bit of liquid."
    This is also very plausible.

    Let's compare:
    Sense 11: concluding parts of an event (the act of drinking)
    Sense 12: final part of a section (the liquid itself)

    In the sentence, "Toward the end of his fourth hairy highball, while he was moodily making wet rings on the table-top...", the "end" is the time during which he is finishing the drink. This points more toward the event (Sense 11) than the physical liquid (Sense 12).

    Let's re-verify Sense 4: "the point in time at which something ends".
    If "the end of the year" is the example, "toward the end of the year" means "as the year was coming to a close."
    This is also very similar.

    Let's look at the difference between 4 and 11 again.
    4: point in time (the end of the year)
    11: concluding parts of an event (the end of the movie)

    A year is a period of time. A movie is an event.
    Is "his fourth hairy highball" a period of time or an event?
    It's an object, but it's being used to represent the event of drinking it.
    Drinking a highball is an event.

    Therefore, Sense 11 seems more appropriate than Sense 4.

    Now, Sense 11 vs Sense 12.
    11: concluding parts of an event (the act of drinking)
    12: final part or section (the liquid)

    "Toward the end of the movie" (Sense 11)
    "Toward the end of the book" (Sense 12)
    "Toward the end of the drink" (???)

    If I say "the end of the book," I'm referring to the final chapters.
    If I say "the end of the drink," I'm referring to the final sips.
    The final sips are the "final part" of the liquid.

    Wait, let's look at Sense 11's example: "I had to miss the last of the movie".
    "The last of the movie" is the concluding part of the event.
    "The last of the drink" is the concluding part of the liquid.

    This is very subtle. Let's think about "toward the end of".
    "Toward the end of the movie" = during the final part of the movie.
    "Toward the end of the drink" = during the final part of the

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. 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 <t>end</t> 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.

    Let's compare "end of the movie" (11) and "end of the year" (4).
    "Toward the end of the movie" = during the final part.
    "Toward the end of the year" = during the final part of the year.
    Wait, "the end of the year" is listed under Sense 4.
    "The end was exciting" is listed under Sense 11.

    Let's re-read Sense 4: "the point in time at which something ends".
    Let's re-read Sense 11: "the concluding parts of an event or occurrence".

    "Toward the end of his fourth hairy highball" means as he was finishing it. This is a duration (the concluding parts), not a single point in time.

    Wait, let's look at Sense 12 again: "a final part or section".
    Example: "Start at the beginning and go on until you come to the end".
    If the "highball" is treated as a physical quantity of liquid, "the end of the highball" could be the final part of the liquid.

    Let's re-evaluate:
    - Event: Drinking the highball. (Sense 11)
    - Object: The highball (the liquid). (Sense 12)
    - Time: The time it took to drink it. (Sense 4)

    In "Toward the end of his fourth hairy highball", "highball" usually refers to the drink itself. "The end of the drink" usually means the last bit of the liquid.

    Let's check Sense 12 again: "a final part or section".
    Example: "we have given it at the end of the section".
    Example: "Start at the beginning and go on until you come to the end".

    Let's check Sense 11 again: "the concluding parts of an event or occurrence".
    Example: "the end was exciting".

    If you are "toward the end of your drink", you are consuming the last part of the liquid. This is a physical part of the object.

    Wait, let's look at Sense 14: "either extremity of something that has length". (No)
    Sense 8: "the surface at either extremity of a three-dimensional object". (No)

    Let's reconsider Sense 11 vs 12.
    Sense 11: concluding parts of an event.
    Sense 12: final part or section.

    Is "drinking a highball" the event, or is the "highball" the object?
    "Toward the end of his fourth hairy highball"
    If it were "Toward the end of the movie", it's Sense 11.
    If it were "Toward the end of the book", it's Sense 12.
    A drink is more like a book (a thing you consume from start to finish) than a movie (an event you watch).

    Wait, let's look at Sense 4 again: "the point in time at which something ends".
    "The end of the year" is the example. The year is a period of time.
    Is a "highball" a period of time? No.

    So it's between 11 and 12.
    Sense 11: concluding parts of an event or occurrence.
    Sense 12: a final part or section.

    If I say "I'm at the end of my rope", that's different.
    If I say "I'm at the end of my drink", I mean I've almost finished the liquid.
    The liquid is a physical thing. The final part of the liquid is a "final part or section".

    Let's double-check Sense 11: "the concluding parts of an event or occurrence".
    Is "his fourth hairy highball" an event? No, it's a drink.
    Is "drinking his fourth hairy highball" an event? Yes.
    But the sentence says "end of his... highball", not "end of drinking his... highball".

    Therefore, "highball" is the object, and "end" is the final part of that object.

    Sense 12: "a final part or section".
    Example: "Start at the beginning and go on until you come to the end". (This fits the consumption of a drink).

    Let's check Sense 11 again. "the end was exciting". This refers to the conclusion of a story or event.

    Let's check Sense 4 again. "the end of the year". A year is a time period.

    Comparing "end of the year" (4), "end of the movie" (11), and "end of the section" (12).
    A highball (the drink) is most similar to a "section" or a "book" in that it's a finite amount of something you go through.

    Wait, let me think about "the end of the drink" again.
    If I say "at the end of the meal", is that Sense 11 (event) or Sense 12 (section)? A meal is an event.
    If I say "at the end of the drink", is the drink an event or an object?
    A highball is a drink (the liquid in the glass).

    Let's look at the options one more time.
    11. concluding parts of an event or occurrence.
    12. a final part or section.

    If "highball" is the object, Sense 12 is better.
    If "highball" is shorthand for "the process of drinking the highball", Sense 11 is better.

    In common usage, "the end of the [drink]" refers to the last bit of the liquid.
    "Toward the end of his fourth hairy highball" = as he was finishing the liquid.

    Let's re-verify Sense 12: "a final part or section".
    Example: "Start at the beginning and go on until you come to the end".
    This fits perfectly. You start at the beginning of the drink and go until you come to the end.

    Let's re-verify Sense 11: "the concluding parts of an event or occurrence".
    Example: "the end was exciting".
    This doesn't fit as well because a highball is not an event.

    Let's re-verify Sense 4: "the point in time at which something ends".
    Example: "the end of the year".
    A highball is not a time period.

    Final check:
    Sense 12: a final part or section.
    Sense 11: concluding parts of an event or occurrence.
    Sense 4: point in time.

    "Toward the end of his fourth hairy highball"
    The "highball" is the object being consumed. The "end" is the final part of that object.

    Wait, let me search for "end of the drink" in a corpus or dictionary.
    Usually, "the end of the [something you consume]" is treated as the final part of that thing.

    Let's consider if "highball" could be an event.
    "He was enjoying the weekly ritual... Toward the end of his fourth hairy highball..."
    The ritual is the event. The highball is the object.

    Therefore, Sense 12 seems the most accurate.

    Wait, let me look at Sense 11 again. "the concluding parts of an event or occurrence".
    Is "his fourth hairy highball" an occurrence?
    In some contexts, "a drink" can mean "the act of drinking".
    "I'm having a drink." (The act of drinking).
    If "highball" means "the act of drinking a highball", then it's an occurrence.

    However, "fourth hairy highball" strongly suggests the drink itself (the object), as you count the drinks, not the acts of drinking.

    Let's compare:
    "Toward the end of the movie" (Event - Sense 11)
    "Toward the end of the book" (Object - Sense 12)
    "Toward the end of the drink" (Object - Sense 12)

    This seems consistent.

    Wait, let me double-check Sense 4 one more time.
    "the point in time at which something ends"
    "the end of the year"
    If "the end of the highball" means "the time when the highball was finished", it could be Sense 4.
    But "Toward the end" suggests a period of time (the final part), not a single point.

    Sense 11: "the concluding parts of an event or occurrence".
    Sense 12: "a final part or section".

    If I say "Toward the end of the movie", I mean during the final part of the movie.
    If I say "Toward the end of the drink", I mean during the final part of the drink.

    Is a movie an event or a section? A movie is an event.
    Is a drink an event or a section? A drink is an object.

    So Sense 12 is the most likely.

    Let me just check if there's any other sense.
    Sense 14: "either extremity of something that has length". (No, a drink doesn't have length in that way).
    Sense 13: "a boundary marking the extremities of something". (No).

    Let's re-read Sense 12: "a final part or section".
    Example: "Start at the beginning and go on until you come to the end".
    This is very similar to consuming a drink.

    Let's re-read Sense 11: "the concluding parts of an event or occurrence".
    Example: "the end was exciting".

    One more look at Sense 4: "the point in time at which something ends".
    Example: "the end of the year".

    If "the end of the highball" means "the time when he finished the highball", then "toward the end" would mean "approaching that point in time".

    Let's think about "the end of the movie" again. Is that Sense 11 or Sense 4?
    Sense 11: "the concluding parts of an event or occurrence".
    Sense 4: "the point in time at which something ends".
    "The end of the movie" can be both. The final scene (Sense 11) or the moment the credits roll (Sense 4).
    "Toward the end of the movie" usually means during the final scenes (Sense 11).

    So, "Toward the end of his fourth hairy highball" means during the final part of the drink.
    If the drink is an object, it's Sense 12.
    If the drink is an event, it's Sense 11.

    A "highball" is a type of drink (the object).
    "His fourth hairy highball" refers to the fourth drink he had.
    The "end" of that drink is the last part of the liquid.

    Therefore, Sense 12.

    *   Sense 20: "make or cause to be or to become" (create a mess).
    *   The action of putting a wet glass on a table "creates" or "makes" a ring. This fits the "make a mess" example perfectly.

Target lemma: aware
Target surface form: aware
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. 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 <t>aware</t> 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.

    *   Sense 1 focuses on knowledge, realization, or perception (e.g., "became aware of her surroundings").
    *   Sense 2 focuses on being mindful or attentive (e.g., "mindful of his responsibilities").

    *   "Became aware that he was not alone" fits perfectly with "realization or perception" (Sense 1).
    *   It does not fit "bearing in mind" or "attentive to" (Sense 2), as it's a moment of discovery, not a state of ongoing mindfulness.

    *   Sense 1 is the correct fit.

    *   Candidate senses:
        1.  `stranger%1:18:01::`: an individual that one is not acquainted with.
        2.  `stranger%1:18:00::`: anyone who does not belong in the environment in which they are found (synonyms: alien, unknown).

    *   The narrator describes a person sitting across the table.
    *   The narrator is trying to remember the person's name ("what was his name? Pete?").
    *   This implies a lack of acquaintance or a failure to recognize/remember the person, rather than the person being an "alien" or someone who "does not belong in the environment".
    *   The context is a social setting (likely a bar or lounge, given the "highball" and "table-top").
    *   The person is a "stranger" because the protagonist doesn't know him (or doesn't remember him), fitting the definition of "an individual that one is not acquainted with".

    *   Sense 1: "an individual that one is not acquainted with" - Fits perfectly.
    *   Sense 2: "anyone who does not belong in the environment in which they are found" - This usually refers to an intruder or someone out of place (like an alien or a foreigner in a specific social circle), which doesn't fit as well as the simple lack of acquaintance.

    *   The best fit is sense 1.
