The 4 synonyms for note

Interchangeable with note, one per sense

Audited under note's own entry, so the meaning quoted is the one note carries in that sense.

  • tonenoun, in the sense "a notation representing the pitch and duration of a musical sound"
  • observeverb, in the sense "observe with care or pay close attention to"

Recorded from the other side of the pair

  • eminenceeminence is a noun in the sense "high status importance owing to marked superiority"

two of these come from note's own entries in the bank, and two were audited from the other word's side of the pair. Both directions were read by a human, and only the sense quoted differs.
