	Refs:	"refrain" seems like an important word to include in the definition. I'm also suggesting "abstain" (which is in Genius WaEi). I also merged "hold back" into sense #1 -- or do you prefer to distinguish these senses? - to be temperate in; to restrain oneself from excessive ... - to refrain; to abstain; to hold back In that case, wouldn't it make more sense to have them as sense #1 and #2? (rather than have them separated by a dissimilar sense "to make notes" as #1 and #3)
