5.  to think about good memories; to think about good things from the past I could not sleep last night. I just laid in bed awake reminiscing about my childhood. I met my friends tonight, who I had not seen in a long time, and we reminisced about high school. Sometimes I just sit and reminisce about all the fun I had with my parents when we traveled to New York.

6.  to express pleasure to (a person), as on a happy occasion I heard you graduated from college. I just wanted to call and congratulate you! That’s really great you helped to win the basketball game. Congratulations! I thought we should do something to congratulate everyone who got a high score on the CET-6 exam. I’m so happy you had a baby! Congratulations!

7.  money given for a specific purpose  money given on a regular basis When I was a kid, my parents gave me an allowance of 3 dollars every week. When I went to Atlanta for a business meeting, my boss gave me an allowance of 50 dollars a day for food. I wish I could go to see the Sex and the City movie, but I already spent my allowance for this week. The allowances they gave us traveling to Beijing were not enough. We ran out of money the first day.

8.  someone who fails at everything, or does not try to succeed; a very lazy person All he does is sit around all day watching TV. That guy is a real loser.

9.  to do someone a big favor; to help someone do something very difficult You saved my life when I was drowning. You really did me a solid!
