      Well no, not necessarily. Languages don’t necessary map 1:1, and conceptions change over time. What one generation calls a peach, and what a previous generation calls a peach, they might differ.

      Just like a peach, you may have to accept a little fuzz.

        there is sufficient context for that kind of head gymnastics. By looking at the picture, we can clearly see it’s peaches.

          I mean somewhat but I feel like you are trying to flatten things to fit how you want to under them. Language and human experience don’t necessarily meet modern experiences.
