Overloaded expression

In .

In human linguistics, the meaning of a word in a sentence is only clear by its context and usage.

For example:

He saw the wood!

In this case, the word saw is an overloaded expression meaning the past tense of to see and is not intended to mean the wood cutting tool . However, in this case, it is not clear if that is what is meant without context. Instances such as this are extremely difficult for Machine_translation to decipher, resulting in some common errors.
