Of course - but there are other elements to take into account aswell.
For instance - I don't know about the rest of you but I can't remember the last time I used or heard 'row' (argument) in a sentence?
"12.. There was a row among the oarsmen about how to row."
Personally I read that straight away as row (row of tables). But having read the sentence see that row 'argument' is what fits. However if you heard someone say this sentence it would be a whole different story due to the pronunciation.
Row is an ugly word when you look at it isnt' it?.
English is an enormous language and there are many words that are rarely or by certain demographics(not taking into consideration slang here that's another topic).
re Peaches - I actually hadn't read all the posts before replying. Probably should have worded "Anyone who..". But at the same time I don't believe you
