Not necessarily, as a bribe is a man-made word to help others convey a meaning of a number of actions related to such, and has also developed a number of connotations and interpretations over 100's of years across 100's of languages, but,
A duck is one word that specifically names a specific number of species that have a specific number of anatomical features, and is not truly subject to much interpretation at all.
