One word can have multiple meanings. The word meaning might change according to the part of speech. One word may mean “X” when used as a noun and “Y” when used as a verb. At times even when one word is used as only a noun, verb or adjective, it may have different meanings. For example, the word “reckon” only as a verb has more than one meaning and usage. One meaning is “to count or calculate”, another meaning is “to consider” and the informal meaning of the word is “to assume”. This is just one example of a word with multiple meanings.

Also, the usage of a word changes with the plurality or singularity of the term. A common noun may also be turned into a proper noun. For example, a word like, “Providence” is used as a common noun which means “God” or “the divine power” but, it is turned into a proper noun, once it is used to indicate a port in Rhode Island. These are just examples of how a word might be used in two or many ways in the English language.

Element is a word in the English Language, that means a component or factor. It is used in the field of science and mathematics, mostly in Chemistry as a part of a set, for example, “oxygen is an element of the periodic table.” But, it is also used as a proper noun, indicating the name of a brand.
