If you have in mind the namespaces you find in programming languages,
I would say no. In some language the meaning of "a:apple" and
"b:apple" (where "a" and "b" are namespaces) are completely unrelated
and can be set.

In Lojban, each word has a definite meaning which. Based on the
context my "lo plise" and your "lo plise" could refer to two different
apples but they are apples.
