I should hope so, imagine a call to ford.

Customer: My car don't work.
Ford: Does it start?
Customer: No.
Ford: Does the starter motor whirr when you turn it over?
Customer: Turn it over? I'm not that strong!
Ford: I mean when you turn the key in the ignition
Customer: Ignition? Turn it over? Starter motor? I don't know all these
technical terms I just want to drive my car!
