But sometimes context just isn't enough. Like that time fantasy writers all learned the word "lambent" and started applying it, of all things, to eyes.
(It means "flickering or gleaming, like a candle". But if you don't set that up properly in the text I guarantee your readers will all think you're talking about sheep.)
