"Turkey" is also a country, and yet through a combination of context and capitalization, we don't seem to have any trouble telling whether that or the bird was intended. This seems like a non-problem.
You’d be surprised how quickly and frequently you are interpreting the correct definition of words in english just based on context.
Learning another language helped me realize this. I would, frustrated, complain about how two words sound the same or are spelled the same and my older wiser friend would simply point out examples in english that I have no problem with.
Anyways, unless you were confused yourself and you’re being modest about it, I wouldn’t be so quick to assume anybody else is having trouble grappling with the word here.
