Think of the tools in a tool chest: There is || It has a hammer, a pair of pincers, a saw, a screw-driver, a ruler, a pot of glue, glue, nails and screws. – Different as the functions of these objects are, just as different || As different as the functions of these objects are the functions of words. (And there are similarities in the one case and in the other.)
