In French if something isn’t functioning properly you say that “il ne marche pas.” Now, in my studies, “marche” means “walk.” So to me that says “it doesn’t walk.” I asked a native speaker about that and they told me, no, that is not what that means.
I’m English Canadian with a lot of French Canadian family and friends … I don’t speak French but I’ve been around it all my life … here’s one for you …
English is not the only language with homonyms.
