Yeah I agree with you. I think there are some ancient words that were created by certain people in the past for a precise purpose, but it's letterally impossible that they have expected every amazing combination also with modern words, so I think that the brain takes part in this work.
Here is some expample of words created on purpose at least in italian (according to me)
(ENG=ITA)
Christ = Cristo        Truth = Verità     (In the bible: "Christ is Truth")

Man = Uomo      God = Dio   (In the bible: God said: "Let us make man in our image and likeness")

World = Mondo    Dream = Sogno    (There is the expression that the World is just a dream)

Land = Terra        Sky = Cielo   (The sky is at the top instead the land is at the bottom, so they are oppsites like the positions of their numbers)

Maybe you should dowload the images to see better :)
