Yes.

Sky's the limit. Unlike Sanskrit, where gender, declensions and other 
inflections tie certain words together is specific relationships, each 
Chinese character can be a world unto itsefl, so that how it is taken to 
relate to the words near it is determined each time by its neighbors 
(syntax). As the neighborhood changes...
