Sure, but much ambiguity is trivially handled with a minimum amount of context. "Tomorrow I'm flying from Austin to Atlanta and I need to return the rental". (Is the rental (presumably car) to be returned to Austin or Atlanta? Almost always Austin, absent some unusual arrangement. And presumably to the Austin airport rental depot, unless context says it was another location. And presumably before the flight, with enough timeframe to transfer and checkin.)

(You meant inherent ambiguity in actual words, though.)
