My language doesn't have a word for "kindling". If you want to translate it, you would use something like "material used to start the fire". So, by you reasoning, for someone from my country to be fluent in English, they also have to know that concept of "kindling" exists and has a name?
Thinking about it, I can't say I disagree. You have to know about the way people reason about stuff, not just words to name them.
