Yeah, either a woodworker or a botanist might have different definitions than "regular people". But "wood" is an everyday word. There are various things in my house -- trays or spoons or boxes or the like -- made of bamboo, but that I would refer to as "wood" simply because I never even looked closely enough to notice that technically it is bamboo (or maybe I have, but the distinction seems extremely minor in practice).
I've done a fair amount of woodworking, but I don't think I've ever worked with bamboo. But if I were to, I'd be a lot more attuned to the distinction.
