Not the same thing. Green is not red. Only using two syllables in an
essay is a  conscious limit  or an accident. The absence of other words
of more than two syllables doesnt affect  the meaning of the essay.
There are a C6lot of possibilities,but only one green red here not here
possibilities.

Of course, this never comes up as a problem to me because I claim
nothing
"has a meaning", including green. But lemme ask: Suppose someone says,
"I
noticed that in Jones's essay there was not a single word of over two
syllables." Would you say the speaker has just cited part of "the
meaning of"
of
Jones's essay? Would you understand if someone else said, "No, that's
not part
of the essay's meaning." How would you decide which of you two is right?
