In Polish, “ręka” can mean both arm and hand and which one it is is context dependent

Kinda same in Slovenian. You don’t shake hands, you shake arms. Anything you do with your hands is done with your arms. The word for hand is not used that often.

Well, there’s “dłoń” for hand. “Ręka” means the whole arm, including the hand, I assume.
