yes it does. As each of us has a different way of expressing and showing love to another person, sometimes it matches what makes them feel loved, sometimes there is a mismatch. But yeah beyond just being a verb you cannot just say 'love" that or this person and everyone knows what it means.

What we typically do is give what we usually expect to receive or desire to. Sometimes it's not that way but a lot of the time it is. some people are encouragers, some are givers, others are caretakers, etc... each of us has a varied number of ways to give love to others

there isn't really a finite definition of it.
