Forth is probably cheating considering it has no restrictions when naming symbols.

  : 4 5 ;
  2 2 + .

Did you try this? This won't work.

What you did will make inputting a 4 yield a 5, but it won't change the behaviour of outputting a 4. (And it will only turn an input 4 into a 5 if your interpreter checks for words before checking for numbers which is not universally the case).
