'double' as in english, 'entendre' depends on whether you want it to 
sound like the French word it is or just good enough that everybody else

be a rough approximation (apologies to the French).

Can be, but definitely not the most common context! If you look at the 
brief etymologies on Wikipedia you'll be unsurprised to learn that both 
meanings are named for Plato.
