Zug and anzug however...
Zug is the noun to "ziehen". Like the Lokomotive pulls the wagons and "anziehen" is the German verb for "to dress" and in that case you can "interpret" again a "pull" (like in pullover) and the noun to "anziehen" is "Anzug".
But yes it typically makes at least some sense but sometimes it's pretty abstract or doesn't work very well.
There's a lot of things you can ziehen though:
Anziehen, ausziehen, umziehen, wegziehen, verziehen, aufziehen, abziehen, erziehen, beziehen and probably a couple more I forgot.
Also, Bezug and Beziehung are two different words that can mean the same but usually don't.
Can I ziehen your wife?
In Hungarian, to pull a woman is in fact slang meaning to have sex with her.
