Hi,
Yes, it’s a way to express.
But in the definition, any expression with to need or a need have an ellipsis to add in the mind.
The definition determines that “need” is a matrix in which something can be developed or formed.
Response to your example;
I need a dollar. ------I need a dollar (for paying the car).
I have a need for a dollar. ----

Hi,
Everything a person says comes from some idea in his or her mind. But they do not always have to express the idea fully, and the listener does not always have to understand fully what the idea is.

In such a way so as to get into the mentality gate of English.
