what are homonyms and homophones explain with suitable example

Greek homophone means "identical sound" and I It occurs when two or more words share a sound but have distinct meanings. They could have the same spelling or a different one. Homonyms are homophones that share the exact same spelling. "Same name" is what homonym signifies. Thus, they have the same pronunciation, the same spelling, but a different meaning.

Homonyms: Rose(Flower), Rose(past tense of word rise)      Bat(Animal), Bat (Baseball)         Fair (Festival), Fair (equal)             Homophones: Bear, bare  To,Too,Two

Hope this helps.

Hi!!!

Hope you are doing well.

Homonyms are words that are pronounced the same as each other. For example, "maid" and "made".

A homophone can be defined as a word that, when pronounced, seems similar to another word, but has a different spelling and meaning. For example, the words "bear" and "bare".

Hope you are clear now. Feel free to ask if you have any other queries. All The Best!!!

Hello Sunil

Homonyms are words that have different meanings but are pronounced the same or spelled the same. for example, trunk (meaning part of an elephant) and trunk (meaning a storage chest). bark (the sound a dog makes) and bark (the covering of a tree).

Homophones are words that sound the same but have different meanings, whether they’re spelled the same or not. There, their, and they’re are homophones. But so are  Maid and Made

Thanks
