Words Seldom Seen: Homonym

Homonym

Noun: Words that have the same spelling or pronunciation but different meanings.

Example one: “A pair of pears.”

Example two: “The hot (stolen) jewelry looked hot (very nice) in the hot (temperature) sun.”

One of the most commonly mistaken homonyms is: there, they’re and their.
