Homonyms for homophones...what about words that are pronounced as homophones with different words? Which do they become homonyms with? The only one i can think of (it might be the only one), which i got in trouble around 1st-4th grade (i don't remember exactly when) for mentioning in an English class project we had to do about homonyms: OUR / hour = [&wr=] vs. OUR / are / R = [ar] -Stephen (Steg) ___________________________________________________________________ Get the Internet just the way you want it.
