Hey mate❤❤
☆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” are similar in pronunciation, but are different in spelling as well as in meaning.
☆ Sometimes the words may have the same spelling, such as “rose,” the past tense of rise, and “rose,” the flower.
☆ Mostly, however, they are spelled differently, such as:
●carrot
●caret
●carat
In literature, homophones are used extensively in poetry and prose to make rhythmic effects, and to put emphasis on something. They are also used to create a multiplicity of meanings in a written piece.
TYPES :
1.Homograph
2.Homonym
3.Heterograph
4.Oronym
5.Pseudo-homophone
