a homograph is a group (usually a pair) of words that are spelled the same way ,and may or may not be pronounced the same way ,although the difference in pronunciation is often just a cift in the accented syllable .

there is a whole class of homographs that end in -ate ,usually with one being a verb and the other being a noun or an adjective related to it . For example :

" Advocate " can be pronounced with a long "a" sound and mean "to speak or write in support of "

"Advocate " can also be pronounced with a short "a " sound and refer to a person who supports or pleads the cause of another.
