Answer:

"A homograph is a word that shares the same written form as another word but has a different meaning."

Explanation:

The word fly has quite a lot of meanings but the same spelling and can be only understood from the context it is used in or reference.

For Example:

FLY- 1) when used as a verb it means to move through the air with the help of wings.

She likes to fly kites.

2) when used as a noun it refers to a black insect with two wings i.e the common housefly (that we are all familiar with).

There is a fly buzzing around the room.

P.S.- I hope you found this answer helpful and that it has cleared your doubt  Try to do some exercises related to homographs that are available on the net or your textbook itself and see if you can guess the meaning of those words with similar spellings when used in a different context. That'll make the concept clear for you and you'll understand it better. Thankyou
