what is interest meaning in homographs
Answers
Answer:
Put quite simply, 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 shift 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.
