tone I read this word somewhere within the last week and was going to write it down but by the time I got around to doing so I could not find the article where it was mentioned. The word is rather long and I believe it begins with an "A". Unfortunately I have forgotten how it is spelled or even the sample sentence the author gave. Not much help am I?

The word you are looking for is "homograph." Homographs are words that are spelled the same but have different meanings and pronunciations based on their context.

Write a sentence using who who's and whose?

Who's to blame? "Who's" is a conjunction meaning "who is?" So, if you want to construct a sentence using "who's," try to say "who is" and see if the sentence still makes sense. Whose towel was left on the locker room's floor? "Whose" is the possessive of "who"; denoting ownership, e.g., whose towel, whose car, whose newspaper.
