The word VEIN can mean:

  • A blood vessel in animals and humans that returns blood to the heart
  • Similarly shaped vessels appearing in plant leaves and insect wings
  • An extension of metal ore through the surrounding rock
  • A pervading theme or subject, as in literature

The homphones are VAIN (proud or egotistic) and VANE (a weathervane, windmill arm, or bomb fin).
