Homonyms are words that are spelled and pronounced the same, but have different meanings. Arms, bank, can, duck, exact, flat, groom, hood, iron, jam, kind, letter, mole, nail, order, pound, quarry, right, seal, tie, wave, and yard are all examples of homonyms. In contrast, homophones are only pronounced the same but spelled differently, and homographs are spelled the same, but pronounced differently.

Can you give me 20 homonyms with opposite spelling?

Although "homonyms" are sometimes defined as sounding OR spelling the same, the precise definition requires both. (Sound alikes are "homophones".) Homonyms have different MEANINGS, normally as differing parts of speech (i.e. verb-noun, adjective-noun). Heteronyms are spelled alike but have different sounds and meanings. Examples of homonyms :Bear (animal or carry) / Left (direction or not taken) / Cast (to mold or a splint) Examples of homophones : bye-buy, see-sea, ate-eight, threw-through, to-too-two. Examples of heteronyms : dove (bird, did dive) wind (air, to crank) close (near, to shut)
