Yes, but not if you are referring to moving air. It has a different meaning, as in " I am going to wind the new fishing line on the reel"

Hola William,
The word wind can be pronounced in two ways:
(1) Wind is pronounced [wInd] as a noun, i.e. there will be a strong wind blowing tonight.
It's also pronounced [wInd] as an adjective, i.e. his imagination is short-winded.
(2) It's pronounced [wahynd] as a verb, i.e. the river winds through the city.
Hope they help,
Terecia

It will be a different word. The root word of reWIND which means to encircle something (verb).

No. It is pronounced the same way as in mit or kit or lick. Not like rewind. I hope that helps
