Ms. Katja Driesel
Tutor della CommunityEver get tripped up by English? Check out this sentence:
"I wanted to go to the park, too, but two hours ago, it started raining." đ€Ż
To, too, and two are homophones: words that sound the same but have different meanings and spellings. Classic examples are your/you're and there/their/they're.
Here's a fun "aha" moment: Homophones have cousins called homographsâwords that are spelled the same but have different meanings! Think of the verb to lead (leed) a team vs. a pencil made of lead (led).
So, words can be twins by sound (homophones) or by spelling (homographs)!
Context is everything. What homophones always get you? Drop them in the comments! đ
