Thinking About Homographs
Homographs are delightful.
Spelled exactly alike
But totally different meanings
Words like Boil
Dolly cart or dolly doll?
Blue – a feeling or a color?
Crest.
A toothpaste? a hill or a rooster’s feathers?
Albatross – bird or burden?
Amazon.
Ancient Greek myth about superior female race
Parrot
Or the obvious?
Politician
Self-serving millionaire in the making?
Liar? Thief?
Or mislead idealist?
