A homophone is a word that is pronounced the same as another word but has a different meaning and often a different spelling. For example, "pair" (a set of two) and "pear" (a type of fruit) are homophones. They sound alike but refer to different things. Homophones can be a source of confusion in written language and are often used in puns and wordplay.
