What is the term for a word with the same pronunciation as another word but with a different meaning?
A homophone is a word that is pronounced the same as another word but differs in meaning, and sometimes spelling. For example, 'flour' and 'flower' are homophones. Synonyms are words with similar meanings, antonyms are words with opposite meanings, and homonyms can refer to words that are either homophones or have the same spelling.
