    I'm surprised you're allowed to use the word "homonym" because it has the word "homo" in it.

    Yep .. it seems to be allowed, and only now I am fully aware of the risk I took ( excluded, banished from the Lounge, not allowed to talk in SOTW, etc ...)

      Heard that phrase on the radio this morning and it occurred to me, if you're insane, how can you plead not guilty using "reason"? Seems rather contradictory to me! ;P

          As a non-parent, suddenly that explains a lot.

            yeah.. for sure... temporary insanity. we'd live in a perfect world. I hope there are valid ways to demonstarte that moment of insanity

              In which case the pleader should be instantly neutered and locked in a padded cell for a substantial term. I'm a great believer in eugenics :laugh:

                  wow ... until now I never heard of heteronyms but distinction based on sound seems fuzzy to me, - spelling is well defined, but sounds ... this would mean that a homonym can also sometimes be a heteronym, or did I miss your point ... Cheers,

                      Oops ... in some way I thought so. It would be thus "learning by playing", which is BTW quite a good outcome ...
