Homophones

Homophones are two words which sound the same, but which are spelled differently. There are a lot of homophones, here are a few:


	dear/deer		hear/here		bare/bear

	to/two/too		their/there/they're	rain/rein

	pair/pear		sea/see			I/eye

	new/knew		red/read		four/fore/for

	blue/blew		write/right		oar/ore/or

	won/one			sum/some		witch/which

	steel/steal		beet/beat		fir/fur

	wait/weight		wear/where		week/weak

	sent/cent		meat/meet		in/inn

You should spend a few moments to see if you can add a few homophone pairs (or even triplets) to this list!
