Alan Cooper's Homonyms
|
| |
"When I was in the second grade,
my teacher introduced me to "homonyms," those words,
like "caret" and "carrot" that are pronounced the same,
but are spelled differently, and that have different meanings. The concept intrigued me, and for months, I maintained a
dog-eared pad of yellow paper with an ever-growing list of homonyms.
I eventually lost that yellow pad, but never my interest in these odd, quirky English words."
