Homophones are words that sound the same but have different meanings and often different spellings. One common pair of homophones in English is:

Pair:

  • "Their" (pronoun): This word is used to indicate possession or to show that something belongs to a group of people, often referring to more than one person.
  • "There" (adverb or pronoun): This word is used to indicate a location or place, as in "over there" or "there is a book on the table."

These two words are pronounced the same way (homophones) but have different meanings and uses in sentences.
