Homonyms Heterographs and Homophones! What are they? Find out below....         HI           and welcome to            quirky cottages   zany "pet friendly" holiday accommodation         Do you know      what a heterograph              or     a homophone is......??      Also, do you know what         a homonym is?    I have used alot of them     in my "wacky" website!! A heterograph is a word that sounds the same as another, but has a different spelling and meaning. For example... there is    "you" And a female sheep is called a "ewe"  . Both sound the same, but have different spelling and different meanings. A homophone is.... When a word has the same sound, has the same or different spelling but means something totally different! for example.. a plane "plain" paper then also, a plain, like in an a vast open field And a homonym, has the same spelling, same sound but also means something diferent For example... A patient when used as a noun, is a person who requires medical attention , like a  pateint in hostpital. Then there is also "patient" which is an adjective that describes the calm temperament of a person. A patient person is someone who can wait long periods of time for something, without complaining or getting upset. This by the way, is a very good skill to learn!! It is very comforting and calming to be around patient people. Easy going and happy people are often very patient!! A person is impatient, (which means the opposite), often get upset and angry when they have to wait long preiods of time for things or have to do things that take a long time!! It's certainly not realxing to be around impatient people.           There is a very old saying that I love,      GOOD THINGS COME TO THOSE WHO WAIT!!!! In my  quirky website, I have used a lot of pictures and photos instead of using words. I also have used many heterographs, homophones and homonyms, using . See how many you can find through out my website.                             Good Luck!! Believe me,  youwill need a lot of patients                                               ( meaning patience!!!) to look through all my web pages!            To check out      quirky cottages please click here Kids, for fun and quirky little poems click here   For all other info relating to Coochiemudlo Island and more.. please click on the various headings OR icons down the upper left hand side of this page.
