| Homonyms Heterographs and Homophones! What are they? Find out below....  HI and welcome to    quirky cottages zany "pet friendly"  holiday accommodationDo 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  .
