Homonym:a word that has the same spelling and the same pronunciation as another world,but a different meaning Same spelling,different meaning Imagine,then a situation where two words are spelt and pronounced exactly the same way,but have completely different meanings.Welcome to the world of homonyms.Take,for example,the word‘fail'---it can be a kind of festival,and adjective to describe the color of your hair or how you should play a game. Don't take it literally So how do you know which meaning someone is referring to?---You don't,except by the context.Obviously,if someone asks you to‘give them a hand',they don't want you to remove what is at the end of your arm. What's in a name? Sometimes even the context doesn't help much---the result can be amusing.These sentences play with the double meaning of a noun: I used to be a banker,but I lost interest. Have you heard about the cross-eyed teacher who couldn't control his pupils? A small boy swallowed some coins and had to go to hospital.When his grandmother phoned to ask how he was,the nurse said:‘No change yet'. More ambiguity And these examples play with the different meanings of a verb: I wondered why the ball was getting bigger.Then it hit me. No one knew she had a dental implant until it came out in a conversation. A boiled egg in the morning is hard to beat. Double trouble And sometimes a word can be a noun and a verb,but have different meanings.Can you work this one out? Time flies like an arrow.Fruit flies like a banana. If you like these homonyms,you will be pleased to know that English has plenty more! Explanations of jokes in the text I used to be banker,but I lost interest.(I became bored with the job/I lost money) Have you heard about the cross-eyed teacher who couldn't control his pupils?(students/parts of his eyes) A small boy swallowed some coins and had to go to hospital.When his grandmother phoned to ask how he was,the nurse said:‘No change yet'.(no difference in the situation/no money) I wondered why the ball was getting bigger.Then it hit me.(the ball hit me/I suddenly realized) No one knew she had a dental implant until it came out in a conversation.(became known/fell out) A boiled egg in the morning is hard to beat.(can't be better/difficult to mix with a fork) Time flies like an arrow.(time goes quickly) Fruit flies like a banana.(insects enjoy eating fuit.) |
