    Play and Learn - Homonyms

    Since we all love words.

    Pick a word you have trouble with, or you've seen misused because it's the wrong spelling of the homonym.

    I'll go first....

    You are right Oz. They are verbs and nouns. Not really homonyms.

    omg i could give you a list a mile long of homophones that make me cringe when people misuse them.

    right/write

    week/weak

    course/coarse

    rap/wrap

    pole/poll

    peek/peak

    board/bored

    and here are a couple that aren't really homophones but have nearly the same pronounciation and i've seen them misused lots.

    accept/except

    affect/effect
