This graphic provides a useful comparison of homonyms, homophones, and homographs, clearly explaining each concept with examples. It shows homonyms as multiple-meaning words (e.g., "scale"), homophones as words that sound alike but differ in meaning (e.g., "flower" and "flour"), and homographs as words with the same spelling but different meanings and pronunciations (e.g., "bass" for fish and "bass" for instrument). The chart is a helpful tool for students to differentiate between these commonly confused word types.
