Homophone Central - homophone database
Welcome to our homophone database...much more than a list…the vault of the site
Below are links to homophones for each letter of the English alphabet.
Step one - Select the letter where you would like to begin. You can start any where.
Step two - Like pebbles, these homophones have been collected over the last twenty plus years from various locations and disciplines. Choose and click on a word in the list.
This final step will take you to that word/set page.
**Please be patient with us as this last step is still under construction. New things will be added regularly. As the basic set scaffolding is put in place (set words, phonetics, short definitions)the link will be activated.
Reading here, reading there -
reading everywhere
We believe in reading widely and reading often. Certainly, you would not expect Jack London to use the same vocabulary as Robert Munsch. That’s part of the wonder of English. Or as Gyles Brandreth wrote, ‘the Joy of Lex’, in his book with this title, over forty years ago.
Hunters for a homophone database
As homophone hunters, we have no qualms about crossing lines between disciplines, genres or age-appropriate levels. Nor do we think you should be bound by such restrictions. We do, however, avoid horror, pornography and hate literature.
Click a letter below to start browsing. Linger over a word or hike across the virtual landscape…ah, the options…START ANYWHERE
