18. Flower vs Flour? Words that Sound the Same but Have Different Spelling | Homophones


Listen Later

Homophones are words that are spelled differently but pronounced the same. No wonder English is so confusing! When we see the different spelling we assume that it should be pronounced differently, but English is not a phonetic language! So spelling and pronunciation don’t match!

In this episode, you’ll learn about some of the most common homophones in English and how to pronounce them. We’ll talk about:

1. flower – flour 2. here – hear 3. sun – son 4. there – their – they’re 5. right – write 6. road – rode 7. hoarse – horse 8. soul – sole 9. war – wore 10. see – sea 11. to – too – two
