And then they say my language is odd

Very True and who's fricking idea was it to spell knife with a K??????????
upvote for you!

Yeah, along with "knee", "knight", "gnome" (although a 'g', it's still silent), knave, knot.... The one who came up with that must be a real KNUCKLEHEAD ;)

IKR Y A K NOTHING GOES INTO THE K

ITS SILENT

English once lead us to lead a quiet life while hunters lead a duck shooting lead shells following my lead.

Now that was leading us nowhere 😜

Almost right... If they were spelled the same, absolutely.... "Right" is a homonym... It can be a direction in left and right, but it can also mean "okay", and it's spelled the same too.

So, heterographs then?

Yeah, good... Never heard that one, but then again, in my native language homonyms are common, but heterographs are not... I guess since Dutch is rather phonetic in spelling that's only obvious. Nice graphic... I should definitely put it in my language notes. ;)

I’d never heard the word homophone either—that I can recall. I saved the Venn diagram for future reference. :)

Oh, don't get me started on lie and lay!

Don't lie to me.... Just lie down onto the bed. Not even gonna talk about lay.
