Is homograph a synonym of homophone or homonym?
- parasquid 6y agotechnically neither; homographs are two words written the same way but with different meaning. homophones are two words that sound the same but written differently. homonyms are somewhat a combination: written and sound the same, but have different meaning. since synonym means "having the same meaning" you might get away with considering a homograph a synonym of homonym, but it's best to be precise in these cases.
