Description

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
