| Is anyone good with Homonyms? I am trying to help my daughter out with her homework, some have been pretty hard. She has one left, that we cant get. Here is an example of the double homonym sentences she has... The neighbor's trusty steed neighs all night long. I think he's going to have a _______ _______. The answer is hoarse horse. One more is I'm moving up closer to the stage for the concert: I can't ________ ________. The answer is hear here. The one we need help with is I hear your friends Jill and Janet are excellent writers. In fact, I hear they're _________ ___________. If anyone could help or give some ideas, we would both appreciate it, me cause its bugging the crap out of me, lol.

| I don't even remember learning about homonyms (and I only graduated high school 4 years ago)! Isn't that horrible??

Banning Thread Dictator Donating Member | LOL, I cheated. I found a list of homonyms and went through letter-by-letter until I found one that made sense. Unfortunately, the OP has signed off and probably won't see it!

Banning Thread Dictator Donating Member | I can't believe kids are supposed to know that stuff. I didn't know what prose was until I was in college! No wonder no one's smarter than a fifth-grader!

| Way to Mike!!! That is an amazing use of homonyms if I do say so myself. Way to go....I'm impressed even with the use of the Homonyms List. I wonder what grade her daughter is in?......that was a hard one.
