What is a homonym for for?

There isn't a perfect homonym for "for" in the sense of a word that sounds exactly the same but has a different meaning. However, there are some words that are close, depending on the context:

"Four" sounds very similar and is often confused, especially in spoken language.

"Fore" is another option, particularly in golf, where it's a warning shout.

However, none of these are truly perfect homonyms because their meanings are distinct from "for."
