What is the homograph for cabinet?

There is no single homograph for "cabinet" that is commonly used.

A homograph is a word that is spelled the same as another word but has a different meaning.

However, "cabinet" can be pronounced in two different ways, depending on its meaning:

* CAB-in-et (noun) - a piece of furniture with shelves, drawers, etc., typically used for storing dishes, clothes, or other items.

* cab-i-NET (noun) - a group of ministers who advise the head of government.

So, while there's no single word that's a true homograph, the pronunciation of "cabinet" itself can be considered a kind of homograph due to its two distinct pronunciations.
