A word that is spelled the same as another but has a different meaning, history, and sometimes pronunciation called a:?

That word is called a homograph.

* Example: "bow" (a weapon) and "bow" (to bend at the waist)

Let me know if you'd like to know more about homographs, or if you'd like to see some other examples!
