What is a word spelled differently than pronounced?

This is a classic example of what we call a homophone. Here are some examples:

* Write (pronounced "rite") vs. Right (pronounced "right")

* There (pronounced "there") vs. Their (pronounced "their") vs. They're (pronounced "they are")

* See (pronounced "see") vs. Sea (pronounced "see")

* To (pronounced "too") vs. Two (pronounced "too") vs. Too (pronounced "too")
