What is a homograph for carnival?

There is no perfect homograph for "carnival" in the English language. A homograph is a word that has the same spelling as another word but a different meaning and pronunciation. "Carnival" has a distinct pronunciation and meaning, and there isn't another word that shares both.

However, there are some words that share the same spelling but have different meanings:

* "Carnival" (noun) - a period of revelry, typically associated with a festival or celebration.

* "Carnation" (noun) - a type of flower.

While these words have the same spelling, their meanings and pronunciations are entirely different. So, while there isn't a true homograph, "carnation" comes closest.
