Homonyms are words that sound the same and are spelled the same but have different meanings.
Here are some examples:
* Bat: A nocturnal flying mammal OR a piece of equipment used in baseball.
* Bear: A large mammal OR to tolerate or endure.
* Fine: A payment for a violation OR of high quality.
* Right: Correct OR the opposite of left.
It's important to note that homonyms are sometimes confused with homophones (words that sound the same but are spelled differently) and homographs (words that are spelled the same but sound different).
