A homophone is a word that sounds the same as another word but has a different meaning and spelling.
While there are words that sound somewhat similar to "hurled," none are exact matches:
* World: This is close in sound but has a very different meaning.
* Hurl: This is the past tense of "hurl," meaning to throw forcefully.
It's important to note that while there are no true homophones, there are words that are near homophones, which share a similar sound but differ slightly in pronunciation.
