What is a homograph for pupil?

The homograph for "pupil" is pupil.

This is a bit of a trick question! "Pupil" has two distinct meanings:

* A student: This is the most common meaning.

* The black part of the eye: This refers to the opening in the iris that allows light to enter the eye.

Both of these words are spelled the same (homograph), but they have different meanings and are pronounced differently.
