What are the homonyms of light and give example?

There are no perfect homonyms for "light" in the sense of being the same spelling and pronunciation. However, there are some words that sound similar and have different meanings, depending on the context:

1. "Lite" (often spelled with an "e")

* Meaning: A shortened version of "light," usually referring to something with fewer calories or a lighter version of a product.

* Example: "I'll have the lite version of the soda."

2. "Sight"

* Meaning: The ability to see, the act of seeing, or something that is seen.

* Example: "The new car is a sight to behold."

While these words sound similar, they are not true homonyms because they are spelled differently.

It's important to remember that the context of the sentence will usually make the meaning of the word clear.
