What is the homonym for bark?

The homonym for "bark" is "bark".

It's a bit of a trick question! "Bark" has two different meanings:

1. The outer covering of a tree: This is the one we're thinking of when we talk about "bark" as a homonym.

2. The sharp sound a dog makes: This is the other meaning of "bark".

So, the homonym for "bark" (meaning the tree covering) is also "bark" (meaning the dog sound).
