What is the homonym for degrees?

The homonym for "degrees" is "degrees".

While it might seem like a trick question, it's important to remember that homonyms are words that sound the same but have different meanings and spellings. In this case, the word "degrees" has multiple meanings, which can create confusion:

* Degrees as in units of measurement for angles or temperature:

* "The temperature is 20 degrees Celsius."

* "The angle measures 90 degrees."

* Degrees as in academic qualifications:

* "She earned a Bachelor's degree in English."

* "He has a doctorate in physics."

Therefore, "degrees" is its own homonym because it has multiple meanings and can be used in different contexts.
