Is the word stay a homograph?

Yes, the word "stay" is a homograph. Here's why:

* Stay (verb): To remain in a particular place or position. Example: "I will stay at home tonight."

* Stay (noun): A period of time spent in a place. Example: "We had a lovely stay at the hotel."

Although the spelling and pronunciation are the same, the words have different meanings and grammatical functions, making them homographs.
