Words that sound alike but mean the same?

There are no words that sound alike but mean the same. That would be a contradiction, as homophones are words that sound the same but have different meanings.

For example:

* there, their, they're

* to, too, two

* hear, here

If you are looking for words that have similar meanings, then we would be talking about synonyms, not homophones.

Let me know if you'd like examples of synonyms or if you have another word puzzle in mind!
