this is part of a website my German friend told me about when he was here in September '09. I am sorry I think no one will be interested in the things I am interested in. I was just taught that when I grew up. I learned I existed to serve other people. Now I am trying to un-learn being an un-certified slave.

Ok = I thought it was interesting that the word waive can be used serval ways in english but also in Deutsch. This is a cross-cultural homonym? or is it heteronym? I always get those two messed up.

HOMONYM: One of two or more words having the same sound and often the same spelling but different meanings. Examples: quail (cower), and quail (bird) fair (appearance), fair (county fair), and fair (reasonable).

HOMOPHONE: One of two or more words pronounced the same but different in meaning, origin, and sometimes spelling. Examples: cite, sight, and site; sea and see; your and you're; bow and bough.

HOMOGRAPH: One of two or more words spelled alike but different in origin, meaning, and sometimes pronunciation. Examples: bow of a ship, a bow and arrow, and a bow (deference/manners).

HETERONYM: One of two or more words that are spelled the same but that differ inpronunciation and meaning. Examples: bass (voice) and bass (fish); polish (shine) and Polish (from Poland); tear (rip) and tear (from eye).
