Now I am quite clear about these confusing homo – hetro words. Thank you very much.

Yes, l.agree.
Homograph – Same spelling, different sounds. In this way it is like a heterophone – different sounds/pronunciations
There really is no need to mention the differences in meaning because none of the words mean the same as any other.
Nearest would be similar – synonyms.

Phew! Fun and interesting.

Hi Jaime, yes you’d be right, that is actually another way to define it!

Wow, Phil, you nail it again, something complex you get it easy to understand and remember.
A question, I would call to Heteronym as “Heterophone”, it has any sense to you?
Thanks so much for your teachings
