Homonyms
By Tania Ghazanfar

2
Definition
Homonyms, broadly defined, are words which are homographs or homophones, or both. A more restrictive or technical definition sees homonyms as words that are simultaneously homographs and homophones – that is to say they have identical spelling and pronunciation, whilst maintaining different meanings.
3
Examples
'End' and 'Finish'.
We use these two words as they mean the same. Like, some students may say, 'I have ended my work'. They intend to use the word 'finish', but it comes out the wrong way.
4
Difference Between 'End' and 'Finish'.
Both, 'finish' and 'end' are synonyms of each other, but, their meaning is different. 'Finish' relates to end of any stage or part of that task, while 'end' is related to the stop or entire termination of that work. More briefly, finish co-relates to completion, but end co-relates to termination.
