0 Guest Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 Of course pronunciations vary from region to region within the United States, let alone the world, as well as region to region within different states. From my southern Midwestern accent of Oklahoma, the following are all pronounced with little or no distinction: they're, their, there for, four, fore (usually yelled) sail, sell, sale by, bye, buy been, Ben, bin Penn (University), pin, pen Mountain Dew, Dr. Pepper, Pepsi (They are all pronounced "koke") tell, tail, tale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is probably more than one answer. I believe you are trying to find HOMONYMS, words that are pronounced the same, but have different meanings and spellings.
