I've made a list of homonyms/homophones that are commonly switched, with illustrative examples. Why? Have you met me? (I just like making lists, actually. That's why. :grin: )

Thought it might be of use to all the authors out there who, like me, have to look the things up sometimes to figure out which one goes where.

Here there be homophones

Feel free to tell me about any I might have left off.

Walter ([livejournal.com profile] squidgiepdx) called to chat and beta, and the word 'cue' came up. Then this madness happened. We're equally responsible. (And there was just as much giggling as you're imagining.) :grin:



Queue queue

A new hair salon opens in London, specializing in Chinese men’s pigtails. It’s very popular, so there’s always a wait.

There’s a queue queue.

Where men eat moo shu.

Some in blue shoes.

Cats say 'mew mew'.

And some shoot - pew pew.

The pavement entertainment is Lulu, wearing a muumuu. Talking to Tutu.

Desmond, that is.


And that’s the new news. Back to you, Hugh.
