Reed's Homophones: a comprehensive book of sound-alike words

Reed's Homophones is the most comprehensive guide to sound-alike words in American English, including some frequently used foreign words. It's an ideal reference for students and teachers of English as a Second Language (ESL); creative writers; students in creative writing programs; and journalists, editors, and prooreaders. In addition to nearly 600 pairs or groups of actual homophones, the book also includes words that are frequently misspelled, mispronounced, mistyped, or misused – as well as neologisms and a few of the author’s pet peeves. Listings include definitions, parts of speech, and usage.
Some samples: “choral – coral”; “gored – gourd”; “load - lode –owed”; “patience – patients”; “quarts – quartz”; “right - rite - wright – write”; and “xenia - zinnia.”
