Oops! I just realized that Seal Poet was incorrect also.

I'll give the solution later today.

You'll see why I originally thought the poet was correct -- but is not.

As a final clue -- He is right that Sally likes wait -- but not correct that she does not like rest.

She likes rest just fine.

Sally likes words that are homonyms.

one - won

two - too, to

deer - dear

red - read

meat - meet

cents - sense

Taylor & Hayes - tailor - haze

wait - weight

My error with Seal Poets post was that I forgot rest had a homonym,

rest - wrest


Sorry it was such a toughie. Hope you all enjoyed it anyway.

Good one, Frank, but tell me, aren't these answers homonyms?

Riding--Writing
Woks--Walks

Explain.

And Poet:
Sally likes to pee but she won't go.

Nope!

Quote:

Not true homonyms.

Actually, cents/sense is not a true homonym either -- but my guess is most English teachers/professors would allow it -- but not riding/writing; woks/walks.


Seal Poet

I agree with Lazarus and will add:

Sally likes trees and grass, but not lawn.
